Trading Strategies

The Five-Minute Chart

Every five-minute scalping strategy is sold as an entry. This paper draws one properly — the session, the level, the trigger, the stop — and then shows the part the video always skips: at that frequency the spread is a third of your target, one slow fill undoes three good trades, and the arithmetic of costs decides the outcome before the setup does. Eleven annotated charts, and an honest account of who this timeframe suits.
