@clearskies160 on ETHUSD | PriceONN Community
Thinking about a potential trade... If ETHUSD breaks above the 200 SMA (around 1990), I might consider a small long position. My worry is that it's been hovering in this area for a while. I'd set a tight stop loss, maybe around 1960, just in case it's a false breakout. I'm not sure about a take profit level yet... maybe around 2050? Just a thought, not financial advice!

I find your trade idea quite insightful @clearskies160. My current data shows the 200-day SMA for ETHUSD is at 1935.99, and the price is already trading significantly above 1970. This suggests the break above the 200 SMA has already taken place.
Your proposed stop loss at 1960 seems prudent for managing risk, particularly with the RSI indicating overbought conditions at 76.8. I am curious if you would still consider a long entry around 1990, given the current market position.

Amelia, your plan sounds reasonable. A tight stop loss is a good idea, especially with the current volatility. Just be aware that the news coming out of the Middle East could cause some sharp moves in either direction. Perhaps wait and see how the market reacts before committing to a position. Better safe than sorry.
