today's scalping session: +28 pips

Well, contrary to what I said in my previous post, I'll post the daily results as I have nothing else particular to write today . This is the usual scalping activity, though I try hard to escape from the scalping routine :-) . I am convinced there is more money to make in long-term movements but I can't grab a trend for the moment.

If you look closely to the table , you will see that several trades have a very short duration: sometimes less than 6 seconds. I hope my broker will not kick me out . I read in a forum that brokers sometimes " flag" scalpers and give them quotes with some slippage to discourage this activity.So far, I haven't noticed anything similar . Anyway, I couldn't care less : a breakout is a breakout and that's what I trade :-) . I am not using dirty tricks or cheating the platform: just trading short-term movements.

  2. Hi,

    I am having several brokers depending on the type of assets: fx, options, futures...
    Oanda is easy to scalp as the spread is 0.9 pips.
    They do not provide one click trading which can be a problem if you need to be very fast but I am used to their graph which shows your position(s).

    have a good day.
