{quote} right, this thread is dominated by guys who call themselves swing traders. and 75% of them are short in cable with an average trade duration of three weeks and an avergae return of -4,3%. losing money is not a successful trading style. also, the number of posts is not automatically positive correlated with the sucess in trading. lot of posts here are just a kind of reinsurance in order to feel better. wishfull thinking. i´m a scalper for several years now and since i am scalping, i never had a significant damage to my account while many...
I would argue that it depends on the person. For me, scalping is really stressful. I rather entry a good setup with defined targets. Anything else stresses me out sooner or later and takes too much of my time.
Fix up, trade sharp ...

CPI Question

CPI YoY in 30 minutes forecast at 2.0%. Normally a deviation of +-0.2% makes a tradable spike (if you have the right tools). This time around I think it will breakout oneway or the other if there is a deviation. But what deviation do you think would cause this breakout? Or will anything below 2.0% give the bears a frenzy, and 2.0 and above give the bulls a hardon ?

yes, it depends. scalping in most cases is time intensive. although i´m a full-time trader, i mainly scalp

1) the dow (last trading hour)
2) news (cable/eurusd, event-driven volatility breakouts)

so i maximise my leisure time...

May attempt a cheeky long at 6638, thinking that resistance on the daily might turn to support...or down just above 1.66

All the weather related doom and gloom proved false. UK economy doing well. I think we can continue our bull run now.
