Today’s Surf
1:15am EST– There was a moving average crossover for a long trade. RSI was greater than 50, MACD went from negative to positive, but Stochastics were still trending down. This cancelled out the signal and I did not enter.
7:00am 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 1.4314 with a stop at the most recent swing low at 1.4283. Since I was 36 pips away from the nearest 50 or 00 level, I decided to put my initial target at 1.4350.
