apologies - but thats just the silliest comment i have read for a while - how can you be a disciplined trader with real lots and real money if you cant teach yourself discipline on micro lots ? Its easy to be erratic with mini lots because the absolute loss is peanuts - but if thats your approach - stop trading now - because the market will get you sooner or later.
i dont understand your hint there, please explain

It's all about entry and money management bro.. Even though I am scaling into my positions, when I reach 2-4% thats it, no more adding.. my first position was small at 5027, my second was larger at the 1h 62ema.. I still have room for 1 more at the 4h 50ema depending on price action...

If I am wrong, I wont be crying because my loss would still not be significant based on my money management...

the lines are a few places I would consider shorts. First level would be at market price. Positions would be small and would be added to if it went up.

I would also scale down to 15 minute witch i dont do much and watch the price here. if it hits a brick wall it most likely will head down. Watch the candles see if they get smaller and smaller that is a good indication the upmove is exhousted.

MM is indeed everything...

I like to have more than one affirmation of my trade when I take it. Then I am willing to risk my 3%.

thats the key irrespective of a trading idea... most underrated part of trading, every1 too overfocused on where its going!! rather on what they are going to do - the only thing we can control is our own actions!

How does that silly countertrend trading I was talking about look now spin. Long bias i was and long it went.
haha, you don't hold grudges do you? I can't remember who said it, think it may have been infinity, but it was not what you said, it was the way you said it.
well done on your pips. I remain, as ever, with the trend.
