Today’s Surf
7:15am 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 a valid signal. I entered at the close of the candle at 1.6020 with a stop at the most recent swing high at 1.6053. Since I was 20 pips away from the nearest 50 or 00 level I decided to put my initial target at 1.6000.
Entry: Short at 1.6020; Stop: 1.6053; Target: 1.6000
6:30am EST- My target was hit. Price did not make a clean break so I took my final profit. I exited at 1.6002. (+18 pips)
Trade Result: +18 pips R-Multiple: 0.54
