Looking at a Buy for NZD USD

FX:NZDUSD   New Zealand Dollar / U.S. Dollar
I like to pair with the Dollar Index and I feel like that will be bearish. If that's the case, then NZD USD should be bearish. I'm taking a demo trade on this as I've been studying institutional trading. Therefore, I plan to get more sharp on this. Right now price is trading up from a bullish orderblock. Hopefully it holds and continues up. I'll be collecting 10 pips on this trade and will take a 90%partial, break even on my SL, and then let it run from there. I have another trade in on a different pair that will be about 10 pips as well... Goal is 20 pips on the day! We'll see how it plays out. Proceed at your own risk.

Worked out well... Moved slow for sure but we hit our 10 pip goal...

Took partials at 10 pips!! Moved Stop loss to break even and took 99% profit.

Main reason I took partials on this trade is because my other trade hit and the time is already 9am, so market will slow down in about 2 hrs. I sold USDCHF for 28 pips so I actually exceeded my goal today!
Comment:
A Better entry could have certainly warranted more pips... I got a late start when I looked at the charts this morning...
Comment:
stopped out at break even... Glad I got what i wanted out of this trade lol... Gonna be paper trading the rest to see if the target gets hit based on my original trade idea.
Comment:
Strong sell knocked out the paper trade. Not surprised since I was watching DXY sweep the lows on the 15 min chart. All good. This was only intended as a quick scalp. I always set my TPs very ambitiously wihth the intent of being ready to take partials and collapse the trade as soon asI hit my goals.
Trade closed: stop reached
