Scalping Trading



Short Term Day Trading ď‚— In short-term day trading the main focus on all the entrances

into and exits from, the market needs to take place on the same day. ď‚— In fact, often day trades can take just a few hours to enter an

end, with the hope that each trade nets a small profit, and that those small profits add up.


ď‚— Day trading right now seems to be the trendy thing for the

new traders, but one thing that Forex traders beginning should know is day trading is a pretty advanced Forex trading strategy, and should not be jumped into by newbies.


Day Trading Entry and Exit ď‚— Day trading requires a quick entry and exit and the ability to

use technical analysis and apply it directly to trades efficiently. ď‚— The strategy used by day traders isn't to find one long-term

trade that does well but to find several smaller trades that make a few pips here and a few pips there. ď‚— This strategy is to have enough wins over losses that they add

up to a solid profit for the trader.


ď‚— If you have ten small gains and three small losses from day

trading, then the hope is that those combined gains will give you a much solid profit on the day. ď‚— That's how day trading works, making it a far more aggressive

form of Forex trading than Forex swing trading or long-term trading.


Scalping Trading ď‚— Scalping is an example of day trading in the Forex markets. ď‚— Traders who employ scalping trading methods are traders

who buy into a position intending to see quick movement and profit off a short transaction, often within a minute or a couple of minutes of making their entry into the market.


ď‚— True scalping involves when a trader opens and closes a

position in literally minutes or sometimes even less than a minute.


ď‚— This quick in and out is hoping that after a quick movement

and show of profit, and immediate exit will in theory help minimize risk while collecting smaller profits bit by bit. ď‚— This is an advanced type of trading, that shouldn't be tried by

pure beginners into the Forex market, though if you get a good system and some experience, this could become an option down the line.


ď‚— If you are just getting started, learn about long-term trades

first, which tend to be at least the little more stable.
