But i will stop tgis useless discussion: that was the 1. treat i answered. There should be no question about that FOREX moves faster and makes more moves during day than ES or stocks. If we all agree on that , ok, if not ok. Back to trading.

what is scalping? i take from minimum 10 tiks a trade to 30 and also 80 pips a trade... thats not scalping in my view...

you are shure about that? :-) (i said from 300 to 500 ticks, depends on the day...)

dear cable my "exactly" referred to "ScapGF, you're the one who doubted that the movement was there. What one is able to capture is a whole other matter. moarla does not have to prove anything, as the discussion started out with questioning if the zig-zag movement was even there to begin with."

exactly :-)

in the morning(europe) the EURUSD and the EUR future, and at US open the ES (not in the summer month, too boring...) on the EUR 20 - 30 rounds on the ES 10 - 20

my stop is at - 10 ticks its a protective stop only in case my internet line goes down if i am not right my indi tels methat and i go out with a market, my stop never will be touched

i counted the ticks up, because someone said, there are not as many ticks to make on the euro.... so only for fun today :-) here is the chart i trade, if you cant see the swings, what can i do.... the ticks are there (time is Frankfurt: strarting from 8.00 in the morning)

i said bevore, i trade the EUR future 700 Volume chart as my main chart, and when you look at the clean swings there you make from 300 - 500 ticks / day.... (should be similar to a 3 min chart, but i prefer volume charts for my indis)

well you can trade how much contracts you are comfortable with... i would say in the european morning with 10 - 20 contracts maximum you would have not too much slippage, with more i would not be really happy... in the US session maby with 30-40 you are ok..... on the FOREX it depends on...

nobody said that... 500 ticks are 6000 USD single contract trading with 10 contracts = 60.000/day = 1.800.000/month = 12.000.000/year... so trading with 5.000.000 USD FOREX that would be: 250.000/day 10.000.000/month 120.000.000/year but all that doesnt change the primary...

looking at the ES right now, there was a up move 40 ticks and a down with for now 8 ticks.. (in 1,30 hr) thats the big difference between EUR and ES

can you give me one reason, why it should not be possible to take those trades?? and dont come with leverage, because all the big funds banks traders etc. do the same... leverage is a plus but the ticks remains the same. So one good reason:

think big not small....

well 9 moves, count the ticks ....

near 400 ticks .-))))

12.00: Now at least 200 ticks, and still 10 hrs trading left :-))))

now is 11.30 here in europe trading only big moves, 180 ticks for now trading smaller moves more :-) and the real moving market on EUR starts with the US opening...

right... i use as my main chart the 700 Volume chart on the EUR entrys and exits on the 234 Volume chart works nice most of the time

startetd 45 min ago on EUR: 70 ticks for now.... so now i have left 13hrs and 15 min for the last 430 ticks thats about 30 ticks/hr... should be possible :-))
