Scalping M5 uses SMA 20, scalping in question is looking for small points using the SMA20 indicator, why use SMA 20 because I think SMA 20 is most suitable in all timeframe conditions, we will open positions if the price cuts SMA 20 for the first time

The strategy of opening a position when the price first crosses the 20-day moving average (SMA) is a simple yet effective concept?as long as market conditions are favorable. The first cross is usually considered an early signal of a change in direction or renewed momentum. However, it's important to note that on smaller timeframes like the M5, these crosses can occur frequently, making them prone to false signals, especially during sideways market conditions or volatile periods.
