DislikedCable Hourly Scalp
------------------
Feb Week 1: +55
Starting a new count for a new month and the rules of the scalp considered all tweaked for now unless a new idea comes along. Today's trade came early in the start of the week and start of London.
I had a range pulled across 1.9627 and 1.9679, and a long break came along with clean momentum on the M1 chart, forming new highs and lows and moving strongly up. The final stop was located somewhere just below 1.9747 by the time momentum faded and the final result after spread and padding was +55. Since this was a "good trade", I would consider the day done now.
Who knows, maybe I could take another move today like that, but I would be concerned that I'd end up just taking 2 or 3 more trades that end up stopped out at small loss or break even since we already had a good move. That's part of how I use this strategy. As soon as I see a trade giving me at least +20 (daily expected quota), I consider calling it a day so I don't lose what I have, the same way longer term methods will move a stop to break even or small profit after a move goes so far.Ignored
