20% is simply too high and shows you are over exposing yourself. 5% should be your normal drawdown at any given time maybe even 10% at a push. My target is 2-5%. I exceeded this limit twice in the last 12 months and I've learned from it as to why I did this and have rules now to prevent it from happening again!
Dude, seriously, 20% now doesnt even eat up my profits in the account sooo im fine

I think that the pullback in quotation down to 1.6008 has been the last chance for going long before a rally towards 1.70, which will occur in 6 months time .. Take a look at gold price... You will see that the money started flowing towards risky assets .. GBPUSD will also benefit from that ...

Besides, UK economy started giving positive signals already .. Where US will keep on printing money, UK will not make further monetary base increase, which will support GBPUSD go up ...

Towards the closing of the market on Friday, quotation did move...

That is not the point. 20% of your whole account was at risk on a single day, profit or not, this is not a healthy statistic. With that kind of stat, investment banks would say you're too big a risk taker!

New member, theres potential for price to do anything it wants whenever it wants.

Theres no guarantees in this business, just probabilities.

In forex prices trend pretty well, so your best bet is to go with momentum.


Right now the momentum is down. However thats not to say price couldnt totally reverse and go back to 1.6137.

lol actual answer is

= no

Bones, there are no yes or no answers in forex, with regards to price direction.

There is a higher probability price will go down from here based on the daily and weekly close, and I will be looking myself to enter a short postion come 5.15pm.

That probability is is about 60% its going to go down after a small retrace.

Scalping is not for everyone. pesonally i love it...i cant be bothered to wait on pips when there are pips to be made on flags whether on trend or not. ATM we are not inmho in any trend on any currency or commodity or indicies. ..on any tf. So...heres what i do. i watch the inverse correlations and when i see momentum ( volume...liquidity... entering into a candle after a s/r level..s/d level ) i wait for the price to arrive at the level that i have drawn in. Now , waiting on a 4hr. candle is way beyond my handle...although i have the highest respect for a couple of traders here who do. ...so i look for pips on M15, M5, M1.

I am saving what i have written above as a disclaimer...and offering the charts below as an example of how i watch price. supply will always at some stage turn into demand as support will always at some stage turn into resistance. Keep your eyes on it folks.!

Cable M15, Gold M15. Aud M15

AUD...taken some of the table on M15 .Aud was best scalp...now at resistance, still holding cos i made pips to hold for a few more.
Cable ..i still believe she will go north a few more. On scalping 5 pips is a few more!
Gold is predicted to be a big drop so i am watching this closely, although the way i see it the instrument is on direction north.
edit: out cable wanna save my pips

out all cos i need some sleep . Good luck all. Just wanted to show you how to make a few pips. These trades i posted improved my account by around 150 pips. You have to know when to bail and when to get back in according to your sleep pattern !
