I wanted to be never a Scalper. But I find the Sharky Method is quite interesting and profitable. This month with Sim-Account, next month with Minilots and then 2% money management. I will make daily 2 trades.
First Trade is SL 10 pips and TP is open ... x lots
If First Trade a Loser then SL 10 pips and TP 10 pips .. x lots * 2 for positionsize (max 2 % of Account) and a strong signal from higher Periods.
Here my rules:
I use 4 Frames.
1. Frame: 6 Range --> MainFrame for Order Entry und Exit
2. Frame: 4 RenkoMedian --> NoiseFilter only for View PriceAction
3. Frame: 8 RenkoMedian --> TrendFilter only for View PriceAction
4. Frame: 16 RenkoMedian --> TrendFilter only for View PriceAction
1. Trade only if all the frames the same color.
1.1 Red Short
1.2 Blue Long
2. Look for PriceAction as Target
3. Target 10 - xxx Pips
4. Sl max. 10 Pips
I look for entries in consolidation zones in the direction of the trend. If the price goes not fast, i close position.
First trades of the day ... I came a little bit late today ... trading time 07:00 - 09:00 gmt +2
11 pips gain

Today i played with Hourly Pivot Points ... i look only for 10 pips ... if that true i close or save position. in this case i close the position by 11 pips.
why i do this, because my higher range chart shows no long trend ...
market is in consolidation zone ...
wh, I like what you've done with the second panel -- the second WMA indicator to draw the defining edge line -- it really works well. I never liked RMMA but with this tiny change I like it a lot more now.

Be consistent with what is in front of you first. 2) Start a journal and post to it daily with the trades you made to show your strengths and weaknesses. 3) Set goals for yourself to reach daily. Make them about how you trade, not how much money you make. 4) Accept responsibility for your actions. Stop looking elsewhere to explain away poor performance. 5) Where to start as a trader?
