Scalping
No crowd, no scalp
Scalping needs constant two-way flow. Low-volume names = wide spreads, jumpy prints, no exit door. Require heavy relative volume before a symbol earns scalp status.
Check yourself
Scalping a quiet, thin stock fails because…
- It's illegal
- You can't exit at fair prices without flow correct
- Charts break
Liquidity is the exit door. Scalpers walk through it hundreds of times a day. It must be wide open.
