    P.S. your doing exactly what I am trying to learn how to do. I want to scalp the YM through automatic trading and pay someone to monitor it. or... i want to position/swing trade myself in the evenings on the YM.

    Has anyone tried or backtested the other 5 methods in Kevin Ho's article? I tried the first method today and achieved 1 ES pt. profit.
    I then tried the "5 minute standard deviation scalp" a couple hours later and bagged another point. I'd be intersted to hear if anyone else has been using these methods.
