Assisting the tidal wave or does it??
Would you say Swing trading is a better strategy than Scalping. I just thought of something When you enter a counter trade after being matched on one side (unmatched bet) surely this counts as a difficult task to get the other half matched, does this order not assist the money on the other side of the book sending you into red square along with the other happy traders into green square just a thought. I now do not put counter orders in, especially on the US markets a market i hated before but now i manage to get some massive swings.
i dont understand how one method can be said to be better or worse than another. the method used is dictated by the type of market, its volatility, how much time till the off ,whether trending or ranging etc, and if the trader is capable of exploiting it.
