limited time trading ----> focus on scheduled events
Forextrader2361,
If you have limited time to trade and/or wish not to be sitting in front of the trading screens - then consider focusing on the following trading/scalping ideas:
1. Focus on trading events/periods where there is significant increased trading volume and volatility.
2. Idea A ----> focus on scheduled News/Reports release times/dates that best fit your trading time availability. There are plenty of "red folder" News/Reports per week to trade around.
3. Idea B ----> focus on breakout trades around Opening Sessions (Asian, London, NYSE).
There are plenty of ideas and trading applications here in T2W on (2) and (3) above. You just have to dig deeper. Also some ideas available on You-Tube (but don't assume any are winning trading methods). You should do the work - define and research your own EDGE above.
We know of plenty of FX traders focused on (2), (3) - able to really limit trading times around these and do pretty well overall.
Note: Look at NFP report 0830am NY on Fri, 08.05.2016 ----> easily should take out at least (+20 pips) to (+40 pips) in profits. Aggressive FX traders often can take out (+50 pips) to (+100 pips) on NFP days. And these happen every month.
Then study FOMC mtg days. Then study Central Bank report days for GBP, AUD, JPY, NZD. What above Dairy report for NZD? Again - just many good scheduled News/Events per week to scalp around (and not require long screen-trading times).
Finally - I do enjoy trading Nadex considerably - focusing on M5 forex bars, and also focusing on the 2-hr Nadex expiry.
However - trading binary options (even on Nadex) is not a hot topic for T2W traders and members in general. So will limit discussion here. You can always feel free to PM me if you have any ideas you like to discuss.
Good luck - ask away as often as possible. Tons of good traders and members here in T2W more than happy to hep and give input!
