People who make REAL money in Forex trade LOWER time frames (M1, M5, M15) based off of HIGHER time frames (H4, D1, W1). PANSIES who have LOST THEIR BALLS trading lower time frames stick to HIGHER time frames and think LOWER time frames are NOISE. THEY ARE IGNORANT.

Any time frame that isn't a TICK CHART is NOISE. It is just a conceptual representation of the REAL MARKET.
Hard to argue with that.

Most dismiss the lower time frames because of what they hear on forums like this. Most say if you can't trade and make money on the higher time frames then you can't trade and make money on the lower time frames.. Total BS.

I say, if you can't make a profit on the lower time frames, then you have no business trading the higher time frames! IMHO trading < 15m is easy money! Personally, I prefer the 15m, 5m and 1m. That's my bread and butter.

Oh, the naysayers will come and say otherwise ... dismiss them. In fact I wouldn't be surprised if some posters on FF aren't compensated by a few b0rkers for spewing nonsense!

Why am I taunting? Why am I so tough, because I hate to see it when hundreds of retailers are led up a garden path by a few loudmouths who are adamant about ficticious gap trading techniques.

If you have seen my posts, you should know by now that I am not here to win a popularity contest, quite the contrary and if I can keep a few retailers and "newer" traders here from making some silly mistakes by taunting the muppets who believe in "gaps" then I have achieved my objective. Trading FX for most is hard enough without all the lies and...

I don't really care if 99% here jump down my neck, but maybe, just maybe a few here would actually do a little more research and some independent thinking about what I wrote regarding "gaps".

And let's be honest, the "short the gap" screamers have thinned out quite significantly in the last few weeks, so maybe I will give it a rest for a while. Objective achieved.

The gaps that are discussed here are because of b0rkers opening times nothing more nothing less. A true gap .... is RARE. It can happen, but it's not a sleazy weekend gap ... because your b0rker doesn't have enough staff to open during normal trading hours.

i tend to agree that it is perfectly possible to profit off scalping the 5m and 15m - i have just got my 30 pips for the day, will wait to see the LO - easy money - once i learned to be disciplned and not chase my losses, hte ratio of winning trades increased dramatically

It's really don't matter what TF you are trading ODDS are always on

the house side. But you got more chances to win betting on 2 football games from 15 than 15 from 15


It's like playing poker and know what your opponents

cards are.:

"The retail brokers who have sprung up recently would like you to believe that
currency trading is a high form of financial speculation. In reality, the average
client 's trading approach combined with the unscrupulous practices of some brokers
make spot FX trading more akin to the games found on the Vegas strip than (Q
anything seen on Wall Street. The new breed of on-line FX brokers simply share too
many of the traits employed by casinos to stack the odds in their favor, including
these:
• The "house" always has the advantage (the spread).
• The "house" feeds off the player's greed and actively promotes it (by offering
trading signals, excessive leverage, and fancy platforms resembling slot
machines!).
Introduction
• The "house" adopts various dubious risk-management controls. which
include cheating and culling off winning players.
All of these benefits ensure that, in the long run, the house (broker) will end up
with virtually all of the player's (trader's) money. The odds are simply stacked in their favor"

===
So, eat your bread and butter carefully

P.S

Anyways scalping is for cocky Teens, who can sleeplessly sit at the screen 24/7 trying to catch some "moves"

more trades you take (more frequently you trade), more chances you got end up loosing and that's the STATISTIC

(cause ODDS are against the player)!

Have a good night..

for all those trying to sell eu and get a gap close..

the gap opened and closed before your mt4 platforms even opened ,,, get a real feed or do not trade till the market gets rolling in Tokyo

I know this is going to make a whole bunch of people mad. But why do you think brokers invest so much into mt4 and even offer it for free? .... why is easy cause 90% of traders fail and the money they lose goes right into the brokers pockets.

We are above Fridays high , with Ireland bail out news everywhere and yet the amount of traders trying to sell a none existent gap is very high in this forum.

No wonder 90% of traders lose money

3992 midweek.

This week is going to be fundie manipulated, Ireland news and Portugal will hit the fan as soon as rates hit 7.5 over there. So no longer term trades for me, one day at a time, opening around Franky, closing mid afternoon NY time.

Skyzer, sometimes you make sense ... other times you don't. Of course b0rkers have the advantage. Anyone who thinks otherwise is being mislead. I'll also add that those that think they can't make a living out of FX is sadly mistaken. Many have ... me included. There's more than a handful here that I know of that make a living from FX.

All high vol are either compressed bars (doji or no strong upbars) then there is downmove.
And the upside is not made with high vol...probably because its done before Frankfurt/London.

Its like sellers are there on all top...ready to make the pair drown.

We'll see that in the coming day/weeks.

PS : this chart is a little mess but its hard to explain everything
