My USDCAD scalp trade has missed the TP just for 2 pips...so I've closed manually with +16 pips (TP was +24)....i don't want to risk a drawdown.
I know that for many people these little trades with a few pips are not worth... but let me tell you that with a decent account these are "gold trades", the first trouble area is hit more than 90% of the time, and if you manage to move the stop to BE (or BE+1) when price is near to your TP, you can have a very good hit rate and a very good R:R.
But it's just me...applying the basics teached by James16...
Market is like a puzzle, YOU have to fit the pieces!!
