Pipper, Infinitus -regarding you have dayjobs and do not trade through the volatile time of day what timeframes do you use most and how long do you typically hold trades?
Hi,

I am mainly a scalper. High TF are not made for me. I trade mainly on the 5min and below. I choose the TF which fits best in the given situation. But mainly 5min with entry optimization on 2min or 1min TF.

The 5 min TF offers me in my limited time multiple opportunities to place a trade.

Fortunately my day job offers me the oportunity to trade oftentimes in the volatile phases.

But like Pipper, I always look for opportunities on 1, 2 or 4 h chart for swing trades. When time and situation fits I take them too.

Thanks for the reply. It is reassuring to see some similarities. Most days I cannot get away during work hours and in the remaining time I mainly trade to 5min, (occasionally 15min), h4, d1.

I prefer to manually close when trade is invalidated but cannot do without fixed SL TP on everything below d1.

Today was crap, got me with my pants down on that thrust up (no pun intended, lol), then I made half of it back. At least I know why: I didn't respect my own rules, as always.
I was set on 4160 but it never made it there. When one of my levels fail, I have to switch immediately to the opposite one. Of course I didn't do it... Oh well...

I only get messed up when I break my rules.....but when I do, I seem to automatically add to the rules or reinforce the ones I already have.....Cloggie made a great post about having them written out next to you at all times.

I am sorry to hear that. Expected some crap when market opened, but not to this extent.

I was bearish from the start, never found an opportunity to go short.
