Awesome. Main issue was settings on 8 & 200 moving averages. Different settings in the saved files but what you have posted has my issues solved.
Thank you :thumbup:

Dow Jones this morning

We had a buy signal just before NY opened, everything was blue and please notice the support of the 200 EMA that also helped to make a decision to go long.

When to exit the trade and cash it:
Remember that the buy signal was given at the same direction of the Trend,
1st option exit: If we have Divergence against our trade
2nd option exit: When price hits daily pivot
3rd option exit: When price hits the monthly and weekly pivot

Always pay attention to economic news, 30 mins after NY open, all news were against US Dollar making the price plunge.

2nd target reached, price touched the Monthly pivot.

It's always very risky to wait for the 2nd target, you should have a good money management.

Next week I'll try to post another trade,
Take care and enjoy your weekend

Hi,

You only trade when New York opened?

Yes, I start trading only when NY opens until noon. (9.30am to 12.00 Eastern Time).

I live in US so I'm sleeping when London session starts. Sometimes I trade the Asian session when high impact news hit the Aussi and Yen.

I am a scalper so I prefer to trade when there's high volume in the markets.
