THX Dimmi,

I was PM'd and asked to log my scalp trades for a session.....it is hard to explain why I take the trades that I do....just not enough time to type and trade, I did my best to show the life of a scalper....even if only for one session.
Good luck to you

Decision Time is drawing near as News approaches.....

Do I want to go flat into the news?

Do I lighten up on my risk?

Do I put on a hedge?

Do I put on Stops and ride out the news?

Between 0820 & 0825 I'll have these desicions made.....or maybe the market will give me what I want!!

Hmm .. update ..

I moved all my SL to 3730.
Moved all my SL to 3745.
Seems like the support levels are rising, perhaps a breakout through 3800 is imminent.

Gonna go out and watch Harry Potter LOL.

Hi Lug,

I think you may be correct, read an article stating that 80% of "RETAIL" traders were shorting the E/U....which can only mean one thing.....The commercials are selling to them as the price moves up. As I said last night, skuttlebutt is an option barrier at 1.3800 which I think comes off at the 1000am NY cut on 7/13/07 Friday.... Does the EU have enough gas for 1.4000?????.....keep that trailing stop close. Nice trades BTW. Good Luck.

Well it did break 1.3800....with a whimper......not very bullish, and T/A wise will be Negative if this day closes down.

FxJarhead:

1.3800 was rather anticlimatic. No sizeable push up and no
big crash down. May be indicative of ranging for much of
next week. But then, who knows?

Hi Winter,

"Anticlimatic" was a GREAT term for the "break" of 1.3800 ! Being a short term/daytrader....prone to scalping, I'd just eat up this pair if it went into another ranging period.
"Who knows" is correct also.....Best advice I could ever offer anyone remotely interested.....just trade what the market gives us, and don't get married to a trade or a "directional belief".

Take care

FXJarhead, I couldn't agree with you more! When I stopped "chasing the trend" and simply traded what the market gave, I began to see a TREMENDOUS jump in my winning trades. Yes, it's a good idea to keep an eye on the trend as in "the trend is your friend", but - if there's pips to be made against the trend, follow my system and make the trade! Moment by moment, bar by bar, trade as the market gives, as I say. Well, maybe someone else said that.
