Greetings all! [GREETING & INTRO]

I’m brand new, to date I’ve read much on offer from BabyPips.com. What a great resource it’s been with the school, bloggers and community, respectively.
A bit about myself. I’m a student helicopter pilot / medic / amateur photographer from South Africa looking to learn more and slowly develop my awareness in trading. Husband and father too!

[QUESTION]

I recently attended a seminar hosted by a recognised international brokerage. It was focused on people just entering forex, so simple and easy was sensible. The one system presented was called a one-minute scalp focused on the US NFP. I watched the most recent NFP release on the 2nd June '17 and it looked to be 565’ish pips going long [ eur/usd ].

Can anyone recommend any other news based releases that would work best with the One minute scalp?

One min scalp is a very hard thing to do , you should look for NFP ISM,GDP,Interest rates decisions, FOMC ECB DRAGHI speeches all red news.

I would recommend you not to use one min scalp, i have done this myself its needs much more focus and best executions and above all is emotion control and loss acceptance.

Thank you for your input and cautioning. I’ll definitely not disregard it.

Welcome UberFx.

I agree with the previous post about scalping. I would personaly avoid trading the smaller charts and scalping but thats just my opinion.

I wish you success and best of luck to you
