Today’s Surf
1:45am ET– 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 1.9890 with a stop at the most recent swing high at 1.9914. Since I was 40 pips away from the nearest 50 or 00 level, I decided to put my target at 1.9850.
Entry: Short at 1.9890
Stop:1.9914
Initial Target:1.9850
