added to my long at 68

I'm short here at 70.7 scalp TP 63 and SL at 81

algo moved TP to 62 and 61 right before we hit 63 and 62, not sure if we will hit 61 but just going with the flow

Minus 9.5p on that one.

Minus 9.5 on the last short. Stop a little tight or crappy sig?

Another short shot here at 75 with a SL at 80 and TP at 64,

Just trying to follow a new mechanical scalping system, gotta follow the rules before I can break em...TP moved to 60. These last two under regular manual entries, I would have moved to BE+ on both, but testing live, how these signals are, so I can adjust the exits.

OK. TP at 60 filled. So +15 which makes it plus 5.5 on this cycle. I need to tweek the SL levels.

that might be a good one if it indeed a short term DT on DI which it appears to be\

I would trail it closely, because one quick spike in D and toast
