sorry, this is not information i will divulge
Sorry, didn't wish to offend. Be aware that if you become profitable (in reasonable amounts per point) at scalping with Cap Spreads it will be made impossible by manual execution. However, at that time you could consider Pro Spreads (not a very user friendly platform but no prob scalping and ladder trading available).

Hi everyone,
I am another new member here in FF, and a VERY new trader (how lucky am I to have found this thread so early ). I just wanted to thank EO for sharing his strategy and most importantly for helping people inside and outside the forex world. Thanks to all the other traders as well for sharing their awesome analysis. Back to reading and demo trading now, still got 2k more pages to catch up with you all.
happy trading.

Hi all,

this is only my point of view:

I took the first short after the shooting star which was resisted by the 35sma/50 ema and I could grab a few pips. After the short I was like you not sure where she wants to go. I think it's the best to stay out of the market in that case. After a while it looked more like a wedge or pennant to me (trend continuation pattern). She broke out and retested the wedge. But I didn't went long after the retest because my 1 hr trendline was to close.

E/J has hit me really hard today. I tried to short her 2 times and lost nearly 50 pips. Some days are pure bs.
