This strategy was decoded from a public trading video but did not clear Strategy Decoder's codifiability bar: the extraction could not pin the rules down precisely enough to be turned into a reviewable specification. It is kept here as a reference post-mortem rather than as a strategy you can trade or backtest.

Why this strategy was archived

Scalping is the shortest-horizon style in discretionary and systematic trading alike: many small trades, tight risk per position, and a heavy dependence on execution quality and session timing. This entry decodes Alex Ruiz's "Curso Completo de Scalping (Estrategia de 15 minutos/día)", a Spanish-language course built around a compact, time-boxed daily routine rather than an all-day screen session — a sensible framing for traders who cannot sit in front of the market for hours.

**Why this entry is archived.** Our extraction scored this video below the codifiability bar. It recognized the scalping framing and a session parameter inferred from the title, but the rest of the structure a machine needs never resolved: no indicator set, no instrument or market scope, and no entry, stop or target conditions specified precisely enough to code without guesswork. The methodology also read as mixed — discretionary judgement interleaved with mechanical elements — which is common in course-format teaching and difficult to translate into a faithful rule set. This is a limitation of what our extractor could pin down, not a verdict on the course itself.

**What it still offers.** As course material, the time-boxed premise is the interesting part: deciding in advance when you trade, and stopping when the window closes, is a risk control most retail scalping content ignores entirely. Spanish-speaking traders looking for a structured introduction to the style will find a full curriculum here rather than a single setup. If what you need is a rule set you can backtest, see the Scalping concept hub and the active catalog, where entries with fully extracted entry and exit logic are listed.

Frequently asked questions

Why is this scalping strategy archived?

Our extraction scored it below the codifiability bar. The video's scalping framing was identified, but no indicators, markets, or precise entry and exit conditions could be extracted — there is nothing complete enough to code or backtest faithfully.

Does "15 minutes a day" refer to a 15-minute chart timeframe?

That is unresolved. Our extractor inferred the timeframe label from the video title, which describes a 15-minute daily routine rather than confirming a chart interval. That ambiguity is part of why the entry did not meet the bar.

Is the course still worth watching?

Yes, as educational material — particularly for Spanish-speaking traders who want a structured introduction to scalping and a time-boxed session routine instead of an open-ended screen day.

Where can I find codifiable scalping strategies on Strategy Decoder?
