Today’s Surf
2:15am EST– There was a moving average crossover for a short trade. RSI was less than 50, MACD was positive and losing value, but stochastics were still trending up. This cancelled out the signal and I did not enter.
4:15am 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 entry.
The entry was at the close of the candle at 1.2969 with a stop at the most recent swing high at 1.2991. Since I was 19 pips away from the nearest 50 or 00 level, I decided to put my initial target at 1.2950.
