    Smile Best scalping method

    I came across this method surfing the web.
    Its something i use every day and aim for 40 pips daily at 2% of bank.
    I use intertrader advanced charts on a spread betting platform
    They have low spreads of 1 to 3 pips on the markets i trade
    as follows
    GBP/USD ALL DAY
    EUR/USD ALL DAY
    DAX MORNINGS
    WALL ST (30) DOW JONES

    open a blank screen on 5 minutes 50 units
    add pivots,bollinger bands
    psar 0.10 0.11

    go to indicator /backtest
    add MACD 5 8 9 SETTINGS

    Use Psar dot as entry stop loss and enter trade when macd and psar are both same colour
    only on FIRST new red or green psar
    on currencies i place target as 5/10 pips and sell 70% of position at first target
    the remainder whether good or bad is on a trailing stop loss.
    On indices there's usually a good run a couple of times a day
    I place target as 10/20 pips and apply sell 70% of position if 1st target reached and
    leave the remainder to trailing stop loss.
    On some occasions recently left 30 % of trade running and came back to 60 pips profit
    far more than i expected.
    40 pips is easily achievable and i'm allowing my account to compound and use 2%.
    I have traded for over 10 years with mixed success and used to work in the city in the
    fx settlements dept.
    Very happy to recommend to all

    i believe you're talking about this strategy
    forex-strategies-revealed Scalping system #4 (5 pips with GBP/USD)
    but it talks about psar on macd, so it's a slightly different.
    could you share your template plz.
    Thanks!

    hello, did you use the macd from mt4 itself or macd histogram? because it's different.
    Thanks!

    please share your tpl on mt4. i have some confusion on the indicator setting especially the psar, which one is 0.10 and which one is 0.11.
    Thanks very much!

    no idea how to do screen shots
    As i'm only looking for 40 pips takes about 8 trades
    sometimes closes after 5 pips and retraces 5 to close leaving loss/breakeven
    about 6/8 trades required.
    I'm trying to improve 75% success rate by trading at busier periods in other reply
    good luck

    How long have you been trading using this method? Do you trade
    mostly London, NY, or Asian session?
