Scalper 2.0: Built for Quick F&O and Stock Trading

January 21, 2026 / 18:05 IST

Speed decides outcomes in F&O and stock trading. A delayed chart, an extra click, or a missed exit can turn a good order into a frustrating or potentially lost trade.

Sahi’s Scalper 2.0 - a massive upgrade from Scalper 1.0 - is built around this exact reality. It’s a purpose-built trading desk designed for those who operate in fast-moving markets and need clarity, control, and execution speed on a single screen.

And the best part is Sahi’s pricing - zero account opening charges, zero AMC, and zero brokerage for the first 30 days. After that, it’s just Rs 10 per order, which is nearly 50% lower than what most other brokers charge.

Scalper 2.0 focuses on reducing execution friction and improving decision flow for traders who scalp, trade intraday, or actively manage options positions - making it one of the high performance trading platforms.

This post will take a closer look at the new features in the Scalper upgrade and how they improve F&O and stock trading.

Why Retail Traders Need a Fast Trading Desk

F&O and short-term stock trading demand a different setup than positional or long-term investing. Traders are constantly switching between charts, strike prices, order windows, and positions.

In most platforms, this results in clutter, delays, and unnecessary mental load. Scalper 2.0 improves trading flow by removing friction, keeping essential trade data in the centre, and staying responsive through rapid market shifts.

What Makes Scalper 2.0 Unique

Scalper lets you execute trades straight from charts with one-click buy/sell, visual SL-TP, predetermined lot sizes, flexible Call and Put views, and custom trailing stop-loss control.

Charts in Scalper 2.0 are also 60% faster, with execution times measured in milliseconds. Faster charts mean clearer entries, better exits, and fewer delays when every second matters.

Other features include:

1.    Sahi Pulse: Your trades stay in sight

Sahi Pulse floats on your screen and keeps live trade information visible at all times. You don’t need to switch tabs or open position windows to check P&L, SL, or exits. This helps you stay focused on price action while managing trades without distraction.

2.    Dual chart view with synced Call and Put charts

Scalper 2.0 lets you view Call and Put charts side by side, fully synced in time and movement. This makes it easier to spot strengths and weaknesses between both sides.

For example, crosshairs and timeframes move together, so momentum, confirmation, and strike selection become instantly visible

For options traders, this results in faster decisions, cleaner entries, and more precise exits when needed.

3.    Trade directly from the charts

Scalper 2.0 lets you execute and manage positions straight from the charts, without any lag. It also has features like:

  • One-click Buy and Sell from the chart
  • Set Stop-Loss and Take-Profit in Market or Limit
  • Switch between Call and Put views easily
  • Predefined lot sizes for faster execution
  • Manage trailing stop-loss visually as price moves
  • Change strikes instantly from the chart.

4.    Custom trailing stop-loss that matches your style

Scalper 2.0 introduces a fully customisable trailing stop-loss. It lets you control the number of points by which you want your SL to trail: how aggressively it trails, and how closely it follows price.

In Sahi, you can customise these point intervals yourself, allowing the SL to trail by specific points for every LTP move, locking gains with precision.

5.    Option Chain inside Scalper

In the 2.0 version, the option chain is built directly into Scalper, so you don’t have to leave your trading screen. You can track strikes, OI changes, and prices while watching charts. This saves time and helps you respond faster to shifts in activity across strikes.

6.    Super Alerts that work in real-time

Super Alerts notify you the moment price levels, or candle conditions are met. They are designed for live markets, not delayed reactions. This helps you stay alert without constantly watching every chart, especially when tracking multiple stocks or option contracts at once.

7.    One-tap exit directly from the chart

Exits can be placed straight from the chart using Best Bid, Best Offer, LTP, or Mid-price. There’s no need to open separate order windows. This reduces reaction time during sharp moves and helps you close positions faster when momentum shifts suddenly.

8.    Smarter SL and TP placement

Scalper has always let traders manage stop-loss and take-profits from charts. With Scalper 2.0, that control goes a step further. You can now set and adjust SL and TP directly on the chart using limit prices. This allows smoother handling of multiple trades without leaving the chart view.

9.    Smart indicators built for options traders

Key Levels, OI Profile, and OI Support-Resistance are built directly into the charts. These indicators update smoothly with live price movement and don’t slow down the platform. They help you read structure and positioning without relying on external tools.

Final Thoughts

Scalper 2.0 represents a clear shift towards trader-first design. Faster charts, integrated smart indicators, dual chart view, and a cleaner interface work together to reduce execution friction.

Sahi’s prices are lower:

  • ₹0 brokerage for the first 30 days
  • ₹0 account maintenance charges
  • ₹10 per executed order on F&O, ₹10 or 0.05% (whichever is lower) on equity.

For F&O and stock traders, such a high performance trading platform turns ideas into executed trades. When markets move fast, having a trading desk that keeps pace can make all the difference.
