Today’s Surf
3:00am 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 1.5855 with a stop at the most recent swing low at 1.5812. Since I was 45 pips away from the nearest 50 or 00 level, I decided to put my initial target at 1.5900.
Entry: Long at 1.5855 Stop: 1.5812 Target: 1.5900
5:00am EST- My target was hit. Price did not make a clean break so I took my final profit. I exited at 1.5895. (+40 pips)
Trade Result: +40 pips (Not including spread) R-Multiple: 0.93
