    Is it possible to consistently make $5000 a month trading 2 index futures contracts per trade ?

    Wow, is this swing trading, intra-day position, rotational scalping... What instrument... You're going to need movement. A 2 lot to make 5k per month... My thoughts are of one thing.... "Can you remain so focused", that most of your entries are nearly spot-on.. Create your methodology, load...

    Feeling bullish today

    I do admire you enthusiasm... As of Wednesday 8/8/2018 at 12:30 est., the volume has dropped-off considerable... Tuesday had balanced rotations that were not wide enough for my type of entries. Could be making a flag at the top.. Just seems like lack of interest, energy,etc. The best thing to...

    Hi, Glad you understood... Thanks for the like. Many experienced people on this site trying to help others... These futures markets are certainly not here for the outsider to make money. Stay strong my friend, Greg

    Price action: The holy grail?

    This is my 20th year of day trading... Price action can mean so many things.. Even the last price traded is going to be lagging the next price:) Some help... Continuation... Put a price action zig-zag line... Watch for pullbacks (either direction) with lower volume. Pullback trading will give...

    To support Overnights observation with the long and short side movement. Today, Friday 08/03/2018.. We had an 30 second 2 point Impulse in the ES. Around 12:16 est. Low volume move above an inside fractal.. This is not readable when staying on the DOM. It just jumps up.

    Hello ES, It's great to hear from Overnight. I'm fine with his/her neutral stance on which direction is faster... So, without any documentation, but, 20 years of reading tape.. It just feels like the short side falls much faster. All due respect to Overnight... We need friends in here. Greg

    Thanks it's a negative 295... That's still good.... You can only push hard when it's moving... Wave after wave of fast action, taking it up or down.. Feb-Mar 2018 huge momentum... Lots of downside... Shorts seem faster.. Easier for the bids to simply leave the table... 140+ RT's 3-6...

    Yachts... that works for me... Today... only 5 RT'S with 3 contracts each... -$295 includes commissions. I recognized the choppy range early. First trade didn't come until 9:51 est. Short trade breaking a fractal low. Was hoping for some follow through and an attempt at the OVL... nope...

    Excellent that you are doing well... Practice is most important. Many people will back-test, but for scalping, practice is the key. Every Sunday morning, I load the most difficult trading day(s) "for me." I see so much tape that I have no memory of a difficult day, from last month or last...

    Hi Mark, Excellent observation... Fast and almost always very Thin (ES) movement to the next range... I'm guessing you are well versed and have much experience. Price rolling up and down the HVN.. If one is quick, then scalp the range and be mindful of the number of times price has moved...

    Hello, I trade the ES via DOM(price ladder scalping) Scalp entry for an Impulse move.. Average trade time is less than 1 minute unless I get an impulse. Then I'm holding on, following the price with a Stop placed at the next Swing level. When I see unusual Size appear on any DOM level, I...

    Hi, Again, please do not enter a second scalp if your original trade is going negative.

    I scalp the DOM... You should consider attempting to identify the current direction bias and scalp that direction for more than 1 tick... Also, obtain a large supply of high quality eye drops. You can scalp, but I would not go for 1 tick.... If you get an Impulse in your favor, use your safety...
