Today’s Surf
2:00am EST– There was a moving average crossover for a long trade. RSI was greater than 50, stochastics were trending up and MACD went from negative to positive. This was a valid entry.
The entry was at the close of the candle at 1.6302 with a stop at the most recent low at 1.6271. Since I was 48 pips away from the nearest 50 or 00 level, I decided to put my initial target at 1.6350.
Entry: Long at 1.6302 Stop: 1.6271 Target: 1.6350
3:00am EST– Unfortunately I was stopped out of my trade.
3:45am EST– There was a moving average crossover for a long trade. RSI was greater than 50, stochastics were trending up and MACD went from negative to positive. This was a valid entry.
The entry was at the close of the candle at 1.6291 with a stop at the most recent low at 1.6264. Since I was only 9 pips away from the nearest 50 or 00 level (1.6300), I decided to go for the same amount of pips I was risking, which in this case was 27. This put my initial target at 1.6318.
Entry: Long at 1.6291 Stop: 1.6264 Target: 1.6318
6:15am EST– Unfortunately I was stopped out of my trade.
