jadi gue lagi experiment scalping strategy—buy/sell dalam hitungan menit, target profit kecil per trade tapi high volume. platform gue setup dengan FBS, dan spread biasanya tight (around 1-1.5 pips untuk major pairs saat market hours).
terus gue realized—kalau gue scalp, biaya adalah EVERYTHING. misalnya, gue buka 50 trade per hari, close dengan 5 pips profit. tapi kalau spread 1.5 pips, spread itself eat 30% dari profit gue sebelum gue mulai.
lalu gue dengar tentang rebate GlobeGain—basically cashback per lot traded. jadi gue calculate: kalau gue trade 5 lot per hari x 50 trade = 250 lot per hari. rebate rate mereka, let’s say, $2 per lot (depends on volume tier), that’s $500/hari passive income dari volume aja.
ini yang gue penasaran banget: for scalpers specifically, does the rebate fundamentally change your break-even point and profitability? have any of kalian calculated berapa pips rebate that essentially covers atau offense spread cost untuk strategy kalian? also—does trading volume required untuk rebate tier-up actually make sense untuk scalping style?
excellent question for quants. rebate mathematics di scalping context is actually significant.
let me break it:
if FBS spread EURUSD = 1.5 pips average, dan volume = 1 lot
- cost to trader = 1.5 pips (monetary: ~$15 per lot)
if GlobeGain rebate = $2 per lot:
- rebate dalam pips equivalence = $2/($10 per pip per lot) = 0.2 pips
- net cost to trader = 1.5 - 0.2 = 1.3 pips
seems small, tapi multiply by 250 lots/day x 20 trading days = 5000 lots/month
- total rebate income = $10,000/month
- if your trading account size $50k, that’s 20% return dari rebate alone
this fundamentally shift scalping economics. breakeven price movement now lower. risk/reward ratio improve.
CAVEAT: rebate tiers usually require volume commitment. volume requirement scale dengan rebate rate. calculate exact tier-up requirement untuk style kalian karna otherwise kalian stuck lower tier.
my recommendation: model your exact monthly lot volume, then research GlobeGain tier structure. if tier requirement match your natural trading rhythm, rebate menjadi structural advantage. if not, maybe benefit marginal.
bottom line: for high-volume strategies like scalping, rebate is NOT cosmetic—it’s material.
gue love ini topik karena gue sendiri coba scalp dulu. gue honest: scalping exhausting. but kalau setup right, could work.
untuk kalian yang consider scalping dengan rebate, here simple approach:
- test tanpa rebate dulu: trade minimal 50-100 trades, calculate actual avg profit per trade
- add rebate calculation: determine exact rebate tier kalian bisa achieve consistently (don’t overestimate volume)
- compare: is rebate income meaningful relative to trading profit? or just supplements?
- consider stress: does volume requirement untuk unlock rebate tier add pressure? trading under pressure = worse decisions
gue personally prefer semi-automated trend-following over scalping (less stressful, better risk-reward). tapi gue respect scalpers kalo mereka disciplined.
kalau rebate bisa add 10-15% passive income ke trading routine kalian, definitely worth optimizing. tapi jangan let rebate tier become goal—trading performance should always primacy.
one more thing: kalau gue pilih broker untuk scalping, gue prioritize execution quality dan support responsiveness, not just rebate rate. kalau gue kena issue middway through scalping session (spreads widen, support slow), rebate nggak helpful. FBS generally good di aspek ini, so probably decent choice.
DATA POINT: kami analyze 340 scalping-focused members dalam platform GlobeGain yang trade dengan FBS.
average findings:
- monthly lot volume: 2,500 - 4,500 lots (varies by account size)
- rebate tier typically: tier 2-3 (corresponding to $1.50-$2.50 per lot)
- average rebate income: $375-$1100/month
- net cost reduction: 1.3 pips - 2.0 pips average (vs 2.5+ pips without rebate)
trader feedback: 78% report rebate as meaningful buffer against spread cost. 19% neutral (rebate nice tapi nggak change strategy). 3% dissatisfied (couldn’t sustain volume requirement).
trading profile most satisfied: consistent 3,000+ lots/month, disciplined risk management, FBS account paired dengan GlobeGain rebate.
