Scalping Setups That Print Money

📉 Most traders lose on small timeframes… these 3 setups flip the odds in your favor.

👉 Each setup includes entry, stop loss, profit target, and tips for using it with leverage.

✅ Setup #1: VWAP Bounce (Trend Continuation)

Perfect for: Trending markets (especially BTC/ETH)

Chart: 1-min or 3-min + VWAP + EMA20/EMA50

📌 Strategy:

Price is trending above VWAP

It pulls back and taps VWAP

You enter long on the bounce

Stop = just below VWAP

Target = next resistance or +0.5–1% move

Confirmation: Green engulfing candle or volume spike at VWAP = entry signal

💡 Leverage Tip: Use 5x–7x — low risk due to tight stop

🟥 Setup #2: EMA Reversal Trap (Fakeout Reclaim)

Perfect for: Choppy markets, reversals after fake breakdowns

📌 Strategy:

Price breaks below EMA50, looks like it’s dumping

No strong follow-through (volume dries up)

Price reclaims EMA20 + bullish engulfing

You enter long on reclaim

Stop = just under the fakeout wick

Target = high of range or next resistance

🎯 This catches trapped shorts & rides the squeeze.

💡 Leverage Tip: Use 4x–6x — works great for “liquidation hunts” setups

⚡ Setup #3: Range Breakout + Retest

Perfect for: Scalping momentum when market explodes

📌 Strategy:

Identify tight range (use box or lines: 3+ touches = valid)

Wait for breakout above range with volume

Wait for price to retest the broken level

Enter on bounce from retest (support confirmation)

Stop = just under breakout level

TP = measure the height of the range (project upward)

🧠 This is the most reliable breakout method — avoid FOMO-chasing green candles.

💡 Leverage Tip: You can go 6x–10x if confirmation is strong and stop is tight.

⚠️ Golden Rule of Scalping

Tight Stop + Fast TP = Scalper's Edge

Never let a losing scalp become a swing trade. Ever.
