When “scalping” what’s your average position size compared to a non scalp based on the number or pips looking to take? Other words in a scalp are you taking a larger then normal position size with a tight stop in the hopes X pips is really X pips * ...

Just can’t help myself seeing there still like 4 hours to go I think. Small lint at 2150 sl 2135. Maybe leave this one open over the weekend? Sometimes I win that lottery ticket on the week open. Doubt there would be a huge gap down I’d get a crap ...

Stop out at 2150 and now flat. Of course the FOMO is me wishing I’d closed at 2160+ and gone short and heavy lol. hope everyone ended up positive for the week or at least even. The last couple weeks I’ve almost dig myself out of a hole I created 3 ...

was thinking the same thing but how do you see the 2150/60 area maybe getting broken / held. That’s a long standing high I believe. I’m long from 2111 having got in on the retrace of the initial move (after losing 2 small shorts the hour before ...

Thanks as always Mtako - i had moved the stop to 2130. I’m always open to others past experience especially when it’s something like “oh yea I used to go through the same thing and now this is how I think about it” - this over the last month or so ...

My long now pretty much at the previous high for the day. Recouped my 2 impulsive trades plus some ok pips. For those who long ago passed my mentality and experience level - given the scenario today would you just book the win take your ball and go ...

Down 30 pips off my two impulsive trades over the last hour plus - losses already locked in. Maybe will her lucky and the dust has settled and long from 2110 was an ok entry and trend resumes. what I love and hate about this game (as most do I’m ...

What’s everyone’s general rule for NFP? It’s been God like 8 years since I’ve “traded” on that day. Guessing all those with multiple long (as in length of time not market direction) term trades just hunker down and maybe adjust stops. But for those ...

Out of my floundering short +2 pips and went long again @ 2051. Was looking at my nice long from last night - closed it at like 5am my time (had a late night of Netflix binging Billions) and while I took some nice pips off the trade I could have had ...

Well shoot - just noticed I had an active small short from 2053 already. Currently trading on phone and didn’t see it. It’s coming back up on be from the 2070 area retrace. Keeping it alive for now and setting stop to 2085 I think for now. Maybe I ...
