Low-volatility strategy? I don't know, I don't scalp low-volatility stocks, someone else would have to take that one again.

Looking at the past week, i haven't seen anything like it. Seems like they are pretty liquid actually, I'd trade them. Sure there are gaps on the open. But most day-traders do not hold positions overnight. So it is irrelevant. It is a risk we all take though. We have to deal with it...

How would it gap 30 or 50 cents though? I've never seen anything like that while i'm trading. I generally take like 10 - 20 cents on AAPL per trade. Never had anything remotely close to that happen. Hopefully someone else can comment on this. It kinda questions why any scalper is...

Did you even read anything FT posted?????? lol First off, I'm not arguing at all with FT, I'm arguing the author of the article, I didn't even consider FT's opinion on this. I have been talking to FT btw and been exchanging ideas with him VIA pm, so don't you look like a dumbass now...

Scale out :D ....... So then why did you trade in that size this time? It went against you too didn't it?

The only problem I have with that statement is where it says you are betting dollars to make pennies. How does that make sense? Many traders are bringing in at LEAST a dollar per trade in gain if trading 100 shares of stock. People are betting thousands of dollars to bring in a few...

None of the above. I like using moving averages to determine a short-term trend though :)

What broker/platform are you currently using?

I'm just going with the "ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE" theory... If your system/strategy made one trade a year............. who knows, it's possible a system could be 100%, but it will not remain 100% if you continually run it every year since it's start. Although it is possible. I am also...

Scalping in Forex. HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I won't claim I can do it, but I will laugh at anyone that thinks they can. Although there might be a few.... very few, Your odds are even worse with Forex.

Yeah but question is.... is that FREE water purified or is it contaminated?

Sure they do.... just go to any broker website, most have 1 week demo's at least. Try them all and find out what you like. I don't believe Tradestation has it though. IB sucks because they don't offer a full demo, just delayed, and the company takes advantage of the people that like the...

If you are going to be doing automated trading, than this does not apply, but CQG Trader I like. Think of it as the mini-cooper of X_Trader, it's free at many brokerages. But again, that is only if you are doing manual trading. If you are doing automated... well the other suggestions would be...

Scalping? I agree with "slow" and "bumpy" *as in bumps off of support and resistance* But whipsaws.... I dunno about those, I haven't ever seen a trader that has said "I like whipsaws" Always a first for everything. What kind of trading do you do Dr. Zhivodka? Automated? Also...

What is your problem exactly? Lighten up ..... go outside and get some fresh air lol.... Tense day today? But... let me formally appologize for being young... i have respect for all the older and more experienced traders, I hope to be able to perform well consistently. Didn't mean to...

I have a BTA 1 here as well, way back when I first started :)

Exactly.... it's not possible, that is why you should be confused. It's not possible :D That's the point. We have to wait to see what is going to happen.

Price Action! But seriously... if we could predict this, we could also predict the direction.... It's not possible I believe, but it would make things a lot easier.
