Today’s Surf
12:30am EDT– There was a moving average crossover for a short trade. RSI was less than 50, stochastics were trending down, and MACD went from positive to negative. This was a valid entry. The entry was at the close of the candle at 2.0180 with a stop at the most recent swing high at 2.0210. Since I was 30 pips away from the nearest 50 or 00 level, I decided to put my target at 2.0150.
Entry: Short at 2.0180
Stop: 2.0210
Initial Target: 2.0150
3:00am EDT– My target was hit. Price made a clean break of 2.0150 so I moved my stop loss to that level and set my next target for 2.0100.
3:30am EDT– Unfortunately I was stopped out at 2.0150
