When One Contract Was Enough | E-Mini NQ 1-Minute Scalping Trade

A quick and smooth E-Mini NQ scalp during the New York session on the 1-minute timeframe.

After a period of consolidation, the market started showing clear bearish momentum. We observed a strong downside move and waited for confirmation before entering 1 contract short. The initial stop loss was placed approximately 16 points above the entry.

Shortly after entry, NQ continued moving lower smoothly. A sudden pullback followed with two strong green candles pushing against the position, but the overall structure still suggested a minor retracement rather than a reversal.

As bearish momentum returned, the stop loss was adjusted and reduced to roughly 8 points of risk. The market then accelerated lower and quickly reached our target area, where we secured approximately 40 points.

The market continued lower after our exit, but our target had already been achieved, so there are absolutely no regrets. The goal was to execute the plan and take profits at the predetermined level.

The entire trade lasted only about 5–6 minutes, although the edited video has been shortened to around 4 minutes for easier viewing.
