Scalping is a type of day trading style. As we all know, Forex is the most liquid and the most volatile market, hence while many traders are bearing through minor price fluctuations to get a gain of some 100-200 pips per their trade, there is a whole army of Forex scalpers trying to squeeze every possible opportunity out of these small fluctuations in the foreign exchange quotes.

Scalping is quite a popular style for many traders, as it creates a lot of opportunities within the same day. It's popularity is largely down to the fact that the chances of getting an entry signal are rather high. During the scalping process a trader usually does not expect to gain more than 10 pips and lose more than 7 pips per trade, including the spread.

Usually scalping is done with substantially high volumes, which is why many of these traders are not following the common 2% risk management rule, but are trading much higher volumes during their FX scalping sessions.

Now we have an understanding of the fundamentals of scalping, let's take a closer look at its practical application. In general, most traders scalp currency pairs using a time frame between 1-15 minutes, yet the 15 minute time frame doesn't tend to be as popular. Both 1 minute and 5 minute scalping timeframes are the most common.

That's why for new traders they should not use scalping techniques. This scalping requires quick
and reactive mind to move prices. I also lost when using scalping for the first time until I learned to be patient to wait for the price indicator signal.

any circumstances when it's sideways movement. The advantage of scalping is that
we can earn profits in a short time and if we can trade with scalping well then we can get consistent profits in a short time.
