High Price: 1.2776

Difference between High Price and Low Price
= 1.2776 - 1.2659
= 117 pips

Therefore,
Stop Loss = 117 pips
Take Profit = 117 pips

(Risk Reward Ratio = 1 : 1)


How the Trade Went

Price hits the high price from 10-11 a.m. New York Time. (10-11 p.m Singapore time)

Between 12 - 1 a.m. , Price hits my Take Profit.

Monday Result: 117 pips - 7 pip (Spread) = + 110 pips
