Yes sir Leob, Scalping has tremendously changed my life for the better. I absolutely love it. I am learning how to bet big when I feel I am really right. Are you betting big on contracts sometimes when you feel you are really about to get a win (high probability thinking)? Thanks,

Hello Leob, Are you a scalper as well? If yes, doesn't it feel good? Thanks,

Hello longandshort, Thanks,

Hello Leob, Agree. Your response fits my personality extremely well. Until the day I die, I will be scalping the 2 minute chart. Thank you,

Hello longandshort, Good conversation buddy. What timeframe would you recommend to newbie? Thanks,

Hello longandshort, Correct, I do not believe in keeping a track record. I do not have a 3 year track record, not even a 1 year track record. Yes, I do not know my current Sharpe ratio. I do not have journal or track my trades. I just track my PnL and keep it going up. My point is, you do not...

Hello Leob, Yes it is challenging to measure manually if breakeven will help your trading style or not. Better if you can program it, but that may be challenging as well. If you are aiming for big profits, I think trailing is better. If scalping, just trade it and take a guess. When in doubt...

Hello thehung111, This is my style and approach as well. I gave up trying to hold for bigger profits. Just happy if I can get a profit and move to the next setup.

Very brilliant post sir. You are absolutely correct. Lol you know me and Brooks have our love-hate relationships (just like a woman you spend money and time with lol), but Brooks is right, as small retail traders we must choose the high pressure side, and trade in that direction.

Good Morning Volpri, The best indicator and the cheapest indicator is price itself. I agree sir.

This thread is not about me making money deaddog, its about giving us retail traders logical practical simple solutions how to make money in an expedited trial and error fashion. My opinion was simply was: I recommend a trader trade the small/micro charts to get more trades a day/week/month to...

I just think swing trading takes a trader too long to witness if the trading plan makes money. Like if trader is trading daily charts, probably gets like 2 trades a week. Trading 1 minute or 5 minute charts, gets about 50 trades week.
