usd/chf lookin like starting its lil 60/70 pip rally before cont dntrnd....
gamma.. could wait and add your other lot higher, since your scalping...
but if 24x2 is an ouch then A MUST switch to .5 lotz per trade until consistent

gamma...

i think you're trying to fight the trend.... make the trend your friend... and you'll be fine...

try to cover your longs if you see 9290/9300 level....

looks like downtrend has resumed and will likely target 9160 enroute to 9000 level....

i wouldn't be surprised to see swissy fall to 8800 level in coming months... gl/gt

Have you heard the phrase "One market". All are one.

I am not so experienced trading currencies as most futures instruments. I am still learning from Ashraf and others about the correlations.

Gamma, my internals for stocks tell me about real strength/weakness versus manipulations and head fakes so this gives me a quite accurate picture for risk appetite/aversion, whether to take seriously. For currencies its more about correlations between pairs and versus commodities & treasuries. Individual currency strengths also need watching.
