What you need to do is start being dynamic. If you are finding trouble because the Eurostoxx aren't moving during a certain period, you are probably better off getting half of your size out for 2-ticks profit and trying to re-bid or re-offer half for a tick or two better. If it straight lines towards your profit target then just move your target away. Just a consideration. It's what I have to do many times because order flow & volatility constantly change every day.
Whats the current Lag time from for a scalper? I am currently in Pattaya and have a ping time of about 16 ms ( Not that ping matters so much as I am no longer a scalper )
You're lucky. My ping in Patong, Phuket is always over 100ms. I'm in Penang, Malaysia right now and it's over 300ms. I don't scalp primarily for this reason and have changed to trades that last a few hours. Mainly in Buxl though, Bund maybe 30% of the time when the entries are better.
hi guys. you mentioned so huge speed of ping. I understand that it is importent... but could you explain how are you going to trade with reaction of 50 ms..
