[ Trade Setup ]

There are two primary approaches for scalping using this indicator:

1. Candle-Based Scalping:

a. Bullish Signal: When you observe a bullish candle highlighted in blue (by default), you can consider entering a long position at the close of this candle. It’s advisable to wait for the candle to close before taking action. For a more aggressive scalp, you might take profits based on your scalp target after a few subsequent candles. If the price remains stagnant or moves unfavorably in the next few candles, you can exit with a small loss. Alternatively, if you have a higher risk tolerance, you may hold the position even if the price initially declines within a set percentage.

b. Bearish Signal: For a bearish candle highlighted in yellow, you can enter a short trade at the close of the candle. Similar to the bullish setup, you have the option to exit after a few candles if the price doesn’t move as expected or hold the position with a higher risk tolerance if the price goes up initially.

2. Zone-Based Scalping:

Entering Zones: Monitor the price as it enters a defined support or resistance zone. If you are open to higher risk, you can enter a trade immediately upon the price entering the zone. For a more cautious approach with a smaller stop loss, wait for the price to reach a retracement level within the zone before initiating your trade. This approach allows for a more precise entry but may result in missing out on trades if the price reverses before hitting the retracement level. Conversely, entering at the zone’s boundary offers the potential for early trade capture but comes with a higher stop loss risk.

Adjust these strategies based on your risk tolerance and trading preferences to optimize your scalping opportunities.
