alot of scalpers dont use SL'es they relly on taking quick profits and very quick losses ...
sometimes I even take losses with out the SL being triggered simply of non believing a direction I picked.
I personally do only do quick scalps short wise ... do a 5-7 point stop and lock in 1-10 point profit ... depending how volatile the market gets ...
on the S&P its easier than the dax IMO ...
for now locked in 27 points only quick scalping.
