Today’s Surf
2:30am ET– 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 2.0214 with a stop at the most recent swing low at 2.0185. Since I was 36 pips away from the nearest 50 level, I decided to put my target at 2.0250.
Entry: Long at 2.0214
Stop: 2.0185
Initial Target: 2.0250
3:30am ET– My target was hit. The price did NOT make a clean break of the 2.0250 level so I took my final profit.
10:30am ET– 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 2.0195 with a stop at the most recent swing low at 2.0139. Since I was only 5 pips away from the nearest 00 level (2.0200), I decided to go for the same amount of pips I was risking, which in this case was 56 pips. This put my target at 2.0251.
