Scalping
Scalping is short term trading and the trader stays in a trade for a very short period of time, sometimes only a few minutes.
The aim is to trade frequently and capture smaller number of pips (5 to 10 per trade). This is essentially lower commitment trading and the hope is to make sustainable profits by not exposing too much of your trading account.
Scalpers will also close all trades before the work day ends so that their accounts aren’t exposed to interest.
Scalpers perform technical analysis and will look at very small time frames when it comes to chart analysis.
