Number of pips / points is secondary to win rate + RR.
Obvious, though easy to forget.

40 pts
A bit of chop with orange news but these setups are quite reliable.
Done for the day.

23Not a great entry, but I miss many trades waiting for the deeper retracement big dots.
The tradeoff of course is RR, it needs quite a wide stop loss.
Notice that the low was a liquidity run on on the D1 swing low from last Tuesday.
This could still go on to the open line and beyond, but I'm done for now.

24OTE: Something else to think about that I keep forgetting.
Does this make it a higher probability trade? I don't know but it happens a lot.

Re: Scalping Nasdaq -simplified XARD
26Somewhere in there would be the A+ entry.
tight stop would mean huge RR (for me, huge is anything bigger than 1:4).
Again, it happens a lot.
But like all things trading, a lot easier to spot on the left hand side of the chart than on the right...

27Chopped up a bit at NY open trying to be clever.
Expect its going to the D1 high, but not going to chase.

This is nothing new nor original, just putting it in a Xard context which makes it somewhat easier to spot, for me at least.
For this model m1 scalps on Nasdaq not sure how useful anything above SEMA 55 or the anchored vwap are. TBD amongst a host of other questions.

29Idea forming: London opens in 30 mins or so, may look to go short if setup forms, though last week's high also calling so it may need to go higher first. Let's see.
