Ok then congratulation. Either you're just that good, which is an anomaly, or the odds will eventually catch up to you.



I don't know where you got the idea that I lost an account. Because I haven't.



Jim Rogers claims to have the worst timing when it comes to entering trades. The reason why he's saying that is because he hasn't met me. No I'm not saying I'm Jim Rogers. I'm saying that my timing to enter a trade really is horrible. On a short time frame, if you don't get the timing just down to the exact nanosecond, you're screwed. Not...
ok I never said you lost an account was saying in terms of if (in gemeral) you lost and account it dont mean you give up an go try what ever one elseis doing it means learn from your mistakes...was not implying you had lost an account and I havenot lost 2 account was saying I just started a 3rd account tradeing 3 brokers is all...I never said higher time frames were hard to do or trade either ..i just dont trade them ..I like the 5min and it works for me..


and just because scapleing dont work for some ppl dont mean it is a lost cause ..you do long term trades I dont .. dont like them can't seem to stay in them long enough maybe over time I will but for now I like to take my profit ...but on the other hand just because I dont trade long term dont mena it does not work ....just like others that dont trade as a scapler can;t say it dont work ..just because they can not get it to work for them ...
If you need something important don't hesitate to ask someone else.....

Been more then 12months for me and I am still here... I have traded 1hour 30min and 5min .....
Not exactly traditional "scalper" TF's there, so it may be a terminology issue.

Strictly speaking, if I'm not mistaken, scalping started out with traders literally trading the spread on various instruments... might have only lasted seconds... I'm not even sure what gets called scalping here is anything at all like it started out... but i'm not qualified to say.

In any event, the need to prove anything to anybody might easily do you in before whatever pressure "scalping" may do or not do...

I learned a while back that trying to impress everyone with what I try to do was a lost cause so I do it for me and only me if I lose ..I lost ..if I win I won...and not because I wanted to show other ppl how well I can trade or can't , I learned from loseing not to try and force trades to impress.. some hard lessons learned...and I can say I still learn everyday more and more....that why I am here everyday to read threw post about what ppl are doing and what they think ...

The Euro has been collapsing for a long time.

But if anyone has Euros to spare, I'll gladly take them.

Someone who doesn't suck at photoshop like I do should take a Euro bill and make that a slogan.

"The Euro, collapsing since 2002".
I suck at PS, but here's a stab at your request

I learned a while back that ..
Hey no worries bro, it was just that one post that said you'd stick a'rd just to show that... and so on.

I trade pretty short time frames myself most of the time and I had one "scalp" entry last summer on EJ that wound up going 1500 pips before I closed it... not really a scalp anymore at some point.

I just use the term loosely for short term trades partly cuz it's easier than sayin "I'm short term durationing some trades between the 6m BB's."

Anyway, it's no big deal. fwiw... http://www.investopedia.com/terms/s/scalpers.asp

I'd say 4 posts of bear flags in the last hour might be a clue that there may be a bear flag out there somewhere.


I have a GORGEOUS one on my 5 min that just broke.

((Does this count for a 5th one?))

Ours are similar with the color coding scheme. Still not as pretty as the Euro's though.
