> Source: [The Easiest Scalping Strategy I Apply Daily (Practical Explanation)](https://youtube.com/watch?v=-9ShxoVnI9A)

## Summary

This video presents a scalping strategy based on the opening range of the first 15-minute candle in a trading session, applied across various markets and timeframes. The presenter explains the step-by-step process, including identifying the range, waiting for a breakout, and entering trades using demand/supply zones and fair value gaps with confirmation from candlestick patterns. A historical test of five trades across different sessions is shown to illustrate the strategy's application and results.

### Key Points

- **Core Strategy Overview** [00:32] — The strategy uses the first 15-minute candle of a session to define a range (opening range). The highest and lowest prices of this candle set the boundaries. The trader waits for a strong breakout outside this range, then enters on a retest.
- **Step 1: Define the Range** [01:42] — On the M15 timeframe, focus on the first 15-minute candle. Identify its high and low to establish the upper and lower limits of the opening range.
- **Step 2: Wait for Breakout** [01:54] — Switch to the M5 timeframe and wait for a strong, large candle that breaks out and closes with clear momentum outside the range boundaries. This indicates a likely continuation in that direction.
- **Entry with Fair Value Gap** [02:50] — After a strong breakout, a fair value gap (FVG) may form, representing a price imbalance. The trader waits for the price to retest this gap, but not immediately—confirmation is needed.
- **Confirmation with Bullish Engulfing** [03:31] — A bullish engulfing pattern (or bearish for sells) is used as a momentum signal. This pattern occurs when a candle completely engulfs the previous one, indicating likely continuation.
- **Trade Management** [04:02] — Take partial profits (20-30%) at resistance levels, move stop-loss to entry point, and let the rest run to the target.
- **Example 1: Nasdaq** [05:01] — Trade at 1:30 AM ET on Nasdaq. Range defined, breakout up, retest of demand zone, bullish engulfing entry. Target 455 points, risk-reward 1:5.
- **Example 2: EUR/USD** [07:22] — Trade at 2:00 AM, 1-hour timeframe. False breakout, supply zone, bearish engulfing. Target 247 pips, stop loss 99 pips.
- **Example 3: EUR/CHF** [10:04] — Trade at 8:00 AM, M5. Breakout, demand zone, but no clear engulfing pattern. Entered anyway, lost 159 pips due to narrow stop loss.
- **Example 4: USUG** [11:31] — Trade at 3:00 AM, London session. Demand level on hourly, strong wick, heavy buy. Target 1159 points, stop loss 541 points.
- **Example 5: Swiss Franc** [13:35] — Trade during Asian session. Supply zone, FVG, bearish engulfing. Target 540 pips, stop loss 180 pips.
- **Results and Conclusion** [14:48] — Four out of five trades successful, total over 22 pips (likely a typo, but transcript says 'over 22 pips'). Strategy is applied in VIP room and a trading bot is available.

### Conclusion

The strategy is a systematic approach to scalping that relies on market structure, demand/supply zones, and confirmation patterns. While historical results are positive, the presenter emphasizes that no strategy wins every trade and that risk management is crucial.

So, if you feel like you're out of the market or missing out on opportunities, let me explain a high-success scalping strategy I use to effectively manage my accounts. I do

just one candle. I identify the highest and lowest prices of that candle. Then, I wait for a defensive price movement outside this range, creating a price divergence. At that point, I enter my trade. If the price moves in the expected direction, I achieve my
target. You may have seen other videos explaining this strategy before, often linking it to 9:30 AM Eastern Time. However, our community includes members from all over the strategy using the first candle. 15 minutes in any trading session. This
applies to Forex, futures, gold, indices, and all other markets. I will explain this strategy fully afterward. I will then present a historical test of a full trading day with one trade per session to illustrate the strategy's mechanism from an educational perspective. Before we begin,
five random comments will be chosen to receive free VIP access. All I ask of you is a little information about your favorite animal or pet, especially since my dog, Hani, is going through a difficult health situation, and I greatly appreciate any moral support. Now, let me explain the scalping strategy that I apply
daily, step by step, starting with the first step. In the first step, we are on the M15 timeframe. We first step, we are on the M15 timeframe. We focus on the 15-minute candle. We notice that the price drops to form the candle's low, then rises to form the candle's high, and then the candle closes.
This gives us the upper and lower limits of the range, which is known as the opening range. The same thing appears on the chart. You can see here the candle moving up, then can see here the candle moving up, then down, then closing, which determines for us  The highest and lowest levels of
the range are identified. The second step involves monitoring the second step involves monitoring the M5 timeframe, so we move to the five- minute timeframe. As you can see, we can follow the movement of several candles at this stage. We simply wait, but what exactly are we waiting for?
We are specifically waiting for the trend on the M5 timeframe. We look for a strong, large candle that breaks out and closes with clear momentum outside the upper or lower boundary of our range. As the
price movement develops, you can observe the beginnings of strong defensive price movements: one, beginnings of strong defensive price movements: one, two, three, or seven consecutive green candles. These are large, strong candles that show a clear price shift. When the breakout and close outside the upper range occurs in a
strong and aggressive manner, it indicates that the market is likely to continue in this direction. At this stage, there are several ways to enter a trade, and personally, I prefer to rely on demand zones and fair value gaps, which is what we will focus on in our explanation today.
As you can see, this candle closed at this level, which led to the formation of a fair value gap.  This area represents a price imbalance in the market. Let me zoom in to clarify the picture more precisely. This candle closed here, and that candle closed here. Therefore, the area
enclosed within this frame is a fair value gap, which represents a price zone that has not yet been retested. This occurs when we witness a strong and aggressive price movement that leads to a clear price shift. At this point, entering a trade becomes possible, and we want to enter the
newly formed fair value gap, but not immediately. It is important first to ensure effective. To achieve this, we look for a specific candlestick pattern, which is the
bullish engulfing pattern. This pattern forms when this candle completely engulfs the previous candle, meaning it is larger than it. This pattern is a momentum signal indicating the likelihood of the price continuing in the same direction. At this stage, I am
ready to enter the trade and let it react with the market movement. At this specific level, I consider taking a small profit. Profits, given that it's a resistance level, for example, I might close 20% to 30% of the trade. Then I usually move the stop-loss order to the
entry point and let the trade continue moving until it eventually reaches this upper level and achieves the specified price target. In the following examples, I will show you where to set profit targets and stop- loss orders using five different patterns and trades.
In each example, I will present a new additional confirmation factor that I use to increase the success rate when applying this use to increase the success rate when applying this strategy daily. focus on the overall trend direction. We observed the price defending upwards, followed by a correction. I did
n't notice any clear, hidden correction until we reached this level. Here, the correction appears. Then the price continues to rise again, and we get three red candles, which is another correction. The price then rises again, and finally, it reaches the target. In this trade,
I relied solely on the basic market structure, where we were witnessing successive breaks in the price structure with new values ​​being recorded each time, making entry into the trade possible.  It's easy and clear, so if you really want to master this strategy, I advise you to watch all
five examples. Now let's begin the practical explanation. The scalping strategy is used daily, starting with the first trade, which is on the Nasdaq at 1:30 AM Eastern Time. This asset is one of the most traded instruments, and this time is considered one of the most popular
times to apply this strategy. Starting from this point, we notice that the candle moves upwards and then downwards. Then, at a certain moment, the 15-minute candle closes, which determines the upper and lower limits of the range. Next, we move to the second step, where I go to the
M5 timeframe. At this stage, I don't take any action; I just wait for the price to break out of the range strongly and clearly, as we saw a moment ago. This leads to a price shift within the market. Here, I was monitoring this demand zone, which is the red candle that
preceded the strong bullish move. Of course, it would also have been possible to rely on the fair value gap present here, but only if a demand level was available.  Clear and straightforward, I prefer using this approach. The demand zone is simply a strong upward surge consisting of several large, consecutive green candles.
I have several videos that explain this concept in detail. Then, I wait for the price to return to this level. Indeed, we observe that the price gradually and calmly returns to the specified demand zone. After that, I don't enter the trade immediately at this level. I don't want to
enter and then see the price continue to fall, leading to an early exit from the trade. Therefore, I need clear confirmation to enter. Here, I wait for the appearance of the appropriate candlestick pattern. What pattern am I looking for? It's the bullish engulfing pattern. This
pattern simply indicates the presence of positive momentum within the market, and at this specific point, I enter the trade. I set the profit target at approximately this upper level and the stop loss at this lower level, with a risk-to- reward ratio of approximately 1:5. The
stop loss was placed directly below the range, while the profit target depended on the continuation of the upward trend, with the expectation of a new breakout in the market structure at this zone. As an additional confirmation factor in this trade, we can note the presence of a previous resistance level at this
position, where...  The price recently broke through this level and then retested it at this area, after which a confirmation candlestick pattern appeared. This made it an ideal entry point for the trade. After executing the trade, we observed that the price began to move upwards gradually and steadily.
At this specific level, I would consider taking a small profit, then moving the stop-loss to the entry point and letting the trade continue to react to the market movement. Ultimately, the price reached the target price of 455 points. After the first trade, the result of the
historical test was 455 points. For the second trade in the historical test, we would start at 2:00 AM, before the opening of the European or London market. We would trade the EUR/USD pair. This also works on Forex. This would be a sell trade,
and we would start on the 1-hour timeframe. We observed that the price was moving downwards, then broke a significant support level, which subsequently turned into resistance. At this specific level, a false breakout occurred. After this breakout, we observed that the price respected the level several times, then pushed down sharply and clearly.
respected the level several times, then pushed down sharply and clearly. resistance level on the hourly timeframe, and from here we move to the M5 timeframe. We notice the presence of three candles that formed the upper limit of the range and the lower limit of the range. At this
stage, we start waiting for a strong movement that causes a significant shift. Did we get this shift directly? Not yet. Some may think that this level here represents a good supply area with a small amount of shift, but in reality, the movement was relatively weak and did not reach the
required level. We were looking for a more aggressive and forceful move, four consecutive red candles. Here, we observe a clear break in the market structure. There are no
clear fair value gaps, but we have a supply zone at this point. Although it's not the strongest supply zone, we confirm it by obtaining a clear entry signal. When the price returns to this level, we wait for a bearish reaction before entering the trade.
Although the circle here might be a little large, the idea is clear: this candle has completely engulfed the previous candle, giving us a momentum signal confirming a sell entry. With a profit target set at approximately this level,
sell entry. With a profit target set at approximately this level, aiming for around 247 pips, and a stop loss above this level, if I lose, I will have lost only 99 pips, which provides an excellent risk-to-reward ratio. Here, the price touched the resistance level on the hourly timeframe and
then plummeted sharply, forming a clear supply zone. We entered the trade, and the engulfing pattern materialized.  The sell order reinforced the downward momentum with a good price shift, ultimately achieving the secret target at ultimately achieving the secret target at around 247 pips.
The stop-loss for this trade was placed directly above the supply zone. I could have placed it higher, but I preferred to rely on the supply zone itself, especially with the strong bearish engulfing candlestick pattern. The supply zone itself, especially with the strong bearish engulfing candlestick pattern. The
slightly bolder approach, although it could have been placed at this level, as it was the most recent support level after the execution of the two trades. The results look very positive, as we are approaching a total exceeding 700 pips, and we still have three more trades before the
third one. We will use the time at 8:00 AM, the start of the US session, for the EUR/CHF pair. Let's begin on the M5 timeframe. We observe the upper and lower limits of the range. We see that the price briefly broke above the upper limit of the range, then moved
below it for a short period before returning and breaking out strongly and aggressively from the upper limit of the range, forming a  This clear price shift, this upward surge, created a new demand level supported by several fair value gaps, making it a relatively strong level. At the same time, we can observe a
At the same time, we can observe a clear support level forming below. When the price returned to this level, no clear bullish engulfing pattern appeared. Nevertheless, I decided to enter with portfolio size, targeting approximately 258 pips as the upper target and 159 pips as the
lower risk limit. While monitoring this trade, you can see that the price initially moved against us before surging upwards very strongly. Therefore, we lost about 159 pips. This was a very clear support level and perfectly suited for what is known as liquidity clearing, which is exactly what happened before the
price rose. It is clear that I was using a narrow stop-loss here. If I had placed the stop-loss directly below this level, I could have stayed in the trade and targeted higher levels as well, and thus the trade would have been better. However, I chose a slightly small size here, and that is
all that cost me the loss. Thus, our total balance is 543 pips, which is considered a day  Excellent despite the loss in this trade. It is important to understand that no trading strategy will win in every single trade. Let's move on to the next one. Only two trades remain. The fourth trade is at
3:00 AM, the beginning of the London session. We are currently trading USUG on the M5 timeframe. You can see that there is a demand level on the hourly timeframe. While following the trade, we have the upper limit of the range and the lower limit of the range, and this forms our trading range.  Then
observe what happened.  The price surged strongly upwards from the hourly demand level, which in turn created a new demand level on the M5 timeframe. This is what we will use to enter the trade. However, the price hasn't broken its range yet; instead, it has reversed. We also observe that it has respected this level as well. So,
this demand level has been respected, and another demand level has been formed here as a result of the significant shift demand level has been formed here as a result of the significant shift and surge.
several gaps. There's a gap here, a large gap here, and another gap here. Therefore, this can be considered a very strong and good demand level. Now we are waiting for the price to return to this level, but a bullish engulfing pattern hasn't appeared yet. What do I do
in this situation? In this example, I decide to enter the trade. We have a strong wick here, indicating the strength of the demand zone. The zone has held more than once, and the recent price action is the most important.
once, and the recent price action is the most important. Therefore, I enter a heavy buy at this level, Therefore, I enter a heavy buy at this level, targeting approximately 1159 points. If the opposite happens, targeting approximately 1159 points. If the opposite happens, the loss will be around 541 points. The
stop-loss is placed below the demand level, below the middle of the range, while the profit target is set.  The highest expectation is for the continuation of the upward trend, with the market structure expected to break out here and there. With the
with the market structure expected to break out here and there. With the price movement continuing, we practically execute this trade and see that the movement is progressing well at this level. I might consider taking a portion of the profit, as I usually do, then move the stop-loss to the break-even point and let the rest of the trade continue
until it reaches the full target of the trade at around 1159 points. Thus, this around 1159 points. Thus, this major historical test has given us an additional 1159 points. We only have one trade left, don't miss it. Okay, for the last trade, we'll save the best for last.
We will trade the Swiss Franc during the Asian session. As you can see here, we have defined the trading range: the upper limit of the range and the lower limit of the range. There, we noticed that the price touched the resistance level on the hourly timeframe, so we are definitely looking for sell trades from
this level. What I need now is a price movement, two candles, three candles. And suddenly, we got a strong outward push with a large red candle. Initially, I was monitoring this level from a supply perspective, but after seeing this large downward push  I did
n't want to miss the entry opportunity, so I noticed a fair value gap at this level. The price had just touched this level, and what I was looking for next was an ecological engulfing pattern. I placed a tight stop loss of just a few pips, while the take-
profit target was at this level because the price had previously bounced off it. I
entered a sell trade targeting around 540 pips, and in case of loss, it would only be around 180 pips. After monitoring the trade, we noticed that we maintained our levels. The price respected the supply zone, and in the end, the target was fully achieved. After this historical test, I achieved four
this historical test, I achieved four successful trades out of five, with a total of over 22 pips. Of course, historical testing is easier than actual trading, but this strategy is applied in my VIP trading room, and you can check it out. I also programmed a
trading bot that uses this exact strategy, and you can try it out. Don't forget to hit the like button, leave a comment, and watch this video and this other one. I'll be back and this other one. I'll be back next week. All my love.
