Episode notes
From Daily Pinbars To M1 Scalping
- Saul moved from daily pin-bar trading to M1 scalping because he couldn't sleep with large swing positions.
- Scalping suited his personality and allowed session-based trading with active management.
Win-Rate vs Risk-Reward Tradeoff
- Scalping often yields a high win rate but a lower risk-reward; swing trading yields higher R:R but lower win rate.
- Very few traders can sustain both a high win rate and high risk-reward long term.
Layered Entries And Active Management
- Start small and add into entries within a supply/demand zone rather than waiting for confirmation.
- Manage the grouped entries as one setup and actively scale in or out to improve overall profitability.
