Each trader must determine the most appropriate Forex trading techniques for their trading style. There are a variety of trading techniques developed by various sorts of traders to assist you in making money in the market.

Day Trading:
Day trading is a process of trading currencies in one trading day. Day trading technique is used in most markets, but it is mostly used in Forex trading. This trading technique suggests that you open and close all trades in a single day.

Scalping
Scalping is a popular trading technique that focuses on minor market fluctuations. This method is used to open many trades to make tiny profits on each one.

Position Trading
Position trading is a long-term investment approach that focuses on fundamentals. Position trading is aimed at more patient traders with a background in finance and economics who want to profit from long-term market trends.

I would also go as far as saying traders need to match it to their personality and time availability. Some prefer scalping as its quick and can do many in a day others prefer to do position trading leaving one trade on for months

My favorite is scalping as I make money from small price changes. My favourite is scalping as I make money from small price changes. I keep a 120 pips target for a day and segregate trades underway. Sometimes 2 - 3 trades work well and other days you need to open 10 -15 trades too. It all depends upon the strategies we make and the capital deployed.

I would focus on planned targeted trading. This approach involves creating a trading plan, with the calculation of possible scenarios and the expected profit.
Of course, this approach is difficult to imagine in scalping, but it creates enough flexibility for mid-term trading, when your task is to fulfill the trading plan, regardless of the trade holding duration.

Good trading depends on some criterion like risk managing crafts, money managing crafts and some others. A cogent effort should be given to turn every day a profitable day and traders who are perseverant can only do that. To be a good trader, he or she must make sure maintaining all these criterion.

I personally prefer scalping and sometimes copy trading, since it is what works best for me.

Imo, the above mentioned ways of trading are the strategies that are used to trade. I scalp trades using the “buy low and sell high” technique. But the best part of forex trading is that you can trade either side of the market.

I agree with that i think you need to be pro active in your trading but i would say just have the rules follow them and keep journalling to make sure it still has an edge

One of the popular trading techniques is “Buy low, sell high.” Most traders buy currencies at low price with an aim of selling them at high price when the market trends upward.

I think copy trading is a good technique as well. I often use zulutrade to copy trades from seasoned traders.

The best technique is manual in my opinion. There are robots and copy trading but they are not long term profitable. You have to put the work in to see results in this industry and so many are not willing to do the work to make it succeed

This is actually a really interesting question. I find that many people tend to drift towards copy trading in the beginning, and then go for the other methods such as scalping, price action, etc. which is a foolish act.

I scalp in a 2 minutes or 5minutes time frame and use optimal leverage to enhance my profits.

Price action trading, range trading strategy, trend trading strategy, position trading, day trading, swing trading, scalping, carry trade strategy.

This is going to sound really obvious but 'Buy low, sell high' is the best technique. If you buy when the price low and everyone else is selling you will get a good entry price and can then profit when the price inevitably rises again

The advantage of scalping is that traders are able to make quick profits from small price changes that take place in the forex market. Whereas, swing and position trading are long term approaches that involve holding on to a trade and keeping it open for a longer duration. A trader can choose any technique and all of them are profitable if executed properly.

You have to factor in your lifestyle and the amount of time you can dedicate to trading as well. I like scalping, but I've been so busy with my kids lately that I've been doing more day trading and long term trading. Once they're all in school, I might switch back because I'll be able to do that full-time.

Traders choose their trading strategy after determining their trading style. Trading style can be determined by doing a self analysis research which includes your risk tolerance, preferring long or short term trades and determining the number of trades to be carried out in a day.
