Great job!

Well...it was kind of fun posting while being in trades...kind of like live theater ..where if you flop..everyone sees it in real time. But, it can be distracting and take a little away from proper trade management, so I'm not sure if I will do it again ..anytime soon. But today is the type of day where you have momentum and volume ..and it makes most of my setups have a much higher probability of winning. These days don't happen all the time..but when they do, you have to "go for it."

Thank you. I was trying on a lot of those to get at least 20..but I ended up taking 10 when they appeared to be reversing...So, many more 10 tick scalps than usual..But it goes to show, it doesn't really matter how you do it..it's how you end the day. But honestly, for someone without a ton of experience..I don't recommend just trying to always scalp 10 ticks.
