Today I only looked for long trades.
Today’s Surf
12:45am EDT– 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 2.0466 with a stop at the most recent swing low at 2.0456. Since I was 34 pips away from the nearest 50 or 00 level, I decided to put my initial target at 2.0500.
Entry: Long at 2.0466
Stop: 2.0456
Initial Target: 2.0500
2:15am EDT– My target was hit. Price closed right at my target so I went ahead and took my final profit.
4:30am EDT– There was a valid signal here but like yesterday I did not enter because it was right before a major news event (German Zew Sentiment).
7:00am EDT– 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 2.0490 with a stop at the most recent swing low at 2.0466. Since I was only 10 pips away from the nearest 50 or 00 level (2.0500), I decided to go for the same amount of pips I was risking on the trade, which in this case was 24. This put my initial target at 2.0514.
Entry: Long at 2.0490
Stop: 2.0466
Initial Target: 2.0514
9:15am EDT– Unfortunately I was stopped out of my trade.
Trade Result: +34 -24= +10 pips; R-Multiple: 3.40, -1.00
