Earlier GBPJPY short from 236.63 just closed at 236.53 (+10)

Oct pips +2170 pips
A/C Bal Oct +19.88%

That's 100 closed trades in Oct averaging 21.7 pips each

Nothing likely to get hit unless Asia goes on a huge yen buying spree. Feeling tired so will call it a day - I think it's been around a 300 pip day.

Happy trading all

Kind Regards
Steve

Wait, isnt the spread on G/J 8 pips, making that a 2 pip gain? Or is this a gain of +10 over the spread?

+10 over the spread, read his last couple of posts
Trade what you see, not what you think.

Thanks Karmo

Well, missed all the action today and got a busy evening too. Should be able to close out an old USDJPY short at 115.70 sometime later.

I think I'm too greedy to ever be a scalper..I look at the GJ chart and all I can think is: Why take 10? 20? Ther's literally hundreds waiting...or for a scalp at least 30-80 on a good round trip from a sound kickoff...

I don't think I could do it

One of my last few problems though, really.

You seem to manage though ;p

Thanks Ryan,

The method I used for the first 6 months or so was a little crude but with a little modification proved fairly successful. When a pair trended it was very profitable - when it got stuck in choppy consolidation was the issue.

I'm enjoying the scalping at the moment but what I have learned on the daily charts has proved invaluable.

Kind Regards
Steve

LOL, I do know where you're coming from and often it is the 10 & 20 pip trades that make up the bulk of the trades. However, I will leave positions open on occasion if I'm pretty confident I can grab more.

Bottom line though is that they add up and now over 2200 pips this month (see below) and over 4500 pips in the last 4 weeks scalping.

Think how many stellar three or four hundred pip trades that equates to.

OK, two positions just opened & closed on GBPJPY...

short 236.31 closed 236.01 (+30)
short 236.19 closed 236.09 (+10)

October pips +2230
A/C Increase Oct +20.49%
No of successive profitable trades 284

Kind Regards
Steve

You seem to be scalping well !!! But somewhere in the past I remember you saying that sitting in front of the screen all day was not the goal... ( or was I the one saying that ?? !! )

I don't want to be a full time trader... but I do want the full time income from trading... !!! Scalping does not really fit into that thinking...

Of coarse, if you are scalping while taking a hot bath as you already said... well that actually sounds good... just make sure you are sipping champagne too and the candles are lit and the rose sent flowing... and A lady in the tuib with you... !!!

Hi steviet, been following your thread for a while now and just registered.

I can't understand why the SL is at 1000 pips... how could that be necessary?

You're obviously becoming very good at trading, isn't it about time you look at some different money management strategies?

Keep up the good trading either way man, top stuff.
