Almost. Supposed you see an entry that is worth 15 lots of your money to see if you are right, you then enter the trade with 8 lots, you wait till that is in profit, plus enough profit to pay for the cost of the next trade (spread and commision) you then enter the next trade with 4 lots, you wait till that is in profit, you then add 2, and another 2. Doing that means you get 15 lots out there earning you money, but you only risked 8 of your own money and used the profits of the trade to reinvest back into the market for a bigger gain. IF you do...
8+4+2+2 = 16

Sorry no direction here , breaks top or break 4130 to see any . Just nasty ranging for those who can take it but never without loss perhaps.

There are 2 ways to look at scaling in, depending on the setup, you either spread your risk, or you use scaling in to increase your exposure without increasing your risk. Start a spreadsheet and play around with both of those and see what works for you. It all depends on your strategy and TF. No point doing this if you only aim for 20 pips a trade.

would like to see a close above 36ish before 81.

SL at be+1 just in case this is a fake out. i'm not good at spotting those.

Nah, nah, nah, you got that all wrong, you gotta jump on the first red or green bar you see, you don't want to miss out on those first 5 pips, that's what a real trader does, none of that waiting for price mallarkey, you got to be in it to win it.
tnks for that cloggie..i see what ur saying very clearly..
tnx
