Just a thought, does the 1hr chart looks like what might be an inverted H&S to anybody?

There is only the question of when. When you will blow up your account thinking that scalping is the solution because:

A) someone who truly scalps doesn't have the time to post messages.

and

B) more importantly in order to scalp "professionally", meaning long term profitable, they need an edge. No not some indicator, or price action. A big $ trading account or a very slim spread.

Here we go now, I can see the posts saying I get 20 pips every day for the last X nbr of weeks. LONG TERM PROFITABLE. Show us your mansion from scalping. It can be done for a while but the market chews up those who think they can do to build up their account.
So, show us yours (mansion).

To each it's own. I know you are longer in business then most of us here, but the fact is: If I win 70% of the trades, day by day, consistently, then I do have an edge. In order to go negative this ratio must shift dramatically over longer period of time. Possible? Yes. Likely? No

Last week I departed from scalping and hardcore rules and promptly got spanked HARD.

Scalping will not make one rich fast, it takes LONG time, iron discipline and termination to go anywhere, that's for sure. But as someone said here once (accumen I believe): Little gains over longer time = big account.

That was pathetic.

If it does not go up substantially before NY close - it will go down below 1.4000 IMHO.

The most important thing of all traders is "protect your capital". Secondly, "protect your profit". As long as you have a strategy that work for you, scalding against the trend, following along with the trend, stay with it. There is no right or wrong, only the question of "whether the method suit you". CHeers[/quote]

You need to become an expert trader because that is who you are trading against. A market of experts. Only traders working for banks / trading firms seriously consider scalping.

Others trying it supply them some of their profits.
I guess scalping needs a definition first.

Your definition?

1-3 PIPS = Scalping
10-20 PIPS = Intra-day trading.
