Is this the return of tick scalping in the ES?!?!?!

For so many years I traded ES and NQ off tick charts and eyes being dragged primarily looking at them, and I kept losing money, over trading, entering trade too early, exit winning trade too early, until one day I came to recognize that was like looking through MICROSCOPE; it was a turning point once started trading off minute chart, focusing on a few swings of the day, firing a few shots of the day. Taking the eyes off the microscope makes a big difference. Only align and take a final glimpse at the telescope - tick chart at trigger time.

I think a tick chart would do a whole "Scanners" thing on me -- with the top of my head coming right off......
 
This is a great thread. Does scalping 1 tick only involve the DOM? Are there other momentum type of chart thingys to learn? What is the historical volatility ratio and how is it used? The trick is to get that moment of time to hit the bid or ask for a tick.

I have recently fired up TT and have the VAP on the DOM. Is it as easy to hit the heavy side with an entry during "generous tick zones" or is there more to it? Genererous tick zones...lol ATR >50.

ok I will hook up some renko on another chart screen and see if I can find an indicator that will give me a high winrate with 1-tick scalping. I found a DOM that shows me an indicatator level in a column...yeah that's right..on the DOM itself. I am learning so don't laugh at all my novice discoveries.
