I was reviewing the IZSS course and one of the quiz questions referred to trend trading and swing trading on the same chart at the same time. Are you able to place a trend trade and subsequent scalp(swing) trades at same time? Every time I tried to add positions my positions were averaged together on Ninja.
Yes they would be averaged out, but you can do it. Here is a basic example Lets say you got in an IZSS trend trade and your trade and your trade was up 20ticks profit. At that point you got a swing entry and took it. Your two trades would then average out as far as the “entry point”. Then, you exit the swing trade once it is up 10 ticks. You actually get a payout on that trade of 20 ticks and not just 10. Due to the fact of the further back average entry. So yes, technially your first trend trade would not be up as much as it would have been on its own, but you did already make the money and pull it out on the swing trade. So it all works out in the end.
