The scalper's clock

Scalping

Seconds and minutes

Scalps live on 1-minute charts and below: in, capture a small move, out. No opinions, no hoping. Just execution reps at high frequency where spreads and fees decide survival.

Check yourself

The scalper's real enemy is…

  1. Missing moves
  2. Costs: spread and slippage eat thin margins correct
  3. Charts

When your target is 0.3%, a 0.1% spread is a third of your business model.
