12:30am EST– There was a moving average crossover for a long trade. RSI was greater than 50, stochastics were trending up and MACD was negative and gaining value. This was a valid entry.
The entry was at the close of the candle at 1.6407 with a stop at the most recent low at 1.6396. Since I was 43 pips away from the nearest 50 or 00 level, I decided to put my initial target at 1.6450.
