    i wait for second entries and then watch them carefully.

    if the with trend entry triggers, i take that for a scalp.

    if that does not trigger and the market continues, then i take that for a scalp.

    now even if a second entry with trend entry is trap, it usually gives a scalp why? because the market has to trap novices and the novices will only enter and get trapped if the market moves in a direction for some time, which will take your scalp trade to your target.

    you have to outthink the market

    this basically fcuks [sic!] the market .

    i know how to spell that but baron is watching

    Trading is a full contact sport.

    if i expect a trade go up from a certain point and it does not do that i get out.

    i do not wait for my technical stop to get hit.

    now a swing trader would do that .it is not that he stupid.it is because she is thinking differently.
    you must know are you a scalper or a swinger


    this is important: a scalper must know what she expects the trade to do.

    if it does not do that then it can be no doubt that the market is gifting you a scalp in the other direction.

    now if it does the unexpected thing then a lot of traders are going to be scrambling to re position themselves and you will get spike .

  9. I have tried his trading room and it seemed fishy. He would later announce a position not in real-time and so on. His commentary and market analysis are pretty good but his room is expensive.

    so i was smart or bad

    i never paid him a cent for anything.
    eventually i felt guilty and did buy his books.

    i should have bought the English version: my book was in Chinese ,i think, or maybe Japanese or Greek.
