Only skilled traders should go in for scalping. Not easy at all!

Yeah. Scalping requires good experience and knowledge. Beginners should rather stay away from this style as its risky too.

Scalping is good for those who knows to how take advantage of small price movements and have better skills.

It can bring great money, if you have a good understanding of scalping mechanism and understand its principles, I think many traders try to use it, but unfortunately it is not always effective.

Now it is in great demand among traders, because if the forecast is correct, it helps to increase profits by several times.
But you should do it thoughtfully, because in the same way you can lose everything at once.
So do not forget to check everything and work on a demo.

I don't think this strategy can be considered simple, especially for a beginner. It seems to me that it has too much dynamics, so there are often complex and exciting situations that require a quick reaction and ingenuity...

Yes you have spend months and years on a system that is catered to quick response but i found once you get the experience although risky can be very rewarding...in and out and done for the day

There is a saying that says 'You can try to scalp the forex market, but eventually it will scalp you.' Scalping seems fun when you're winning, but as soon as you start losing, it's not fun anymore. Most of the time traders will eat up most of their capital before they call the experiment a failure.

The best part of the forex strategy is money management –make sure every time you trade , you don’t risk more than 2-3% of you account otherwise you will break your account pretty soon. I learned that lesson from my own experience.

scalping is easy to make small gains but also easy to make massive losses. It is a game for fools IMHO

define easy. it's not same as other strategies you have to have some experience in the field, you know. saying it's a foilish game is not smart since i know people making A LOT of money. you jyst have to have think differently that's all
it's not easy. it's different. and you need to be ready for that different.

Indeed. Losses flow quickly in scalping so we need to be really attentive while scalping.

Unless you are skilled in that, it is not as easy as it sounds.

Was about to say this.

i wanted to try to be a scalper, but read a lot of contradictory things.
on the one hand there's possibility of quick money. but on the other the risks're very high.
as i understand when scalping, at least 10 orders in different currencies're opened immediately and they're closed at any market fluctuation. am i right?

then i'll need constantly sit at the laptop and monitor what's happening with the market. this is too hard for me. psychologically i couldn't stand it. so i'd like to buy a profitable advisor.

If you even know a little about the theory of what scalping is, then using it is quite easy.

sometimes scalping causes huge trouble but overall its really good and comfortable for the traders who above have low amounts.

I do scalping trading because I don't have the patience for long term trading, particulary when it goes against me. I'm more of a live in the present type of guy I look at the chart & if it's going down I short. It its going up I do a long. I'm in and out usially within an hour or so...

Scalping is not that difficult as people say it is.
