Scalping can be profitable for some traders due to its focus on exploiting small price movements. However, it requires a solid strategy, quick decision-making, and a good understanding of market conditions. Successful scalping often depends on tight spreads, low latency, and efficient execution, so choose a broker that supports these requirements. For example, appropriate brokers for scalping are Hotforex or Tickmill or similar which offer accounts specifically for scalping.

Effective money management in trading involves setting a risk per trade that aligns with your overall capital and using stop-loss orders to limit potential losses. Diversify your investments, and avoid risking too much of your capital on a single trade to protect against market volatility.

How to find the most profitable Expert Advisor?
boltushkin replied to Jack Spear's topic in Forex Expert Advisors
Finding the most profitable Expert Advisor involves researching historical performance, user reviews, and ensuring it aligns with your trading strategy. Keep an eye out for transparency in the strategy and risk management, and consider running it on a demo account first to assess real-world results. -
Hotforex hosts monthly demo contests with a respectable prize pool, but it's important to note that the competition is quite intense. Nevertheless, these contests offer a perfect risk-free opportunity to gain from the currency markets.

Demo account is a perfect tool for learning how to trade without taking any risk. But you also have to be aware that there are differences between a demo and a real account. Especially in terms of trading psychology - you don't experience the same emotions as on a real account. That's not to say there's anything wrong with trading on a demo account, you just have to be careful when switching over to a real account.

Learning forex has been considerably simpler in recent years, with traders able to watch videos on YouTube, participate in forex forums, and benefit from instruction given by brokers such as Hotforex or Tickmill. Furthermore, many brokers provide a significant deposit bonus.
-
After learning at demo trading, using a cent account for beginners is the right first step for novice traders. After being consistent enough on a cent account, we can switch to Hotforex micro account, which provides many benefits such as low spreads and generous deposit bonuses

If you avoid risk you lose opportunity to earn, because the profit is essentially reward from the market for that you share future uncertainty with them. However I prefer to take low risk and pursue moderate profit goals trading with Hotforex.
-
I trade with Hotforex, which provides access to an impressive array of 6 or 7 distinct asset classes, each containing a multitude of instruments. In my trading approach, I seek out less mainstream assets, aiming to carve out my own unique niche. My belief is that the presence of higher spreads in these less popular assets signifies a reduced level of competition, ultimately offering advantageous conditions for retail traders like myself.
-
You're absolutely right; this approach appears to be quite popular among novice traders. Nevertheless, it's essential to note that professional traders also recognize the value of scalping strategies. This is because numerous market inefficiencies emerge and vanish within short timeframes. Therefore, there is a compelling, logical basis for pursuing success in scalping. In fact, my preferred strategy at Hotforex is centered around capturing short-term market movements, often unfolding in a matter of seconds.

Hello, which broker offers good trading conditions?
boltushkin replied to Nona_3's topic in Forex General Discussion
There are several brokers that provide good trading conditions for traders. I trade with Hotforex, an FCA-regulated broker that is suitable for scalping because of its tight spreads, which start at 0.1 pips in other major pairs and 0.0 pips in EURUSD. -
I use various brokers to get better understanding how I can differentiate between good brokers and useless but my favourite one is definitely Hotforex because it has really great choice of trading instruments - from currency pairs to bonds.
-
With scalping you get outcome quickly, no need to wait, so you can practice a lot. I also started from scalping with Hotforex and still sometimes trade this style when I see an opportunity, like high-volatile market after news.
-
Been sticking to 1:100 leverage for the last two years with Hotforex, sometimes there are opportunities when I feel I should take higher risk than usual, this is when high leverage becomes useful. Though it doesn't happen too often maybe 1-2 times a month.
-
I trade equity and currency CFDs with Hotforex basically they offer really wide range of assets, from major to exotic ones.
-
Scalping is easy for beginners to understand where a trader can open and close traders quickly, and it is also a quick way to earn profits. Still, you need to be careful while scalping because it could be pretty complicated to predict its direction.
-
I agree that scalping is simple, but in theory in practice still difficult. How to make a good scalping strategy, how to enter market at the right time and so on. Since people love talks about fast profit, or receiving small profit that repeated over and over again until you received a lot of money from it so it is why scalping is popular.

Want to know how brokers make profit from your loss ?
boltushkin replied to abdulla1's topic in Forex Newbies
Sometimes they make the market for you, but I try to trade with a brokers like Hotforex which act as a pure mediator. -
I use 1:100 leverage with Hotforex but I also try to maintain good amount of equity to reduce leverage to save up on borrowing costs. This is especially important if you hold positions overnight.

Do you use any bots for auto trading? can you share smth?
boltushkin replied to Katie_90's topic in Forex General Discussion
I use FAP turbo and PAMM trading at Hotforex you can find this bot on trading forums but make sure you first tried it on demo. Also do not hesitate to try it setting different parameters and using different assets and even asset classes like forex, metals, commodities, indices, etc. -
Major forex indicators include Moving Averages, Relative Strength Index (RSI), MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence), Stochastic Oscillator, Bollinger Bands, and Fibonacci retracement levels. These indicators help traders analyze market trends, momentum, and potential entry/exit points. However I use only RSI and ATR trading with Hotforex.

Do you know to choose the trading account type
boltushkin replied to adamsmiths's topic in Forex Trading Styles
Well, I use Hotforex premium account with raw spreads (i.e. without markup) plus commission. I don't think there are some substantially better options in the market for retail clients. -
Eliminating risk entirely in trading, or any financial endeavor, is virtually impossible. Risk is inherent in all investments, and the financial markets are no exception. However, you can manage and minimize risk through various strategies, such as diversification, proper risk management techniques (like setting stop-loss orders), thorough research, and continuous learning. The goal is not to eliminate risk but to reduce it to a level that you are comfortable with and can handle within your trading plan.
-
Yeah scalping is quite popular among novice traders because it is simple and trade outcome becomes known quite fast. Also it helps to gain experience faster since you have more practice. I started from scalping with Hotforex and still use some strategies with fast returns.
-
Good choice. I would also recommend to try Hotforex as they are cheaper at least a quick glance at spreads reveals decent difference
