CMC gives .7 spread often but it fluctuates - I scalp 5 pips atleast so i wait for areas where I expect 5 green pips. straight away move SL to BE + spread + 2 points.

Current mode scalping for longs only as hourly is bullish ST.

  • Nov 22, 2012 7:28pm Nov 22, 2012 7:28pm
thats exectly what I am saying
0.7 pip spread
comission?
slippage?

total 2.0 pip/trade
your target is 5.0 pips
means you make profit 7.0 pips
2.0 pips cost

means
2/7 = ~%30 cost with %100 winner trades!!
am I clear?
