I accidentally took it and, from idleness at lunchtime, figured it out, it seems, in the scalping technique.
correct, what's wrong?
1. only glass level2 is needed, tape doesn't help much, minute chart.
2. choose a highly liquid stack, who rushes in range 1 cent for 5 minutes or more (Citibank is perfect now, for example)
3. смотрим в стакан и подсчитываем ориентировочно "на глазок" by the number of orders and the width of the level on which side is the advantage.
4. if on the side of buyers, then we start buying – 1 cent profit, 1 cent stop. all hands. one finger is placed on the buy, another to sell all around the market and let's go: if citibank is now walking on 4.16, Spread – 1 cent, we – 4.15, ask – 4.16.. wait until the price becomes equal 4.15 – we buy, rises to 4.16 – we sell and so on, while the customers are pulling the rope.
5. we dig a lot on the keyboard)
6. and paragraph, which should, in theory, go first – find a broker, which, with a deal in a cent, will leave at least some crops of money for the poor scalper))))
what is it? what's wrong?
friends, who is active in scalping of you?
exactly as I described..
Short in Europe, kept at the output of GDP, sorry that the third order for used :)
Second deal – sell in america, closed to zero.
Trader and consultant Cynthia Case relies on a set of technical indicators, which it has developed for its own trading signals. Case accept decisions solely on these technical indicators and totally relies on the basic analysis. It was first introduced to trading in August 1983 when the management of Standard Oil of California – the company where she worked at the time, transferred it to the trading department under the training program management personnel. With a specialty chemical engineer, Case has brought new perspectives in the practice of trading. “In 1983 there were two things that are important and interesting in the oil trade, – says Case. – Appeared in 1983 a contract for crude oil, and the personal computer has finally worked his way into business. I persuaded them to put the computer in the room, where trading was conducted. For the trader the early 80’s I was very knowledgeable in the computer on, because I had a technical education. ”

I know, you have already seen it. but by indirect signs people are imposed the following thought:
Geithner: i did a good job.
Politicians: No, while you “at the wheel” dollar fell.
(inspired by several interviews. By the way, Bernanke must go too. or raise your bid yesterday)
I don't like this world. destructive creation (in terms of Schumpeter, as an image) not yet completely destructive. 2008 ouch, come back soon, you are welcome.
PS.
No, well you seriously agree, that economically at least as much educated person can use arguments:
*while unemployment continues to rise, it's you Geithner's fault.
*and the dollar is falling, it's you Geithner's fault.
?
ЗЗЫ.
Yes, I wrote the name that way)
I want to explain why I removed the positional short status today.
Since the critical area 20-23 November created conflicting signals and there is no quick materialization of the negative, I considered it necessary to remove the risky positional short in order to, to remove risks and so that readers comply with money management and act strictly according to plan. Sit in position and hope is wrong. Better to sit out and wait for the technical picture to be clarified.. Therefore, the style should be while scalp or swing.
I closed my small positional short at a loss, but almost blocked it with fast swing and scalp trades. If there is a delay in the materialization of the negative, then it is better to wait and maybe the situation will be, when the scalp can turn into a positional trade.
What is not enough money left with them.)))

Doesn't feel like owning stock, really need to find out, what's in the portfolio of Maiden Lane ( This is a holding company created with the purchase of JP Morgan Bear Stearns). In this portfolio then, that, according to the Fed's definition, it is very risky to keep JP Morgan on the bail. Probably some kind of illiquid.
