    I’m having just as much fun as you are. 😁 I think by scalper you mean my comment. 😉 Strictly speaking, the term day trading would be more accurate. But I really have to say that my systems in month 1, which aim for short-term, manageable profits with 1-5 trades per day, are far superior to my systems in longer time frames, which aim for larger profits with 1-2 trades per day. So yes, the day trading systems have been in the black every month for at least 9 months. – I hope my English is good enough for such complex sentences. 😉

    I just asked my crystal ball, the next 4 hour candle will have a fairly high wick but will be a red candle (kind of bull trap) and the down side will start again and breakdown recent lows… And it is completely free, either i am right or wrong 🙂 (will see if i am right)

    if this prediction will work, it should start to go up in few minutes as soon as next 4h candle will start

    hi phoentzs, sorry – I did not mean your scalping, I have no clue what you are doing, maybe you are doing something similar to scalping. I meant pseudo-scalping of those bot-sellers from north of europe 😀 who join the discussion just in order to advertise something what they are selling. if you are profitable with what your are doing, I am happy for you.

    and Lucas, you seem to have at least some sense of humor with your crystal ball. hope it contributes to the profitability/competitivnes our your approach 😀

    @justisan Everything’s fine. In the end, no one can predict anything, otherwise we’d all be rich by now. 😁 But I believe that certain signals from larger time frames that are associated with momentum can be captured quite well in smaller time frames. Regardless of which direction the market ultimately goes… a few pips are enough for me. I basically just capture the momentum surges, and if the market then pulls back, it’s no big deal. That’s all I do. And it seems to be working quite well.

    not sure, not so much sure Lucas… I bet 99.9% you are a guy (almost no women trade, and Lucas might be your right name, which is for man), but the hand on the photo looks like one from a woman…

    Haha… It’s because I asked my wife to hold the ball (the crystal one, no bad joke here) while I took the picture…

    About my prediction…
    I though the candle would have a greater high wick, but it remains a bull trap.

    Bulb trap.

    But I can help Lucas a little. This is really a woman holding the ball. I know, because, well, this is in my own house, and my wife is Lucas’ girlfriend.
    All I did was a little trading which turned out badly. Anyway I have the $, Lucas has not, but he has a girlfriend and I lost my wife.

    But I have the ball too … And the house !
    And the Helium Bulb Indicator (HBI) of course. But that turns out to be worthless, so I will dump that to the market place.

    I kind of hope that

    1. your wife knows how much she influences the markets and feels responsible for that!
    2. your prediction about bull trap is wrong because I am long dax with several positions right now

      regarding 2… kind of boring truth is that I don’t care if it’s bull trap or bear trap or whatever trap. for me these are just another few trades which do what they do. just another few trades among other few hundred trades per year, which do “not care” about if it is now up-trend, down-trend, where are the next supports and resistances, and if we will reach all time highs until christmas or not…
