Today’s Surf
2:30am EST– There was a moving average crossover for a short trade. RSI was less than 50, stochastics were trending down and MACD was positive and losing value. This was valid entry.
The entry was at the close of the candle at 1.6618 with a stop at the most recent swing high at 1.6646. Since I was 18 pips away from the nearest 50 or 00 level, I decided to put my initial target at 1.6600.
Entry: Short at 1.6618 Stop: 1.6646 Target: 1.6600
3:00am EST– My target was hit. Price didn’t make a clean break so I took my final profit. I exited at the close of the candle at 1.6601. (+17 pips)
9:30am EST– There was a valid signal here but because it was right before news I did not enter.
Trade Result: +17 pips R-Multiple: 0.60
