It's very easy when looking back but totally different in reality I think. Could you please show us your auto backtest result of recent 100 or 1000 trades ?

{quote} would love to see your write-up on that mate. is 'leaving more room' arbitrary?
I will try to explain that over the next week with some examples. I actually had this in mind earlier, but have not traded for about 2 weeks. The first week because of Wacken, then the second due to health problems.

I'm new to FF, but I just wanted to post because this thread caught my attention and I wanted to drop my 2 cents after trading for 5 years... The most success I've ever had was making my trading strategy so simple, dumbing it down to the point where I asked myself "there's no way this can work right?? it's way too simple"....

No reason to make this more complicated than it is, nice trading venividivici!

I hope Wacken was great. Hopefully didn't cause of the health issues... Joking!

Hope you are better soon mate. Judas Priest and Limp Bizkit - nice lineup.

Reason why you should trail your stop (let your profit run).

Pretty nice entry mate. I checked how it would look on my chart... Well... We could say...Be at the right time, on the right chart.

Lovely catch!

Sorry posting to your thread my friend, but I took a little scalp on EUR/USD. I got annoyed of colorful charts with tons of indicators... Don't mind the text, it's for me. However, if you want to know more (well maybe you saw my thread) let me know in PM. I'm no longer explaining it publicly.

As i see you watch some of other pairs too. Are you concerned about correlations to the pairs? If i see a chance in the GBPUSD, then maybe another good chance, to the other direction in the NZDUSD? What is your opinion?

Hello everyone. I have read in silence and it is still not clear to me how this extremely discretionary trading methodology works. If anyone would like to explain it, it would be very welcome. Meanwhile, I wish you all good pips.

I do not understand the meaning of this post. show your gain by saying nothing. does such a post make sense? either you explain how you get them or it doesn't even make sense to read it

I recommend you watch the pairs together, not a single chart..the issue is momentum..if price is moving in a faster pace in one direction its easy to get in and make money, the biggest problem most scalpers have is when price is moving slower, which happens alot during the day, its slow and choppy and moving sideways..and price looks like its going to reverse and they sit there with an open trade and it doesnt, so when you have all the pairs open together you can spot faster momentum on one pair when others arent moving, giving you better trades.

i just wanted to show that scalping on the 1 minute chart is possible if you know how price moves based on liquidity and volatility. It would take me too much time to go through this and explain it but there are some good videos from Chris Lori on YouTube that might help you

Trading is only difficult if traders lack sufficient expertise of fundamental and technical analysis and jump into trading with no sufficient knowledge, only with practice and consistent positive approach help to understand market better.
