{quote} Hi lemercenaire, Can you please let me know what is the red line in the chart? is it a MA or some other indicator. would you be kind enough to share your scalping strategy? Thanks in advance.
Hi. The red line is a 20 ema.

The strategy, such as it is, uses the Lightning Kumo from the Japanese Thunder & Lightning method.

I combine the layout with classic Bob Volman style entries - pull backs into the momentum, rejection candles, micro S+D clear outs and breaks from contraction.

You will also occasionally see me mention Spike-Hunting, including today. This is completely different and stands on its own.

The settings for the Lightning Kumo are:

7, 12, 15 and 6. Drop the 6 if you are using mt4.

1-min or tick chart.

Find and use your own preferred way to establish a directional bias.

This is not for the faint hearted or rookie trader, especially using The DAX. It is very much a barnstorming style of trading and will kill the unwary quicker than a .50 Cal to the head.

If that hasn't put you off, then feel free to ask questions as you practice on your demo account

Had a Cruiser once upon a time. Looked great sitting at its mooring, lol.

Sails seem like an awful lot of hard work

Black Sails is one of my favourite tv series though...

Forgot about The Billy Bar.

Once again, the range seems too big. Came in at 26.

I would have had a short bias, ignored the long break and have gone in on a WZ short back into the body. It's moved about +15 so far, so the +5 would have been safe.

Playing it straight, the break North was a fail.

{quote} Hi Patje, my main Trade bar is the 08-00 to 08-15 (15 minute bar). Once the next bar opens I Long or Short the break. If it fails I counter. i also do this with the 00-00 4 hour bar, but am more selective. with the 00-00 4 hour bar I can chase the daily range. ( or part of it). Hope this helps.
thanks Billytt sounds simple, but guess it aint that easy....will keep my eye on it......saw that over the last weeks... the odds break out/fake out where 50/50..so trading it will take a lot of practice especially the counter part ...will try it on demo the next weeks...to see if i can get a feeling for it .....btw enjoy the house in the forest....

Old Ichi can get altered to suit one's style. I am using the slower ma on it.( But on those whippy starts/opens it will pay to wait until things calm down.

Waiting for the next bar makes sense for various reasons.

Because by then the market has settled down and found direction - not every time of course. Plus with USA any major news releases come out 13.30.

Just figure out what works for you.

Ended my Dow foray with three losers on the trot. So I have stopped for the day.
Bound to happen statistically, I suppose. But I still feel ( Claudia might be reading this).....very cross indeed, with myself

Worse, looking at the Tech100 ( Nas).....went up no probs. Worse....it was on my screen but I never looked at it. I kept looking at the Dow.

I feel better now nurse.

Bit like 'Pick and mix sweets.' Take the bits that you like and test the resulting mix. Then plough your own furrow. You can never replicate someone else's approach because you are not them ( like Oscar Wilde - "I wish I had said that" originally.)
