Yes i understand............. scalping on 2 min time frame is very stressful. You could try the ten min time frame. i have had success on that and it gives you time to put on stops which gives you some peace of mind ..You will see plenty of flags and divergence set ups on the ten min....... try it on less volatile position's until you get use to it
I am trying to just target trade with a stop and a limit then re trade on pullbacks etc..... I wasn't comfortable on the 2 min my self..
Shares you could trade shares long and short on IG try a few on your demo account
Scalp dancer !!! lol excellent result Task .......... Morrison i am in profit, worth a couple of takeaways so far! I am looking for first drop to 225 today
Crude is the Dude for me though
Task out of HSBC with mini profit........ Short on Morrison s.... Short on US Crude.... Letting market settle a while before i take a position on the indices.
Sorry GS wasn't totally clear on cine... thought you had gone into Dom as wel............... Anyways dom looking in better health these days and helped with strong brand name and just eats decline in profits.
Also world cup could boost them if you hold that long
Gl
Task Dax its unclear it could turn now as its a double top from the 1st of March or push on to the 12620 mark .
As you say needs valid confirmation which we haven't got yet.... .
I am thinking maybe Morrisons is a probable short with a stop at 233 ?............ thoughts TASK
Very poetically done GS lovely play on words.
But just one last Hat joke and it's as old as the hills... my dad told it to me and he has been gone many a moon....
What did the bra say to the Hat? .............
You go on ahead whilst I give these two a lift....
Well done GS but some hat developments .... I have a friend who is a magician.... he heard about my hat dilemma......... so he thought he was doing me a favour and made my hat invisible!!!
Now I can't see it!
Other thoughts .....locking in profits!
If you are target trading it's easier to abide by stops and limits ( a bit easier ) as you have done your analysis!
I think scalping puts more demands on the brain as you're going both ways and on small time frames and you get tired and make mistakes !
Ok off to shops and coffee time. Gl all
That's horrible when you're upside down on a trade .I empathise! .
If you are on gains right now... could be a good time to exit..... Friday afternoons are when traders square up for the weekend and options expire..... You have heard the term Freaky Friday
I am not trading today shopping etc plus freaky Friday.
Dont tell me it's like shooting fish in a barrel on a day I can't trade.... lol.
Units .....ok understood .
HSBC trade going nowhere. ....will hang on for now.
Just had email from IG saying all their margin rates are going up !
Also my finspreads account is being migrated into city index ....I might dump that and try your true Ecn ..... finspreads are very slow on closing trades.... far to slow on fast moving indices and scalps.. Gl all
