Nice chart Eric. It shows Sho's entry style very well.

I didn't take them all but that's the approach I used to ride and build my position on EU & GU today.

Because of news I was cautious and took 50% off before news time.

Move the SL's up, and enter more trades where you have the arrows. Beautiful

Eric your style of scalping.. you may like oanda? Tiny spreads, very fast execution and you can move sl and tp as a line as soon as you are in.. plus no minimum distance from market price like a lot of mt4 brokers require...

and keep it up champ!

Yes, Sim. All conditions offer by Oanda are fine with me ......... except the internet problem. I've been trying quite a few times but the connection status was quite poor, compare with those with MT4, which are much better. You know the timing for me is the most important as I cant miss the entry and exit pt while we are talking about a couple of pips only.

PS - no real a/c with Oanda yet, only "FX game". May be i'm wrong, if someone who use Oanda at HK with no my problem, please drop me a notes.

Cheers

Struggling at top quite a long period, cross the uptrend and seems a downward force is forming, short for 2 bars time, and cut at PPA.

I am kinda thinking we are in a holding pattern till NFP tomorrow. All quiet at the OK corral.

Cant hold the position too long as in work. Short one by one while the development of last pin as the development seems good. Close 1st with 10, 2nd with 8 down to PPA.

Looks the price really respect on each PPA.

Haha, even the stoch was head up at the moment I jumped in (as Sho told us not for entry requirement), no hesistation on short entry!!

- impulsive move after corrective move;
- Testing on one additional MA (50EMA), above and below formed a good s&r;
- so go short
- exit when a little stall near the bottom PPA (blue line, my TP)

The market is real slow!!

EJ: not a good entry, should have made the entry at the 1st red (LH). So made 9 then quit. (PS - a sudden drop again right after the closing)

GU: even slower than EJ, so no bother to wait longer while the price approached the bottom PPA.
