What’s the best risk reward ratio for the scalpers?

Spend your initial time in learning and strategy development so you can trade in real account with a proven strategy. When a trader has the chance of copying others, he never tries to learn the market. Copying others is never a permanent solution for traders.

Scalpers often aim for high-frequency, small-profit trades. An R:R of 1:1 or slightly above is common, as the focus is on quick, incremental gains. However, it's essential for scalpers to prioritize a high win rate to offset transaction costs effectively

Scalpers often aim for a risk-reward ratio of around 1:1 or 1:2. This means they target gains equal to or twice their risk per trade. Scalping involves making numerous trades, so maintaining a favorable risk-reward ratio helps ensure overall profitability despite the high frequency of trades.

For scalpers, maintaining a low risk per trade is crucial due to the high trade frequency. A 1% risk per trade is ideal, with a maximum of 2% to avoid significant drawdowns. A balanced RRR, like 1:1.5 or 1:2, ensures steady growth while managing losses effectively.

I agree with your perspective. A 1% risk-to-reward ratio is ideal for consistent growth and minimizing exposure, especially when scalping with multiple entry points. Keeping the risk under 2% helps preserve capital, allowing more room to recover from losses and reducing the impact of negative streaks.
