target hit during London around 4:04 AM or 5:56 AM (ET) depending on your broker. Yes, I know some are going to say, "but it went much higher and your trade didn't take advantage of it". Well that's easy to say in hindsight. This method is about ...

Regarding my 1 minute chart signals for eurusd, here is what I'll do. Of course I will continue to trade my regular methods during NY session 8:00 - 12:00, that's where I earn my money. I have studied more 5 min. charts and really feel this 5 min. ...

Well guys I'm happy, my NY Giants beat the Dallas Cowboys to take over 1st place. But still 4 games to go so they haven't won it yet. I'm going to start a new thread and call it "Forex Scalping & Very Short Term Trading. I probably should leave out ...

Dave I am not bull-shitting. That's not my style. I mentioned my system to make a point. And maybe you should recall that I was probably the only person on this forum who saw that TradeVector was full of it right off the bat. You can verify that ...

Well while we're on the subject of "trading systems" I'm going to mention something which I previously wasn't going to in this thread. But here it goes. And this is no BS. I have discovered a phenomenon in the 1 minute EURUSD chart that occurs ...

LOL.... 99% of systems that are sold simply don't work. That's why the sellers are selling the systems. If the system worked so well, simply trade it and make money trading. A lot less headaches IMO. And as far as scalping systems, like I said in ...

Have to be carefull when trading under-the-influence of alchohol. LOL Can be dangerous. I trade just one pair (eurusd). I like to focus and concentrate on one chart. But, if you can do 4 pairs at once, then good for you.

Yes I do agree with you. The monthly return is what's most important. All my talk about weekly earnings is just for reference. I don't withdraw profits weekly, only monthly. JohnFX

I don't think scalping makes one less patient. Either a person is already patient or isn't. But I do have to admit that I am not the most patient person. Mybe that's why I prefer very short term trading. But, with this style of trading you also ...

LOL, I guess I'm a perfectionist. I would like to point out that my average win from the 35 winning trades was about 3.5 pips. My largest was 14 pips. Smallest was of course 1 pip. I'll take any winning trade. Even 1 pip. Better than a losing trade. ...

So what's your point? My goal is simply to make money the way I like to trade. How I accomplish that doesn't really matter, as long as I reach my goal. If I trade 20 or 30 hrs. a week and make $1000 - $2000, then I feel that my goal was ...

Ho Lee, that's the style of a true scalper. And I would like to point out I'm not trading just 1 or 2 mini lots. Presently 20 mini lots ($20 per pip). Working my way up the eventually 50 mini lots per trade ($50 per pip). I "netted" 48 pips. Some of ...
