This strategy snagged a couple of early exits on its open euro positions, but luckily these were able to lock in some pips. Take a look!
If this is the first time you’re reading about the SMA Crossover Pullback system, make sure you look at the trading rules and risk management adjustments first.
EUR/USD had a short position left open in its earlier run, but the signal may have come a wee bit late as price already bottomed out soon after.
This was followed by a Stochastic pullback signal to go long, but it looks like yet another crossover is looming.
GBP/USD scored a big win when it hit its full profit target in the previous update, and the downtrend is still going strong for this pair.
As for EUR/JPY, the pair had a short position still open from a few weeks back that had its trailing stop activated for a risk-free play. This one hit the early exit on a pullback and bagged a few pips before a bullish crossover materialized.
A long position was opened when Stochastic climbed out of the oversold region almost immediately after the crossover.
Here’s a look at the latest positions:

I know it’s not much compared to the other week’s gains, but I ain’t complainin’ since these small wins were from early exits. Besides, these could be more than enough to yield impressive numbers for this quarter!
