Lem's Big Box O' Stuff.

Worth the late night - this play off the re-open bagged me +28 and will send me off to snoozeville a very happy camper indeed .

You can ignore the MACD's and Clouds on this, all the play was on the candle shape.

Stinking head cold this morning, not ideal trading health conditions, lol - but what are you going to do. There's only so many LemSips you can drink!

Instead, I hit on the Wall Street 30 chart and if taken as an Ichi play, this would be hugely aggressive but in reality it's just old school pattern recognition and behavioural analysis.

Ignore the flags on the trend-lines, I can't get rid of them.

Double-Dip entry.

Why you don't fall in love with your scalp trades

Yoda milked the UC like a Pro

It seems it´s better to get 2 or 3 pips on many pairs as they will come back at you with razor sharp moves.
It´s just about getting the confidence to take small pips heavy loaded instead of waiting for a 15 pip gain which can vanish while you are getting your cup of coffee or getting rid of that early coffee ...

Refer the DZ ... what pairs do you find most promising ?
If I look back I am not sure since they all have good and bad times.

Yeah, you're spot on - but this is very much a personal choice. You'll know the major argument, that it just takes one hit against you to run away with all your profits - and of course that's true, that's also why you need to be uber confident in your entries and never, ever, let a loss run. You must drill it into your head that you cut and run as soon as it looks like you've got it wrong.

You can counter trade instead of closing but that's become more difficult for most retail and I have been running it ''straight'' lately to reflect that. The only time I'd counter just now is if there is a huge momo flip, so I will jump on board the new move first, before I close out the ''bad'' trade but all of that gets us into a whole new ball game.

When you are scalping down here, 15 pips is just idiotic as a target - and the idea that you could step away from the screens for anything while in a trade, is a definite non starter.

You need to genuinely begin to think like a sniper. You must be as sure of that shot as you ever can be, as as soon as you pull the trigger, you are in effect breaking cover. No taking a shot that is pretty good.

The pairs I favour are listed in The Other Place. At some point, I will check what they were. I may even switch the Dead Zone computer on .

I do admit that it's been a while and it's entirely feasible that behaviour has changed, however for the most part, UC, EJ and The DAX will give the best consistency. I do like the look of one new pair, GA and I am going to have a closer look at that. GN is also superb but the spreads are prohibitive most of the time.

Lol. I like to keep very major method on a standalone computer set up. Stops confusion or getting bogged down.
