Fellow trader,
If you are currently scalping FX markets (or are planning to), there are certain
universal rules that you simply need to know to survive. Beyond these rules exist
another level of knowledge that very few traders possess...
This private document will begin to shed some light on what you likely don’t know
about how to successfully scalp the Forex markets in such a way that puts the
market at the mercy of your trades…not the other way around, as is so often the
case.
Scalping the Forex market brings certain challenges that you don’t have when
trading on larger time frames. For example, if you are trying to take 100+ pips out of
the market with a spread of 2 pips, the cost of this trade is only 2% of the total. Now,
if you are scalping for 10 – 15 pips with a 2 pip spread, the cost of this trade is as
high as 20%.
So, if you are going to be scalping the Forex market you need to be very strategic
with your approach, or you will get eaten for breakfast. There are literally hundred
of sharks out there in the form of highly skilled professional traders, and large
banks that are waiting to prey on the individual retail trader like you, who so often
have no clue what they are doing.
For the sharks, you are easy prey, and easy profit, and your loss is always their gain.
They literally profit on all of your losses, and for them it's like shooting fish in a
barrel.
So in order to avoid being the prey, you need to have a solid understanding of how
the markets work. Armed with the knowledge you are about to receive, you will not
only be protected from sharks, you will also be in a power position that will allow
you to consistently scalp profits out of the market over and over again...just as I do.

You also will be far ahead of the large majority of the other traders out there who
“think” they know how the markets move, but so often don't.
There is a method to the madness of what some people think are the
“unpredictable” Forex markets. Once you understand how the markets flow, you
will begin to see them as I do, and the mystery will start to unravel itself to you.
• There is a “code” to the markets, after many years of intense study and
practice, I have cracked it.
• There are “loop holes” that exist as well, I have identified them, and know
precisely when to take advantage.
The techniques you’re about to discover and the “cheat sheets” that I have
assembled for you are going to begin to crack this “code” that few traders even
know exist. Having this understanding will put the odds back in your favor, and give
you the control so that you can consistently trade the market, while avoiding the
typical challenges that scalping brings.
Below we are going to look at five different approaches that will immediately help
you stack your deck in your favor, and begin to crack the code of the Forex
markets... so you can see them, and even begin to trade them, as I do.

CHEAT SHEET #1
Counter-Trend Scalping
During Choppy Markets
Most traders don’t think about scalping during choppy, ranging market conditions,
but this is one of the best and most consistent scalping trades I take.
The first thing that you need to ask yourself when scalping choppy markets (a.k.a.
counter-trends) is:
The best times that I have found to scalp the market using counter-trend strategies
are:
These time-frames may seem a bit odd at first glance, but if you think about it a
little more closely they makes perfect sense!
Lower market activity typically results in choppy markets. And since choppy
markets are what we’re after, then off-hours trading (i.e. when the banks are closed)
and pre-news announcements are some of the most predictable times of “chop”
because these time-frames have some of the lowest trading activity of all!
We’ll talk more about pre-news trading in just a bit, but first let’s talk about scalping
during “off-hours”…

Off-Hours Scalping
Between 3:00pm and 7:00pm eastern standard time is when all the world banks
are closed. The U.S. banks are closing their doors and the Asian banks have not yet
opened. This is a great time to scalp the market using a counter-trend strategy,
because no larger banks are moving money (i.e. the markets) at that time.
Without the banks around to move the markets, the currency pairs will become
“choppy” and begin moving sideways in a fairly tight range. And it’s these tight
ranges that are the ideal scalping environment…when you know what you’re
looking for.
The screen shot below shows the low volume 3:00pm and 7:00pm eastern
standard time in the EUR/USD on the hour time. As you can see, on both days the
market moved into a choppy, counter-trending mode because the banks and other
institutional traders weren’t around to move the markets.
Off-

As the screenshot above illustrates, once a currency pair has crossed the 3pm EST
threshold, it will rarely move above the 3pm closing price (assuming it closed high)
or below the 3pm closing price (assuming it closed low) during the “off-hours”
period.
So one way to scalp during off-hours is to use the high close (at 3pm) as the top
“high water mark” or the low close (again, at 3pm) as the bottom “low water
mark”.
When the price hits (or moves very close to) the high or low water mark, you would
look for the pair to retrace. In other words…
A typical range on the 1 hour chart during “off-hours” is 30 pips, so when I’m
trading this strategy during this time-frame I’m looking to scalp 10 – 15 pips.
I also apply a 1 : 1 risk to reward ratio, meaning if I’m looking to scalp 15 pips I use a
15 pip stop-loss. If I’m looking to scalp 10 pips I’ll use a 10 pip stop-loss.
SIDE NOTE: I realize that the markets don’t technically close in the U.S. until
5:00pm EST, but they slow drastically the final two hours, which is why I say
you can treat the 3:00pm – 5:00pm like “off-hours”.
That said, if you want to be even more conservative, use the U.S. close at
5:00pm (as opposed to the 3:00pm close) to establish your high and low
water marks. This will give you less trading opportunities (because you have
two less hours to trade), but it should improve your overall accuracy.

Another way to trade during “off-hours” is to use the 3:00pm and the 5:00pm close
to establish your “Dead-Time Range”.
SIDE NOTE: The “Dead-Time Range” is another word for the range during the
off-hours trading period.
• Go LONG if the price is below the mid-point of the first bar after 5:00pm,
and…
•
Go SHORT if the price is above the mid-point of the first bar after 5:00pm
Trade on the 1 hour chart and look to pull 10 – 15 pips using a 1 : 1 risk to reward
ratio. (Remember, the typical range during “off-hours” for the major pairs is only 30
pips.)
Pre-New Scalping
The 12 to 15 hours before an important news announcement (i.e. the U.S. FOMC
announcement or the U.S. Non-farm payroll) is a low volume time in the market as
well because most banks and institutional traders are sitting on the sidelines
waiting to see what the news will be.
And as we just discussed, lower trading volumes lead to choppy, ranging markets.
And again, choppy, ranging markets are one of the best times to scalp and pull pips
out of the market.
The next screen shot shows the 17 hours before two U.S. news announcements
were released (the CPI report and the FOMC announcement). Here again, the
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/603010-scalping-cheat-sheets 7/16
7/29/2019 603010 Scalping Cheat Sheets
market moved sideways, but allowed for enough movement to scalp the market
several times…
To scalp the pre-news announcement, we need to first get the “Dead Time Range”
midpoint we established back in “Off-Hours Trading Strategy #2”, because the
“Dead Time Range” for off-hours trading can also be used to predict the range for
the 12 – 15 hours prior to a news announcement (since it’s a type of “Dead Time”).
Once the “Dead Time Range” and midpoint have been established, we’ll use the
same strategy discussed in “Off Hours Trading Strategy #2” to trade the pre-news
announcement.
• Go LONG if the price is below the mid-point the first bar after 5:00pm, and…
• Go SHORT if the price is above the mid-point the first bar after 5:00pm
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/603010-scalping-cheat-sheets 8/16
7/29/2019 603010 Scalping Cheat Sheets
Trade on the 1 hour chart and look to pull 10 – 15 pips using a 1 : 1 risk to reward
ratio. (Actually, since the range is a bit larger during pre-news announcements than
off-hours trading you can try to scalp a few more pips…but don’t get greedy. )
If you want to trade on a shorter time-frame you can, but just remember that the
market needs time and room to move. And with 2 – 3 pip spreads being the norm,
you really need to pull more than 8-10 pips to make it worthwhile.

CHEAT SHEET #2
Breakout Scalping
Using breakouts to scalp the market is by far the most popular scalping method.
One reason is that it works, and the second is that it is the simplest.
When looking for breakouts to scalp, I’m only interested in the first hour the
different global bank sessions. This includes the:
As the different banks come online and start moving money, the odds of the
market moving and causing a sustained breakout go up.
And the more breakouts we get, the more opportunities we have to scalp some quick
pips!
Take a look at the chart below where I have identified the session opens and look to
see if you can find any breakouts:
10
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/603010-scalping-cheat-sheets 10/16
7/29/2019 603010 Scalping Cheat Sheets
As you can see, on this day this particular pair moved hard at the European and
New York session opens creating two very nice scalping opportunities. But
obviously before we can talk about how to scalp breakouts, we first need to cover
how we determine when a breakout has even occurred.
There are two methods I use to establish breakouts…one is more conservative (but
yields less trading opportunities) and one is MUCH more risky (but gives you A LOT
more trading opportunities).
The first method (which is the one I use) for establishing a breakout point is to look
at the high and low for the session so far and use that as our breakout point. In the
example above, you can clearly see that the pair broke below the previous low of
11
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/603010-scalping-cheat-sheets 11/16
7/29/2019 603010 Scalping Cheat Sheets
the session, so in this case we would go short and hope to scalp 10 – 15 pips out of
the market.
I like to trade this strategy on a 1 hour chart. You can trade it on a smaller time-
frame if you want, but in my experience the ranges get too tight and you wind up
getting stopped out a lot more than if you stick with the 1 hour chart.
I place my stop loss at 1 pip above the previous bar’s high if I’m shorting, and 1 pip
below the previous bar’s low if I’m going long OR 10 pips (whichever is smaller).
SIDE NOTE: You need a fairly tight stop-loss when scalping breakouts,
because the markets move quick on you (especially during session opens)
and you don’t want to be on the wrong side of a scalping trade when you’re
Looking back at our example screenshot above, you can see that the New York
session opened with a massive move to the high side. But for this strategy, we
would NOT take the trade because it did NOT break the highest high so far of
today's session.
If you wanted to take that trade, however, you would need to be trading the more
aggressive strategy…
This scalping strategy is traded the same way as “Breakout Strategy #1”, but instead
of using the previous high or low of the SESSION as our breakout point, we would
instead use the high or low of the PREVIOUS BAR.
As you might imagine, this is a much more aggressive scalping strategy, and I DO
NOT recommend trading it on a smaller time-frame than the 1 hour chart.

Final Thoughts…
The key to successfully scalping in the Forex market is to “stack the deck” in your
favor.
You've just seen five different strategies that I use to scalp, depending on my
objectives, what time of day I'm trading, or the type of situation or market
condition that exists.
Most traders have only one strategy, and try the same approach regardless of what
the markets are doing. This is the biggest mistake one can make.
Being flexible is key, and to truly unlock the code to the ever-changing markets you
need to look at the market, not as a single market, but as several different markets
with entirely different behaviors.
Once you learn to identify the specific time frames to focus on, and the different
market conditions that exist, you can simply pull out the appropriate strategy, plug
it in, and immediately be entirely more successful, and a FAR more accurate trader.
Now that you know the Forex trades as several independent markets you are much
further along your path to becoming a successful trader... but even I don't try to do
it on my own.
The “loop hole” I refer to is the next level of what you have just finished reading
about.
I have just recorded a very special video showing my Triad Trading Formula System
in action. Trust me, it takes everything you have just read to an entirely different
level! You can see what I mean by watching the video over at:
It uses a very special set of rules and proprietary indicators that I personally use
every day to take my trades. And the best part is anyone who trades with my Triad
system actually takes the EXACT same trades as I do.

• Where to set all of your stops
Once I finished the development of TRIAD and began using it, it literally took me
from a part time trading hobbyist to a full time trading professional.
If you want to catapult yourself to the very same level it took me well over 14 years
of backbreaking effort, thousands of hours of testing and far more painful losses
that I care to remember to get to...keep watching closely.
In the meantime, you can see how I scalp using my proprietary indicators by

Since you may not know who I am, I thought it would be appropriate to introduce
myself. My name is Jason Fielder, and I am a professional currency trader.
The fact that you haven’t heard of me is no surprise. I have never been comfortable in
the spotlight and have purposely remain “underground”.
I’m a trader, a system developer, a husband, and an amateur surfer (not necessarily in
that order as my wife likes to remind me).
I also enjoy teaching and helping other active traders get an edge. I know from
personal experience that most trading systems and advice are 100% crap, and it’s my
mission to provide something that actually works to independent traders just like me.
That’s why you’re reading this small part of my overall Trading Plan.
If you like what you’ve seen here and you want to learn more about what I trade and
how I trade, I invite you to check out my TRIAD TRADING FORMULA by going to:
