When we are doing scalping based we tend to understand the market timings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigxy Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 Scalpers, in my opinion, only have been trading on smaller timeframes getting in and out of the market however they can make more during the volatility of markets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RolexFX Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 As far as I know, scalpers open a large number of positions in a single day and always employ the shortest time period. And since I trade with FP Markets, it is an advantage because of their faster execution and lower spreads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radex78 Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 Scalping could be a profitable trading strategy if we understand how. This will get more benefit with choosing low spread broker like FXOpen, for scalping trading we can choose EURUSD, USDJPY, and GBPUSD, and working in a small timeframe, like M5, even we can use M1 to get detailed prices for the short term.

Upoctin Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 A scalper is an individual or entity engaged in the practice of scalping, a trading strategy focused on making small, quick profits from the frequent buying and selling of financial instruments like stocks, currencies, or cryptocurrencies. Scalpers aim to capitalize on short-term price fluctuations, exploiting minor market inefficiencies. They typically execute a large number of trades in a single day, holding positions for a very brief period, often just seconds or minutes. This strategy requires keen market analysis, rapid decision-making, and a thorough understanding of technical indicators. Scalpers leverage technology, such as algorithmic trading, to execute trades swiftly and efficiently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigxy Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 Each account type has different properties similar to the traders who have unique style and characteristics from each other, so i guess its upto us to compare the account types and choosing the right one to carry out our trades in the long run.

Yeah, I consider it better alternative to swing trading because it's fast-pacing nature of scalping allows you to get more practice in a shorter period of time. Intuition in chart reading comes from practice and experience hence this style of trading is preferable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aspblamlvgkoec Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 Scalping should not only be done wisely, but also with great care. By the way, you can benefit more with gold status in Amarkets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radex78 Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 Scalping trading is a short-term strategy, choosing a broker with tight spreads really supports scalping traders in collecting profits from this technique. Indeed, not all traders are suitable for this strategy because perhaps when facing a situation of consecutive losses it can disturb the trader's emotions, therefore scalping must be done with a cool mind, disciplined money management and risk management. Not all brokers allow scalping, but at FXOpen it is allowed and sometimes I also work with this strategy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a few brokers which allows news trading as well as scalping. In my opinion scalpers usually take benefits when the markets are highly volatile which sometimes backfire as well for the new traders.

bigxy Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 It's really hard recommending brokers these days since there are many new brokers joining the industry while many also winding up at the same time. It will be good if we take some time researching few handful of reputed brokers to further finalize the right broker. In my opinion, brokers like hfm, xm, exness, lmfx etc can be a few to shortlist while looking for a reputed broker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
