6:15am 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 1.5661 with a stop at the most recent low at 1.5605. Since I was 39 pips away from the nearest 50 or 00 level I decided to put my initial target at 1.5700.
