Basically, there is no fixed answer of your 1st question! I think, traders should follow their own trend. Like, if they are good at scalping, then they should apply scalping.

Scalping is risky only to the limit you allow it to be.
As any other strategy.

Sometimes I got maximal result by using EA but I never depend on this. I always try to depend on my trading knowledge that I have acquired by passing a long time with great patience.

Scalping are good if you have good tools and a good broker.
Which unlikely we are going to get until you have a good amount.

After that scalping require alot of self control.


I prefer over scalping a good intraday trade.
You control more your risk.

The final lesson scalpers must learn is probably the most important, risk management. The decision on how to manage risk can have a great impact on the bottom line of your account than deciding where your entry orders should go or even what time frame to trade on.

I am a scalp and always have to depend on this short time trading approach, but it causes a great risk sometimes. Have anyone a great idea how can I minimize my risk when scalping?

We the traders who are particularly scalpers have to choose the brokers which for all time make sure lowest trading spreads which is very supportive to make profit with certainly by using scalping policy that brings profit in a short time.

I am not a scalper but till now I consider the trading spread as my main feature of trading; since high trading spreads kill my profit and trading balance.

The Hidden Dangers of Scalping in Forex. Scalping is a trading method in which the chart technician opens several very short-term trades with the aim of coming away with small gains each time. Scalpers, if they use a stop loss, typically set it to at least twice the amount of that they want to make in profit.

trading is risky but scalping is the riskiest of them all. A scalper can lose all their money in a single day. Better to trade long term

Each style of trading is risky, but with scalp you have every moment you can see your profit or loss.

Nope. Scalper just take small profits so scalper does not gain much from single trade.
The risk is completelly different story not so related to trading style aka scalping but to risk mgmt.
