I think in scalping strategy, we must have money management table in which there is a lot that accordance with the capital and our profit target. we can use a averaging transaction but the maximum is only 4 positions averaging if the initial decision was wrong. such as with $100 of capital we can use 0.1 of lot size in first trade and we can compound the lot size suits by our equity or balance. maybe will be better if we have money management and compounding table, usually the format is excell

function of Excel itself whether to count our points every day. to make our account in accordance with good management. so as to achieve the target that is expected. and 4 positions that you say is take 4 open every day in accordance with what we expect. What do you mean that?

and the obvious use of the lot shall be in accordance equity, because the use of lots in scalping still need to be noticed. like just a better use of small lots is safe, with an open position many times. than using a large lot but dangerous to our capital,

me too, i prefer used short time than long term because i just have a little funds on my balance and also i really like short term, i can get the profit with fast and as long as i do with careful there is nothing problem with long term or short term
the conclusion is it depends to the trader what strategies will they choose

yes short term trading is more preferable than long term for people who want to make profits in short time and want forex money as a little income or a side income.long term trading is for people who want to make forex as full time job and earn profits in big amounts.

I also think like that. long term trading requires a lot of capital because they will hold up to hundreds of pips if you have the wrong position. whereas if we are short term trader such as scalping using small capital is not a problem

well yes you right money is required but do not you think you would also required big amount for scalping because you can lose in many short positions and in this case you were always better to have some long term positions and earn as much in longer time period but same sort of result can be achieved but ways are different.

I'm just like you, I am more inclined to play scalping in forex trading. because the capital that I have too little, in my opinion is a bold play longterm traders who have large capital. capital so that they can withstand the movement of prices. although I made a little but I feel happy.
