Out of GU sell
Not scalp bought - will only look at that above 28 and 31 - as did not want to keep scalping for just 1-5 pips all afternoon - it's tiring ;-)

AU
Noticed its been down to 9310 - I had thought 20 -23 area would hold it - but no luck and the scalp buy never got over 28.
Bounces staying under 9322 are still scalp sells again for now

hi Neil
Surprised you bought at 93172 - i would have needed above say 9323 - as up to 22 had still in a scalp sell mode
It made 93177 on my chart and then fell again - but now its whether i will fall under 10 - or post a HL
If it post a HL at say 11 or 12 - I still need over last high at say 177 + then 21 to take new scalp buys - as below 93177 still a scalp sell for me
Good Luck though

AU&UJ stopped out.
The AU entry was valid. 'Previously' used demand with valid PA.
The UJ was clutching at straws enry no PA.
I'm trying to ratchet up the entries as I tend to hesitate.
I'll be back with more. That's 4 loses on the bounce.

I would be interested to understand your scalping method - and I can see you are working on tight stops - which is good and you need to with scalping - but do you target just say 3-7 pips or are you after 10 -20 pip targets ?
Its always difficult if you are counter trading - you either need to be in with 1 or 2 pips of interim highs or lows and of course get your timing correct for a "bouncy ball " type effect.
Dont worry - as the markets are tough after the bigger moves of today
I wish you well and please don't worry about posting more etc - and i will comment if I am trading similar pairs and agree etc etc
Regards

GU
i exited all of scalp sells prior to 5 00 pm at 6614 area
i was not going to scalp buy until it made over the 28 and 31 area and it made just 23/4
Under 21 and 19 was a scalp sell again - and now price as made another low at 6611
under 6617 its still a scalp sell on PA but needs now under 6610 and 07 to hold on longer for tests of the big round number support
Also for scalp buys - we need really above 25 now - ist OK taking them at say 18 - but still might turn down again under 25 and drop lower

AU
Price at 9307 and we need over 13 /14 minimum to take scalp buys and then need over 9318+ to hold them on for a larger move up.
We have not gone under 9300 yet - but if 9305 low lest go you tend to think it will test the big round number

I wanted to sell around 137 00 area and price now is sticking at 137 02
Need now under 97 and 95 to confirm a scalp sell is being tried with 137 03/4 as a stop

AU finding support at yesterdays low. This might be in a swing down move now.
UJ going higher will try shorting around 920. That should be a new swing move.

Wednesday 20th August 2014 - Pre Midnight on Tuesday
Just a quick message to say i will not be starting this thread until after 7 15 am tomorrow ( Wednesday )
This is approx 45 mins later than normal - as got to drop part of family off at Airport
Then after 10 am i am out for another hr or so as I prepare for another break after Friday.
I hope to be around prior to more red Pound news at 9 30 am and CAD at lunchtime and then notice FOMC meeting mins at 7 00 pm in the evening - so will try and fit those into my trading time
Have a good trading day
Regards
