The strategy uses a color-coded candle rule to identify buy and sell signals, with a risk-reward ratio of 2:1 and a maximum of three trades per day. ### Key Points - **Introduction to the Scalping Model** [00:02] — The video responds to requests for a 1-minute scalping model, promising a setup with indicators for high-probability entries and a 2:1 risk-reward ratio. - **Chart Configuration** [01:21] — The chart is set to display bullish and bearish candles in white, with a 20-period exponential moving average as a reference. - **Operational Rules** [01:59] — Trades are executed until around 10:59 AM, with a maximum of three trades per day. A winning trade ends the day; a losing trade allows one more attempt. - **Buy Trigger Conditions** [02:27] — A buy is triggered when price is above the 9-period and 20-period moving averages, the candle is completely above the 20-period MA, and the stochastic oscillator is between 10 and 90. - **Sell Trigger Conditions** [03:05] — A sell is triggered when price is below the 9-period and 20-period moving averages, the candle is completely below the 20-period MA, and the stochastic oscillator is within the 10-90 range. - **Win-to-Loss Ratio** [03:36] — The model offers a 2:1 win-to-loss ratio, meaning two gains for every one loss, providing a significant advantage. - **Color Coding Rule** [03:49] — Candles suitable for buying are colored blue, and those suitable for selling are colored red, applied via a custom rule in the Profit platform. - **Applying the Color Rule** [04:04] — The rule code is provided in the first pinned comment. Users copy and paste it into the Profit strategies editor, name it 'Setup Scalp M1', and insert it into the chart. - **Entry Execution** [06:09] — Entries occur on a breakout of the triggering candle's high (for buys) or low (for sells). Orders are placed 10 points above/below the extreme, with stop loss at the candle's low/high and target at twice the risk. - **Trade Management** [07:36] — A winning trade ends the day; a losing trade allows one more trade. The strategy emphasizes discipline and following the plan to achieve objectives. - **Example of a Losing Trade** [08:31] — A red candle triggers a sell, but the price reverses, hitting a 190-point stop loss. This allows one more trade for the day. - **Example of a Winning Trade** [09:01] — A blue candle triggers a buy, with a stop loss of 350 points and a target of 700 points. The trade hits the target, resulting in a net profit for the day. - **Another Winning Trade Example** [10:12] — A blue candle triggers a buy, with a stop loss at the low and target at 280 points. The trade hits the target, ending the day profitably. - **Final Example and Conclusion** [11:12] — A breakout triggers a buy with a stop loss of 115 points and a target of 230 points, hitting the target. The video concludes with advice to follow the plan and avoid greed. ### Conclusion The video provides a complete scalping strategy for the 1-minute Mini Index chart, emphasizing a disciplined approach with a 2:1 risk-reward ratio and a maximum of three trades per day. The color-coded candle rule simplifies entry identification, and the strategy aims for consistent small profits while managing risk. ## Transcript using a fast-track scalping chart model. That's it , responding to requests, I receive many emails and comments here on the channel, just wanting to trade on a and many tests, I arrived at a model that I believe can be very helpful for trading 1- minute charts. However, the risk-reward ratio of two to one allows you to perform operations with a significant advantage and exactly what I'm going to show you in today's video: a chart setup with indicators that will allow you to identify entries at this level. I know you liked the topic, right? So what I'm asking you is to to receive alerts for every new video we post. And if you really like it, leave a like; it encourages our work and helps this content reach more people on YouTube. And it's very important Instagram, where we post daily information about our you want to learn more about how it works, there 's a link to our website in the video description below, where you can find out more . If you have any direct message on Instagram, or leave a going to share my screen and show you how to set up your chart and what metrics to use for this one-minute scalp trading model a look at how we configure and prepare the work tool in our chart for this operational model. First thing we're going to look at here, our graph has to be basic like this: Just go there and configure it so that both the bullish and bearish candles are white. We have here a moving average, which is the 20-period exponential moving average, that will be plotted here on the graph as a reference for us. The main settings, we'll have them within a coloring rule. First, I'm going to explain the rationale behind the model, and then we'll talk about this coloring rule that will allow us to visually identify the inputs. So let's go. rational. Here we have an operational model where trades will occur until around 10:59, but this varies greatly because we have an idea of ​​a maximum of three trades per day. If I have a profit, I close the trade; if I have a stop loss, I try one more trade. So basically two to three operations per day. A buy trigger is activated when the price is above the nine-period moving average, the price is above the 20-period moving average, the candle is completely above the is completely above the 20-period moving average, and finally, when the price is within the stochastic oscillator region, that is, between 10 and 90. Remember that below 10 I am oversold, so it's a difficult region to sell in. At 90 I am above in the overbought region. This mainly prevents us from buying at the top or selling at the bottom. For sale, the configuration is reversed. The price has to be below the average; the price has to be below the 20-period moving average, and the candle has to be completely below the 20-period moving average. And once again, the stochastic oscillator has to be within the once again, the stochastic oscillator has to be within the R.90 range. One really cool feature of this model is the win-to-loss ratio, where model is the win-to-loss ratio, where I have two gains for every one loss, rationale. Take a look, check it out, pause the video to take notes if you need anything, but that's basically it. Going back to the chart, we need to apply a color rule to these candles that will show me the buy and sell points. We will classify a candle as suitable for buying; it should be shown in blue, and suitable for selling; it should be shown in red. Just a reminder that I'm looking at the 1-minute timeframe here. I'll leave the rule for applying these colors in the first pinned comment. From there, you'll copy this rule and paste it into the editor, as I'm going to show you now. Here I am with a rule. It's in a notepad, but it will be in the comments. All you comments. All you need to do here is copy all this code and paste it into the rules editor. So I'm going to select all the code here, press Ctrl+C or copy it so that it copies the rule, and then I'm going to Here at Profit, we'll go to the strategies option at the top. He's going to open that strategies option at the top. He's going to open that menu. Let's create a new strategy here. I want a strategy that is a coloring strategy, a coloring rule. He's going to show me this spot here. Click OK to make it editable at this point. With the editing area visible to me here, I'm going to select the code that it automatically displays. Okay, let's it automatically displays. Okay, let's delete it, press Ctrl+V, and paste our strategy code. Then click on the floppy disk, it will ask you for click on the floppy disk, it will ask you for a name, Setup Scalp M1. The name is there, you can click save. Going back to the chart, we're going to right-click on one of the candles and insert the color rule that we just created. So, click here for more. In the search, we'll click here for more. In the search, we'll put the name we created there. Setup Scalp M1. He'll stay on this list. Simply select Simply select the infut value, insert it into the chart, and then click OK. Now that the colors have been applied to the chart, we're going to talk about the rationale behind our trading strategy: how to open buy and sell orders, and how to set the target and stop-loss for each trade. Entry into the moment we have a breakout of the candle that triggered the entry. So I observe here, I see that the blue candle is a candle that enabled the entry. I will only make a trade if its high is broken. Once that it's a buy signal. So I'm going to observe this first candle here, and see if it breaks out; if so, I have an entry point. Oh, it wasn't broken. I'm going to wait for a candle that shows a breakout. And I'll have that in this third candle here in the sequence. When I have an entry enabled here, I'll place my buy order 10 points above the high of the candle. And then, as he breaks through, I have an opening. My stop loss will be placed at the low point of the candle. You could put about 10 points below the minimum for CVAR, right? And my target up there , see, is twice the size of my risk, meaning I have a 310- risk, meaning I have a 310- point stop loss for a 620-point target. I make my move , we observe the movement, and hit my target. So, I opened a trade here around 9:10 in the morning and it hit my target around 9:50. You see, it's not that complicated, is it? I just need to follow the metrics here. So candle here. Following our reasoning here, there's nothing more we can do. Remember that a winning trade ends the day, while a losing trade gives you the option to make another trade, and whether that trade is winning or losing, you end the day. Well, just observing another day here, right? With the market opening, we day here, right? With the market opening, we await a valid trading signal. the indicators, a red candle is quite acceptable. This red candle here, if it breaks downwards, we have an entry point. It doesn't break down, it gives me another red one. If it breaks, I have an entry point. Otherwise, nothing will get done. Oh, he went upstairs, no operation for now, just to observe. Unbroken blue candle pointing upwards, no entry point either, just observe. Blue candle. So, if there's an opening there, we'll trade. I'll mark it here. Do not activate the input. Here comes another candle. I'll leave passing by, you see. It activates and stops me. Here, look. I caught you see. It activates and stops me. Here, look. I caught a stop. 190-point stop loss. If I have a stop loss, I am entitled to make one more trade, completing two trades in a day. Then he gave me a blue candle, a blue candle on the screen. So I have an opportunity to enter the buying process here from this point. He buying process here from this point. He triggered my entry, made a move, and then after a slightly long period, he came and hit my target here. This is a trade with a stop loss at 350 points and a target of 700 points. So we had a small stoppage at the beginning and here's a big game of 700 points. So, one losing trade, one winning trade, the day ended, and then that winning trade triggered the stop loss and left a pretty nice profit at this point. We're doing very well, another day here with white candles opening. We are waiting for the white candles opening. We are waiting for the first signal to proceed with the operation. Red candle. Red candle. If I see a breakout of this candle right below, we have an entry point. Do not break. Nothing to be done. Oh, it didn't activate. It continued above average. We're waiting for the activation candle. Here's a blue candle that could be an I have an entry point. The stop loss is at the lowest point here. V that he didn't activate the input came down. New blue candle here. Again, we place an order just above here, the stop at the low. Then he activates the entry, makes the move, goes there and hits the target at 140.0. Seriously, stop target 280 points with a trade on the day. Day ended here. Well, let's see how it goes, one more day here to wrap things up. Look at the opening day here to wrap things up. Look at the opening candles in white. candles in white. We are waiting for a signal. A if I see a breakout at the low here, I have an entry point. Nothing doing. Blue candle here. If I see a Blue candle here. If I see a breakout at its high here, I have Look, don't activate it. The candle did not break out. So, if the next candle breaks out, I just move the order to the following candle, right? Break up. We have an entrance, look. He activates the entrance, goes there, and knocks. That would be a activates the entrance, goes there, and knocks. That would be a stop loss of 115 points for a target of 230 points here. So, a favorable trade for the day is over too, okay? So, there's no need to insist, there's no need to keep performing multiple operations. Follow the management guidelines, follow the plan, and the objectives will definitely be achieved, okay? No greed, operating calmly, operating small, okay? To take a So it is. So, like I told you, look , it's a really cool operating model. I hope you find this useful; take a look, run your tests, apply it to other timeframes, make any adjustments you deem necessary, and in any way and if you can benefit from it .
