    Hope I have attached the correct pdf here but when I'm scalping I have found this method very realiable. See what you think guys.

  7. What exactly are you saying here, is this a typo? Thanks for the attachment, I'll look it over later. I cut two trades off at the knees :mad: I went 4 for 4 :) ...... I have to shut down early today ... good luck, Men (assuming).

  8. Had a look at it...first problem is the opening and shut off period...IMO shut off too late...volumes drop significantly after say 15 gmt.

    I have a set up that starts 6.30 gmt...bit before europe gets moving..

    Conceptually...not bad though.

    I am not a time trader....but everybody to their own....:p

    When I first came across it, the 30ema, reminded me of George Lane who further developed the Stochs, GL would put a trendline on the 5m t/f and wait for it to break, he always used a 38sma. Both these ma's are pretty much the same. Both techniques are ok for a few pips.
