    What is trading to you?

    Bingo if it wasn’t he could just shift a few $$ over to some struggling ET traders or give it all to charity. Of course it is about the money. Take the money factor out and would he continue day after day? Doubtful!

    What do you focus on in price actions?

    Basically yes. Once you see your actual risk and can measure it in points or whatever, then you extrapolate that upwards (in this particular trade) from your blue dot entry. So that would be your new PT (Based on dynamic PA) right around your red dot area and right at the top of a bull channel...

    What do you focus on in price actions?

    On averaging down the reason I do it because I trade on principles correlated with dynamic PA. For instance, there is an established range and prior to that TR there was a bear trend. I am viewing that range as a sort of bear flag with a likely continuation of the bear trend. I see it as a pause...

    What do you focus on in price actions?

    I usually shoot for a 2:1 or 3:1 reward to risk initially, but that is only in my initial setup when I am taking the trade. That is I consider initially taking a scalp IF I think it will likely give me 2:1 or 3:1. Once I get in the trade I look at actual risk (how much it actually went against...

    What do you focus on in price actions?

    as it turned out it was both a long and short opportunity, which happens often. the long scalp was one it traded back up into the range towards the middle and exiting at your orange dot. So it was a good long scalp. the short opportunity happened after the subsequent successful BO south out of...

I am assuming you were thinking 2nd entry on a H2 (Or H1 depending on how count it )from a PB In a bull channel. However the odds would have been more in...

    Theories on how markets react after FOMC meeting tomorrow?

    Since when has either side ever seriously thought about the deficit much less the total debt. Clinton was the last one I know of that had a budget surplus which was promptly spent into oblivion by congress. Mr T will win by landslide in elect. Votes and will also win popular vote but that may...

    What do you focus on in price actions?

    I focus on the bullish/bearish pressures as they are graphically drawn out on the chart in the larger context and the immediate context and then the probability of the winning side winning for at least a little bit more. Then I look for a setup within that immediate context and take a position...

    Techniques for Day Trading the ES, NQ, YM, MES, MNQ, and MYM

    That is not a bad strategy at all. Especially in longer trends. I too scale in on a larger move as price moves my way and if I see enough pressures to keep the move going. Why? Because the market has inertia and I am betting it will continue far enough to be profitable for scaling in as it moves...
