Scalping a long from 2872, aiming for 2920ish
Dang... I had 10 pips on the table when I put the SL to BE. Triggered and I'm out. LOL
A pip is only worth it if you know how much you risked to earn it

Nice one Josh. I missed that boat. Was in the bathroom. Doesn't look like a chance of a retrace either.

Yep I missed it as well but there will be other opportunities.

dont think we will go down easily. 1.2890 was a good short. i think we wil retest 1.2890 and maybe 1.2920 before down. just my opinion

FIRST MISTAKE:
trading should be emotion free
SECOND MISTAKE;

ok ok forget it youre ignored

THERE's a dissimilarity at current price level 1.2870 15tf using eur/usd method from first post's
so it's safe to say that price will pull away from that place,and will come back before it take;s off
TRADING IDEA would be to wait and let the price come to you before you enter long or short

So it did retrace. Glad I was wrong. Added shorts at 2871 and 2882 and pendings at 60. I would have had 90 if I was more awake. Meh. Let's not get greedy.
Nothing has changed as far as circumstances go. 80,70,60 should cover the 1.28 range.

Edit: And whaddya know. Short added at 2890

News in just over an hour will hopefully get things rolling. Chop zone until then.
15M shows a LH and LL though.

My Zone from morning for short was 12890-12900 this is where I shorted from and believe this could be high of day!

As I saw it pullback I took my BE back to SL, as its only 10 pips

where you been bro! was looking out for your levels cos i know we would be in sync. lol like i said earlier 1.2890 nwas a good short but we would retest it. and most likely higher. 1.2912 before 1.2920

then would have moved stop to Breakeven. 1.2994 is at risk of giving way

I think that's a wise move and possibly a better use of your time. You could load more on position... ie. Lots or Qty or whatever... and easily make the amount of $£$ on the counter-scalp, without having to manage the smaller timescale.

Better Reward to Effort (ROE) ratio in addition to the ROI.
