Today is very interesting day about BTC.
I don't like to trade support and resistance, but today it worked out perfectly.
Check the chart. I have drawn the lines in the morning, the price was higher the blue line.
I made 3 block of trades (all longs):
+0.05%
+0.24%
+0.22%
As I said few days ago if the price will come to EMA 200 on 12h TF the panic sale could start.

RyuRyu, if i understood your star trades are similar like a keltner extremes, with delta and volume.
Let's examine it from left to right.
First was short sequence (I missed it, was sleeping). But it was perfect.
Next it was reverse candle found near 2x ADR distance. (I missed it, was sleeping). Perfect long.
#3 was perfect long signal (I missed it, was looking at the chart, but it was XAU trade open).
And finally I have taken that beautiful one. Again reverse candle far far away from EMA 55 in this case.
P.S. OMG screenshot looks like a face

These days are often interesting when all commodities pairs are opposite direction.(on/off risk)
I hasn't like to use extreme channel values, maybe have to review because of possibility use delta,vol for filtering best entries.
Sure it's good alert, if dare to take nap
Saint face
charts. Do you have some secrect sauce in your charts, because you never show times at bottom of images ?
Immediately after open comp, i saw EU and took short 13.02 vol and delta was there. All ready out.
Had to get stuff from town took 4hours , living in "off grid" pleasure. I would love to use that time for trading.
Hope RyuRyu and Rick and folks have pocket lotsa pips.

In fact I'm just lazy ass, so I don't want to manually adjust data, that's why I have created it that way. I'll post screenshots with time, no problem. Today I made these trades: Long BTC +0.11% Long XAU +3.03% Long BTC +0.05% Long BTC +0.24% Long BTC +0.22% Long XAU +0.86% Short GU +0.52% Short GU in 2 +0.49% Long XAU +2.44% Long XAU +0.48% Long XAU +0.5% Long GU +0.28% Long XAU +0.34% Short GU +0.25% Short GU +0.31%...

Enjoying thanks giving lotsa turkey,pumpkin pie good company and sauce.

Keep going you will do it at the end. Best of luck. Milk the Market (MM)
{quote} I didn't say scalping is impossible. Everything is possible with dedication. It hurts when you give back your earnings even when somebody says everything is good. Same as you and Ryan I was only concentrating daily scalps, but after sometime eureka moment hit me. Eureka: Aim big, at least to get the slice. I set 300-500 pips targets and average up and average down between those targets. And it can done stress free. Sure he will recover his loss. I wish him luck
For me stress free is , i donīt have a position open. I am trading not investing, i don't create a portfolio.
and today have been hitting many peoples stops, who trade higher time frames.
As earlier talking about rookie traders an other thread, people don't get enough trades and experience if they have just only few entries per week.
its hard to learn how prices moves, how price matching algos work. how they jump to a new structure or level where they land.
Putting different indicators trying different methods, and wondering why this is not working. I mean if know scalping it can be much more easier start trading higher time frames.
Many of my trades are very good entries for swing trading. But i don't do it. Less I am vulnarble for market movements i feel relax.
Why trade forex, higher time frame, forex has much more worse condition than stock markets. Every way. I dont got it.
For me scalping is natural way trading, because has done it ES during market open (which can be fast), and often i could close my comp after 15 mins opening bell.

I have a strategy. I have a lot of bots, custom indicators, auto-calculations etc.
If trade with rules it will be ok most of time. I have gained +9.27% today (it was +196.66% since start) and then decided to open XAU Long with to signal, no rules. Why? I don't know.
Then I have added more position, then another one. Then I made about 10 entry-exits with 3rd position and gained some profit. But then as you saw price reversed and hit my SLs.
For example my 35% loss with BTC was the same way: I just was in position late night and left it with no attention. In the morning it was underwater. But it was not scalping, but long-term trade (it called swing as I understand, but may be I'm wrong).
That's why I want to create full-auto trading.
About scalping or not. Be bigger the distance the smaller order size must be. For example I need 46 points on gold to be profitable and that distance is achievable with almost any trade. But for example 460 or 4600 points... I just don't know how to trade it.
I'm using... let's say... gravity rules. Physics. Volume and delta helps a lot to find the vacuum.
Anyway my failures are only because of me, not because of scalping. I can fail the same way in long-term trades too. I'm super professional in failures. This is my super power

,When I don't have an open position, I'm on vacation
. Good for you if you are draining pips to your pool. I'm open to any ideas and doesn't defend same idea. One day something I defend can slap my face, so I keep researching and learning.

I was writing about one strategy of mine what haven't use for three years because broker/lp start ducking me. (slipage and other tricks) its for xau and eu.., but didn't want to explain it more, today, because off, you have something else now in your mind.
because of you and Rick start talking about XAU, i downloaded tick data at morning, and run it first time since 2018. and it looks good. i dont have VPS now, specially U.S, we can talk this more if you like. I was running it couple years fine, before maybe they put it me virtual trader plugin, because answers were silly. I can explain it more if you wish. You or Rick can test it if want, it uses standard mt4 stuff no external dll or indicators.
I have couple statments saved if you want look them.
I just tell this because you mention about want run strategies. I can share statements here or drobox. then can talk more, Rick knows something about my past what i have told him, but off course he cant verify have been talking bullshit to him. I am not trying to sell it to you or Rick.
My business is trading, and I like you and Rick. I own one favour (hopefully i can pay it back) for Rick. This has been best month for me this year. Maybe its because of Delta and Volume.
If you testing it demo, and it looks oke, i can put funds to real account before you risk it. so acid test.
and source code will come after trust is done. I have done millions line of code and its not fancy me anymore, and would be nice to see if delta and volume can help, that no broker can start messing again. There could be something joint project.

BTW here on FF it was great scam thread where I found that idea about 0.25% step size for EU and then created that approach about multiplier. Initial idea was simple and not interesting, but it was like a trigger. So even in garbage we can find some gold!
So let's join the Project together! You, RickM and me can be a great team!
