Scalping

Educational: Two ways to take from the marketsOf course there are many ways to take chunks out of the markets. Hundreds of methodologies are out there. And the markets are experts at taking chunks out of you and your account. In the 4.5 min video I briefly show two types of 'attacks' on the market: 1 - Strategic 2 - Tactical . Strategic In the strategic approach (which could be any methodology), you plan very carefully over days. You're a 'sniper', hunkering down in the bush - you make very few movements - you're watching the enemy and waiting for best conditions and opportunity. You suffer sleepless nights. You suffer cold wind, rain, snow, muddy rivers, insects biting you. (These are the scenes from the movies and in realty that are well known - I'm NOT promoting violence or war). And despite all that, you endure. When it's right, you fire one shot! Your 'kill rate' is so good, that one shot is all you need. So the above analogy in market terms, is similar - waiting planning, suffering, and watching those charts, for that one high precision trade. Tactical Right - in this scenario you're at the frontlines doing hand to hand battle with the enemy. You are loaded with armaments, and you use whatever you need. Look - frontline battle is battle - nothing nice about it. In market terms, this is where you get down and dirty - that's why it's called scalping! In scalping you're making short term moves. You're not planning an attack - you're attacking. The enemy - the market - is there to take your heart out (aka your account)! It's either you want to be in that sort of battle or not. But if you're there, you have to have the right knowledge, skills and experience - else you'll be taken out. Making the money The money-making is not in the methodology - it is all about you! If your 'knife' doesn't work well, you're to blame. Don't blame the charts or the tools you use. Can you be both a strategist and a scalper? Of course you can. There is no law saying that a trader can't be both. Conclusion As a knife when used carefully can create good things, using it the wrong way can be dangerous to your safety or that of others. How you use the tool, is a matter of skill and experience. Are you fit enough? Do you have the right knowledge, skill and experience? Avoid the Dunnnng-Kruger effect as applied to traders (for reading about on the net). Disclaimer: This is not advice or encouragement to trade securities or any asset class.

LTCUSD using SMA as area of value and spotting Market Structure The market moves in a wave fashion, and I like to follow patterns and use price action that is current since I use the 1m TF as I like to be in and out with quick profits. Since movement on lower timeframes is what the market is doing at the exact moment we want to be with the moment by taking note of the current structure. The sma or emas or technical anaylsis they react to the movement of pricing and this is your guide to finding trade opportunities. If you have a understanding of how trends move you almost can predict when to make a perfect entry because you already know the behavior of the trend example high higher and lower high your knowledge of the trend is your guide to higher probability of winning a trade.
