Today’s Surf
1:30am EST– There was a moving average crossover for a short trade. RSI was less than 50, stochastics were trending down and MACD went from positive to negative. This was a valid entry.
The entry was at the close of the candle at 1.5380 with a stop at the most recent swing high at 1.5389. Since I was 30 pips away from the nearest 50 or 00 level, I decided to put my initial target at 1.5350.
Entry: Short at 1.5380 Stop: 1.5389 Target: 1.5350
2:45am EST– Unfortunately I was stopped out of my trade. (-9 pips)
