Real scalping is interpreting orderflow, that shit is just a scam.

Yes we're out there.

I have just looked at the word doc at this link and I must agree with NY0B

I am not sure if it is a scam as I have no intention of reading all the posts but the word doc sums it all up as being rubbish.

Traders don't need any of that stuff to make some money but they do need to be fast and also have the ability to change their minds very quickly.

I like to say that traders need to be targeting the Mach4-1:)

I hate all these terms. I remember trying to "choose" to be one when a total beginner. Are you seriously telling me you won't follow a momentum move up or down for more just because you a "scalper"?

sure will, but trailing stop will be tiny.
