🎯 3 Strategies to Focus on Today

1. Ultra-fast Scalping

Objective: Capture mini-movements (a few pips or cents) on very liquid assets, such as EUR/USD or European indices.

Use 1–5 minute charts + indicators (EMA, Bollinger Bands, RSI/MACD).

Plan for very tight stop-losses (≈ 1–2 × ATR) and exit without emotion as soon as the target is reached.

2. Intraday Momentum

Look for stocks with momentum — e.g., those of the day whose volume explodes above the average.

Rely on scanners (TradingView, Interactive Investor, etc.), particularly heavily traded European/UK stocks this morning: Glencore, Rolls-Royce, Lloyds, etc.

Enter when the price breaks a level, with a stop below the last local low and take profit at a ~2:1 ratio.

3. Breakout from Range

On stocks or pairs without a clear trend, wait for horizontal stagnation, then play the breakout below or above.

Combine support/resistance and MACD + volume confirmation.

Exit as soon as the range is broken, stop just outside.

⏰ Best Timings

Opening (9 AM – 10 AM CET) and closing offer the deepest movements.

The period from 10:30 AM to 12 PM is often calmer, thus less interesting for scalping.

🛠️ Best Practices of the Day

Pre-opening scanner to identify top movers (e.g., via TradingView).

Manage risk: only risk a maximum of 1% of capital per trade, automatic stop-loss.

Limit leverage during this uncertain period.

Trading journal: note entry/exit, reason, result — useful for adjusting to volatility inflation.
