...scalping trade explained
I take a look at M5, M15 & M30, H1 & H4 when scalping at m1.
...& to wait, wait, wait seems a crucial skill when scalping the dax market IMO.
Every trader should have his own strategy & his own perspective.
It's not a thing of "right" or "wrong". If you have false model and/or misleading theories but you make profit with it
why not taking these structures and making money?
think about it, please!

Thank you. I took the exact same trade, but with different reasoning behind:

1) There had been a strong bounce from the same level 10 minutes earlier
2) It was at the 76.4% retracement of the initial spike up...which I was too slow to catch
3) It was at the 15 period Bollinger Band
4) It was at the 60 period 3 ATR Keltner channel
5) Target at upper Keltner channel

Not that I use 1 minute charts, but that's what is easiest for most people here to relate to, I guess. 21 points in five minutes.

Nice to see one of your charts again - OK its a 1m and not your usual tick based - as you say, MT4 users are somewhat restricted and tick charts are less used.

He's a 20 second chart and several of us in a live room were buyers there too, also noticing the prior activity which was all the better for coming around the Sweet Spot. Two types on entry were used. MT4's envelopes serve as a manual proxy for a proper Keltner, helpful when there's no close level to aim for.

Hello Old Friend

20s charts...that's a bit more noise than I can swallow, but I do see the attraction with the precision they allow. With tick charts you get better precision with less noise

Good to see your style of charts again, too Mine rescaled to 20s below for comparison.

The open is a Non Prof GAP opening. We stayed above the -0.5% So we could even go up to try to reach the Y Close @ 11.978
Do you mean that could happen today or sometime in the future? I see the last 3.5 days DAX is flipping like mad around 11,955/65. Soon that will be over...

That means we remained above the -0.5% from Y close and inside the yesterday Value range. (Market Profile)
No real down preasure on the open. Close to home.
That could change after ECB release ofcourse.

Its very logic. DAX is waiting for ECB. So very sideays last days. Friday/Monday/Tuesdays POC in one row. (Price Of Control)

US markets waiting for tomorrow jobs report.

So yes It will be soon over and the markets will choose direction again. Patiance is the Keyword again.

EU & US markets have different agendas this Week.
US contracts roll over as well this Week. DAX roll over next Week

US markets wake up and start to pull back.

Still short DAX @ 930

DOW could test the last Weekly POC @ 810 zone
+20p locked last lot
+30p locked last lot
FLAT +30p last lot

DAX not in a hurry to follow US/drop

SnP hit the Februari Monthly POC @ 2360 and popped. Heavy support so far.
DOW reached the Februari POC as well to test and popped. Support as well.
