engtraderfx Posted July 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2009 Re: Pairs Suitable for Scalping The type of system I am talking about is similar to other scalpers..short term swings during asian session using systems like fapt, md, stomp, enterra etc) My current list of potential short term pairs is below. Unfortunately they don't all respond exactly same so have tried different filters like mov avg etc. with varying success. Anyone else been successful with other pairs outside the standard fare (eurgbp, eurchf, usdcad, gbpchf)?. Potential scalping pairs: CADCHF EURCAD EURGBP EURCHF EURUSD (ie md) EURJPY (ie md) GBPCAD GBPCHF GBPUSD USDCAD USDCHF They all show potential but need different times eg EURUSD as we know with md has a very short time period. Also with many pairs the risk must be dialled right down as some are correlated (eg usd crosses). There seems good opportunity here, if you can get many systems running with low risk the combined return might be good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pipslovah Posted July 14, 2009 Report Share Posted July 14, 2009 Re: Pairs Suitable for Scalping Best thing when scalping is with an ECN broker with spreads of 0.5 to max 2 pips on the majors and u should be ok to scalp most pairs without much problems.
