In the last 2-3 weeks I have started fresh and have found Michael and another gentlemen who both use Price Action + EMA. I have petty doubled my account at this point, so this will be my new path forward, so thanks again.

The attached image are the trades I took today using the scalping method. I came out +, but took a few losses. But looking back at the losses my 2LPB prediction were wrong. Would love to hear what everyone thinks.

My Setup
3 contracts total
2 scalp + 1 runner

Score
4 - 2
+$225

Trade #1 - buy - stopped out
got in late.
got stopped out
volitility was high
also took the trade in a zone I marked as off limits
It turned into a good trade, but it did not work for me.

Trade # 2 - sold
got 1 pt plus 2 tick runner

Trade #3 - bought
took 1 pt

Trade #4 - bought stopped out
increased contact size 3 scalp + 1 runner
bought too low and not above the wick of the other candle.
got filled then stopped out

Trade #5- bought and stopped out
increased contact size 3 scalp + 1 runner
this buy was a rebound buy and was an emotional
agressive buy.
clearly I was wrong.

Trade #6 - buy
increased contact size 3 scalp + 1 runner
this i took on a 4500 tick chart
entry was sound from a hard rejection candle in a bullish trend
took 2pt + 2.75

Score
3 - 3
loss -$387.50

I enjoyed reading through your thread. Big change in strategy switching to price-action. You mentioned a "Michael" from whom you are learning. Can you share this name of this person/system?
