LOL, well, that kind of a thread title ought to attract at least one visitor to this thread.

Because of its volatility I have picked GBP/JPY to test this idea on.

Method
1) Open long & short with TP = 5, SL = 0 (zero, thats not a typo)
2) Wait for TP on both positions.

Assumptions
Given the way this pair (GBP/JPY) moves in both directions, I have presumed a small tp of 5 will always be possible.

Proof of the Pudding
I have no proof to show you at this time, I have traded this live with 0.01 on IBFX - About four times, and the TP was always hit.
Note: Avoid using this method at news time
AND...Good luck.

Hi Shiva. Genius is simple. Go on with your research.
9 pips spread on IBFX and 5 TP, i think it won't work on long term.

Besides one day it will not close one of the positions and when it happens what you'll do.

I'm saying this because i already try something like this

Gazzoni, this is only an idea, not a method or system I am recommending, I am inviting feedback and suggestions.

As to the spread, if the tp hits why worry about the spread?

And if you get 9 out of 10 wins, the losing one may be closed at a convinient point,

NO SL does not mean Don't close
madness!

Right. Try it on a demo and see how it goes.
This will give you cash while a market is ranging, but once it begins to trend, it'll kill you within seconds to minutes. So, if you want to do something like this, at least give yourself a reason why you are entering, whether it's a break of a 50 or 00 level (which works well if entering with new candle opening above/below the level), or break of trendline, as is described in one of the methods on this forum, scalping with tl or something like that. Because if you have no reason and you enter, that's pure casino, better go to vegas and do it surrounded with drinks and women, and other rich losers

Please, do not trade this.

Risking the complete account(no stop loss) to get 5 pips is NOT a way to approach trading even remotely.
Trust price. Know yourself.
