Crazy over 1000 point drop on US30

A gross overreaction, IMO.

Dumping their stock because of inflation risk it would seem.

Scalping US30 for 1.7% that is good for today.
12/13 nothing crazy happened.
I had a few TP get hit but it is usually
See points, take points, repeat.

Edit: iI always say I'm done for the day
2.7% on the day. I'm actually done I need a nap.

Was watching ICT video about the futures market (SP500). He was damn close in his prediction. You could of made money playing short off that FVG, but if you was holding for that low you would of been stopped using his SL logic.

Do you scalp different than how you trade the 20ma dead-horse?

I do scalp somewhat different.
I tend to use S/D more. (Fading these areas for quick points)
Using S/D with deadhorse is helpful.(can avoid crap trades)
Deadhorse is something a novice can utilize and even pros.
Lem used the deadhorse and seemed like he rarely lost.

[aliassmith]

Traded US30 for .5% today.
6/7 small gains. The loss was less than a point.
I feel like I'm a little out of sync with the market.
I should stop for the day. We will see.

Edit: I rarely stop. Had some ups and downs ended with 1%

Still trying to trade myself out of my MFF hole.
This week there were some unexpected family circumstances and I had to be in hospital for 2 days.
Luckily everything is ok now so I can look at trading again.
I tried to trade from my phone from the waiting room but managed to dig an even deeper hole.
On Monday I actually was out of my hole and positive but I fell back in.
Yesterday I reflected what is going wrong and soon discovered there were some pairs in my trading that are not supposed to be there like XAUUSD and US30. (US30 only after NY lunch and after practice).
I still have some time but it'll be xtra hard now

Tonight I was trading US30 during the NY afternoon as a practice.
Position sizes were only 25% (or I would have dug myself out of my hole)

I can trade!

It's so frustrating that during a learning proces you switch between very good moments and very bad moments.
What keeps me going is that I can see the frequency of my good moments go up.

I took more points as the width of the range
