Right entry after london closing, a counter trend trade, and dont expect too much on this time. So quick out with small profit.

When there is right setup, just go for it!!

+114p balance today, 20 plays (really over traded!!), 16 win, 4 loss.

No more play like this

notes to remind myself - I have several times one after one entry without closing the 1st trade. This way can double up the profit but again vice versa. If you are pretty keen on your trade, its fine, but always know your max trade lot at one moment, dont over trade the limit!! Also, DONT move your SL especially when you have double trade. Currently the capital can only allow 3 trade lot for max per time. So must stick to it!!

Even this trade is +, I consider this one is bad entry after a second through, so sharp cut while it made a positive.

No trade, wait for clear direction. The 1.517 could be hardly broke.

hi city,great result ! I hope I can trade like you! what is your trading time everyday? Do you glue to your computer during your trading time?
Yes, mostly I "Glued" with my computer when I am trading. Unless the market is real slow but only away a moment for coffee break (of course with hard SL & TP).

My trading time majoy within 1800-2400 (GMT+8, London 2nd half + US session), but there may be few more trade during 0900-1800 (GMT+8) while before to work, lunch break etc.

Hope this help, its true that we have to stick to the usual time that we trade in order to familiar the market within a particular time period.

Cheers

Ahh man i dunno how u do it

scalp all day and still have a different job haha..

couldn't find any info on increasing your oanda connectivity expect clear your java cache, update java, and i just turn off windows firewall because it sucks

spread on GJ is 2-2.8 man in peak times, ej 1.8... most my pips come from ej and gj now, you would kill it if you moved! what are your spreads currently?

MBT's offer is 2.5 for EJ & 1.9 for GU (add around 0.5p for commission) in normal market, similar to those non-ECN brokers. But I believe there is no stop hunting, so quite comfortable to place the hard stop in tight position!!

I think the spread for GJ is still quite big for scalping like me, so have not touch on this pair.

I have to forget about the Oanda as my company computer restricted to update the java program, I trust this is the problem. Tks anyway.
