OK so it moved up.. If it drops back below 35 with bearish PA, it'll open up 2780 area on the higher TFs.. I mentioned the other day 2935 should be a nice short... We'll see..
you should start trading these calls with the same % risk (wider stop loss of course) as you do with scalping

see which you are better at

or maybe you already have.

I don't know.. I came to the conclusion this market does not give you more than 10 pips in a straight line.. Also, most of these moves happen when I sleep...

intraday trend will end soon, then likely pullback the typical 40-70 pips

one could also argue the trend is down on a bit larger scale, and so entering short here is trend continuation..

by the way, technically (personal view) speaking, looks like we are ready for a boost, probably heading to 1.30 anytime soon, if that's the case, fasten your seat belts!

You can, but you need multiple trades.. the upside is, you don't have to worry where the trend is..

it does not do it all in a straight line but you can still get your 50-100 pips, just use a 50 pip stop loss and you will likely not get hit...

hell even 30 pip stop is likely not to get hit, but you could catch the whole move

my scalping strategy is more profitable, as 10 pips on scalping = 50 on a trend trade (using equal risk % for both)

ill risk max 10 pips scalping and max 50 pips for trend trade or reversal per day

i could have days with 30-40 pips of scalp winners, but never more than 10 pips of loss, so its good RR

i just recommend you try it to see which is more profitable, my trend trade strategy isnt quite as profitable but its close... (because there is less opportunity when trying to trade for 100 pips... where as there are dozens of 10 pips scalps everyday)
