Hi Jaykae,
there is never easy money. Nowhere, but some only see wood and overlook the forest. I tested jigsaw within the 2 week test phase and I liked it very much, but at the time I was still an absolute beginner and in my opinion jigsaw is not for beginners. I've been working with sc for 8 months now and have tested quite a lot. sc can do almost anything. my question was not "HOW"? my question is what other traders use for scalping. what indicators etc ... I have now arrived there saying that less is more. much more! all I need is a tick chart that is tailored to the respective market, a correctly set MACD and .... patience. that's it! I don't need anyone to tell me what to do here. and if I do, I explicitly ask for it. again: my question is what others use when scalping. which indicators? 1 minute chart? etc.... like everyone, i am looking for advantages. maybe there is something I don't know yet. I am just asking.

I'm currently exploring the use of the footprint (numbers bars in SC) on a 4.00 range and 1.75 range (I'm trading ES/MES) and 200 tick with custom oscillator in scalping if that is what you're after.

Trying to identify what 'I believe' is absorption and/or passive/active buying/selling, imbalances and regular/hidden divergences in the extremely short term and looking for 1-2 points... perhaps more depending on context which I derive from the principles of Rob Smiths Strat method.

DISCLAIMER: I'm not profitable so take what you want from all that.

Just as a note and to prevent any confusion .... Futures do not have market makers as stocks do.

This is basically what I meant.

Thank you for the comments.

Can you help me scalp?
Which indicators etc do you use for scalping?

Do you see the difference in these two questions?
LOL

Don't use indicators if you're scalping. Use the DOM, time and sales, and if you like, a footprint chart. Cheers.
