{quote} Thank you if you're being genuine. But, I have a sense that you are not, so then maybe the age from your nickname has something to do with it. Besides, if you know what are you doing, losses are also part of the game... but not big losses, only small ones. Also, you don't have to be right at all but if your management is sound you minimize those losses as well. But, hey... you are smarter then me. Very smart...

Actually Iron - sorry for making you think I was joking - was merely joking at me as Im new and by your posts you are very much a smarter man than me, hence the

{quote} I enjoy your posts Islander ,love how you like to keep them simple and easy to read . Keep them coming ,when you have time of course . Regards
Thanks - I'm just trying to show a simple way to read the action.....and as we can see, my decision to go for a beer at 5pm CET - 16:00 on this chart - ment that I missed an easy 100+ pts after the pull back to the MA and then the break-out in that 36 point red marubozo.....the Lower High at 16:02 was the trigger .....hopefully others got some of the move and didn't try to catch the falling knife......ALWAYS trade with your MA

Thanks for your explanation . Your way of trading does make sense with the MA . Is the MA you use 10 ,Ive put 10 to 15 on my charts and 10 seems to be the nearest .

Hi there,

Do you no longer scalp trade the " Daily low -1 "/ daily high + 1" ??

I have noticed you have not done this for many weeks now?

Thanks
