The 35/50 has to happen when the candle closes through the 35sma, and 50ema. On my feed it closed just below the 50 making it not a valid entry.

I was afraid of that... damn... well....

in this case.. what u guys would do... close manually... or wait to hit my SL "which is anyway rather small.. just about 20 pips"

Thanks Gladis. Looking at your entry price, u didn't wait for any confirmation of the bounce, but just took the trade as soon as it touched the 50, right? Is this usually a fairly reliable trade? Do you only take it if price has not touched the 50 for a while?
