Important support and resistance levels to watch on low time frames
👀👀
So choppy though. Can't take any entry for granted right now, even good ones.
Short closed. Almost reached target 1. Still have a target 2 a little lower but it can chop around a bit so I'm out with $2k+ profits in less than 1 hour. ✌️

1. Don't enter a trade right when u open the chart. This is FOMO. Unlikely that u open the chart exactly at the top/bottom for perfect entry
2. Zoom out & map out key levels on higher time frame before entering trades on lower time frame
3. Plan out what time frame you want to trade on
4. Look at price action THEN use your indicators to help confirm your directional bias. Indicators are supporting criteria
5. Find counter arguments to your trade. Could you be wrong. Any signs opposing your directional bias?
6. Decide what would INVALIDATE your trade idea. This is where you would absolutely close your position or place your stop loss. We must cut our losers somewhere
7. Calculate how much you are willing to risk on this trade. Do NOT start by calculating how much profit you can make
Went against my own rule & got stopped out on this 1m scalp
Rather than waiting for a 1m close above invalidation I just closed manually as I wasn't going to get stuck in a big green candle if we popped through resistance
When scalping it's all about small losses and killer R:R
Of course I'd never FOMO back in late.
I just wait for my next killer R:R opportunity and have a go.
And then I can add a second position with even less risk and my 1st trade is still valid.
But I'll never fight over and over and over so if stopped here I would be done going against the grain.
