    Range, risk management and re-entries. I often scalp dozens of times daily like today UVXY

    I feel like George Costanza when I trade. Whatever move appears the most obvious the opposite is usually the profitable one.

    I like to scalp 5min and 1min. I think two timeframes up is where you should be look for trend anything higher and you're vulnerable to pullbacks that will knock a scalper out

    As a day trader, being in the first few positions of the herd is your BEST friend.

    The range is not your fried.
    The range is your reality. 70% of time.
    To much money left on table during the day because trend calculation. If you want comfortably make money during the day, you should master the range. Trend flowing is nice for big accounts.
    If you want to bring bread on your table withe less then 100k.. you must have adge over trend

    OK by me;
    we don't want everybody trying to do the same thing.
    Markets would not work well if that happened.

    Don't know why I didn't notice this at first glance but scalp <> trend.

    Anything but.
