Today’s Surf
2:45am EST– There was a moving average crossover for a long trade. RSI was greater than 50, stochastics were trending up and MACD was negative and gaining value. This was a valid entry.
The entry was at the close of the candle at 1.2572 with a stop at the most recent swing low at 1.2542. Since I was 28 pips away from the nearest 50 or 00 level I decided to put my initial target at 1.2600.
Entry: Long at 1.2572 Stop: 1.2542 Target: 1.2600
4:15am EST– My target was hit. Since news was coming out at 4:30am EST, I decided to lock in as many pips as possible and manually exited my trade. I got out at 1.2505. (+33 pips)
Trade Result: +33 pips R-Multiple: 1.10
