3:15am 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 1.2712 with a stop at the most recent swing high at 1.2731. Since I was 12 pips away from the nearest 50 or 00 level, I decided to put my initial target at 1.2700.
Entry: Short at 1.2712 Stop: 1.2731 Target: 1.2700
