Today’s Surf
12:45am 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 1.2475 with a stop at the most recent swing low at 1.2463. Since I was 25 pips away from the nearest 50 or 00 level I decided to put my initial target at 1.2500.
Entry: Long at 1.2475 Stop: 1.2463 Target: 1.2500
2:45am EST– My target was hit. Price didn’t make a clean break so I took my final profit. I got out at 1.2498. (+23 pips)
