short term forex trading is always better since then you can get in and out of the trade real fast and can monitor for any abnormality that happens during the trade, in long term trade sometimes you get stuck on the wrong side of the trend

one night stands are better than marriage, i use 15 min or 1 hour chart, get in and out of the trades real fast between 5 to 30 minutes i am out of the trade, then plan a new one, keeping a daily chart is missing a lot of action and entering into high risk trades on daily charts, coz a trend change is known on 15 min chart first.

same with me, i like short-term trading. because i can't see my position floating till 1 week or more than....
my type is day trader. after closing all position daily, i can sleep soundly...
aapki stratgy mujhe thik lagi
lekin hsort term me bhi aapko sl aur tp ka use zarur karna chhaiye aur agar koi bahut acha rate milta hai to aap long term ke liye bhi deal khol sakte ho
forex market me long term aur short term dono tarike se acha pasia kamaya ja sakta hai

correct trading psychology for too long will make us into this mess and very berbahanya when we are trading so very important for us to control the duration of trading. Overtrading also not good for our health because we will continue to think of market

All ways of trading are good. But i prefer short-term trading specially scalping. The reason why is follow this type of trading is that it makes me to asleep me without any tension. I do not hold my positions over the night.
But some people do long term trade for big profits. It is there own style.

how much success have you got in short term and scalping. I am not too sure if you still be trading after a year or after few months so are you good enough to survive for longer with scalping. this is the question but in long term yes you can survive for many years. as in my 4 years or so I have not much margin calls. so i have survived because of long term trading.

Long term trading and short term trading , it depends on the market conditions and your own condition ,if you get profit during a short time , you should set your trade close . If you are getting too much loss , you should keep your trade open for a long term in order to save your investment . So i never thought about that. I give time to my trades and never partitioned my trades with time as a factor.

I agree with you... But I do short time daily based trading and I too do not get margin calls often. I do not prefer to go long term like week long or moth long calls as I do not have confident on my trading strategies to keep my position opened for long time. As per my strategy I do hit target within day...

market condition ke alawa ye baat tarder pe bhi depend karti hai
kayi ytardres me patience nahi hota jis wajah se wo short term trading hi karte hai
jabki kayi traders roz market ko time nahi de pate to wo log long term tarding me bharosa rakhte hai..har tarder ki apni zarurat hoti hai

I also prefer short term because long term trades need so much capital and also we need to have some good patience which i don't have
aniket

Thats because they use some high lots because they have some good capital, Capital maters a lot in trading if you have more funds then you can increase the lot and get more profits. For me short term is best.

I always target long term trading but my emotions make me to close running trade which i planned for long term, so it becomes short term trading, One should have lot of patience to go for long term.
That is true for me also, most of the time my orders will be with floating negative profit, and when they turn in to positive i tend to close them with the fear of again turning in to negative side and result in very low profit.

long term is actually called a definite signal and safe, but sometimes we feel this is a very long time, we are impatient in waiting, we want a quick profit. but without a suitable base. should we improve our system to better results.

ya you right patience are very essential for the long term trading....widout patience trading is risky. so we have to control on our emotion and go ahead.....
For the long term tradin we need lots of experience and patience. Money management is also very essential here.If all this skill we have then we can do long term trading.
short term trade is good coz we can sit there enjoy some pips and then take off but in long term trade we need to have a lot more attention on fundamentals and market news and also long term trade requeires some strategy to pull good hand some amount of profit from it.
long term trading gives us big profit if we keep the patience and use good strategies. patience is very essential herefor long term trading.
bilkul sahi kaha aapne. par ek muskil he . iske liye jyada balance chahiye aur proper analysis chahiye. ku ki agar trend ulta par jaye to uge loss ho sakta he. isliye jo proper trend samajhta he usse long trading karne me asani hoga.
ya this is very correct we must the big balance for trading long term.....and we get more profit in long term i think....if we have experience and patience...

Yes long term trading goes by keeping positions for weeks to months and it requires good knowledge of fundamental analysis. Whereas short term trading, like scalping involves of technical analysis. Based on the strategy we need to choose type of trading and keeping it open again purely based on strategies...

Even when using the short term trading we have to remain focused on the long term trends in the markets. I have been trading using the H1 charts and the trends but to tell you the truth it is only the Long term trading that is the most profitable trading option provided you have the required margins for doing so.

I like to trade in short term..because I am a scalper... yet it is the most profitable way but it is the most riskiest way too... and you have to be so fast to trade in short term... but long term trading is a peace of mind... you will have plenty of time to think and analyze the market and execute your trade at the perfect position... And it can saves you most of the time... but you need big capital to trade on long term.. because with low capital you cant make big money... But I like short term trading because it suits my personality...

Short term trading does makes a good intraday profits but this profit may make your hungry making more and more which may results in psycological imbalance and may make a big loss, instead look for long term sure profits that would be better.

Short term trading makes profit quickly but the profits also leave with us short time, so it is better to adapt long term trading. But i feel full time traders who has enough time to do trading can make the most out of short term trading.

system of short-term or so-called scalping is a good system and profits in the long fast. because we make a profit in the short run time. for management to use a good management system. with 10-20 points profit. I feel pretty.

There is short time trade and there is long time trade like day trading , swing trading . Also what others have mentioned like scalping , it is the technique of trading to perform transactions for short period of time.

if you can do it with discipline I think is good for you because then you do not really get the market pressure for days because of floating minus

means that most of us want to make a profit more quickly, because that's why the market is a lot that you select a short-term trading because of the opportunity to make a profit in the short term is also large

but if we know the appropriate confirmation of an indicator I think. it is possible. Scalping is used when the market moves sideway. and this condition is not moving fast. and it was very profitable. long term is also good. but that advantage for long-term.

long term and short term depends on time frame of tradin style. usually long term trade means 4 hour and more than 4 hour time frame. and short term time frame means 1 minute to 1 hour time frame. scalperer use short term trading style while positioner or swinger use long term time

I think short term trading is much better than long term because in long term we don't have clear idea of any pair. But in short term we take our profit or cut our loss and take a side.
The economical situations of the world economy is so quickly changing that long term trading is much more dangerous than short term.

I agree with you, I also like short term trading because price of pairs is fluctuating and coming up and down so we should get some profit of this volatility and short term trading is best for this type of market conditions. Long term trading need a lot of patience that is not available with me.

A good calculation. TP is greater than SL, that's what most traders.
so that the end result of the transaction could still profit.
but it is not advisable to close the position manually, because it means you will reduce the opportunity for prices to reach the TP
furiya
2011-12-25, 03:52 PM
4 hours of time for trading, in my opinion is quite a long time.
I also am learning to be shorter in the front of the chart, but it is very difficult.
because when the position is open, then the feeling of being worried, and always wanted to observe the price.
furiya
2011-12-25, 04:12 PM
indeed tempting to get a very large profit quickly.
we should be able to control emotions in order to profit can be greater than loss.
we should treat profit and loss the same position in terms of cut position.

i do not like to open position for long term, i have no big margin to hold floating minus...so i take scalping or short time and i think this is easy and simple to do, no need much time to get profit and also with just a little money, we can start to get profit...
happy trading...and keep profit
furiya
2011-12-25, 05:45 PM
i agree with you and i choose short term as my strategies because with this i can get profit with safe
no need longer time to wait for profit and of course it is so simple and easy to predict...
but we have to be careful for this strategies when we think that we need to double our volume to get big profit...we have to know what we do and the market condition
furiya
2011-12-25, 06:13 PM
yes it is, we just have to find a suitable and profitable method and strategies, and if we got it make it simple and start to get profit, that's all
because the target all of traders are profit and cash out the money or withdraw it
furiya
2011-12-25, 06:16 PM
me too, sosmsetimes i used scalping, intra day and also long term, and all is depend to the condition and what should i do to face it...?but i really like scalping and i maximize it with follow the trend so when i make a mistake with scalping i let the floating minus and my strategy change be intra day or long term...but this way i have to calculate for it before i let floating minus, because i do not want to get MC
and all this time, my profit is bigger than losing
jadhav
2011-12-25, 06:23 PM
so when you got profit every day and you make withdraw...hmmm good idea, i made withdraw once a week and sometimes i lost my profit too..so i do not made withdraw...alright...i will take my profit every day...this is very good idea
jadhav
2011-12-25, 06:35 PM
you are right, but i think large margin is very needed by this strategies and how if the trader only have a little funds for it?i used scalping, intra day and also long term and i used them depended to the condition...
i hope that we get profit with consistent...good luck my friend
furiya
2011-12-25, 06:53 PM
you are right, no matters what's strategies we use for scalping, intra day or long term , as long as we can get profit as target so we can achieve our purpose and the important thing how we make it consistent,,,that's the problem
furiya
2011-12-25, 06:57 PM
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

Yes one should decide on his own what is best for him. We should choose the long term or short term trading we need to do depending on our time available for trading , capital required for it etc.
I am quite happy with my long term trading as it is tension free and keeps my mind quite calm for long time though the profit is less.

I trhink you need to have more funds because short funds you can lose and after that you have to re start again but just wait for the time when you have good enough funds for long term so this is where you can secure your money by doing risk free long term trading this is the best way

Yes long term trading is far more safe as we select the instrument according to fundamntals and it works as an investment for long term giving good appreciation, as we have very short capital we can do short term trading for some time to increase our capital and then sit back to take advantage of long term preice appreciation, would not that be wise?

success matters in the end and yes for long term success long term is good but when it come to short term success and you are in for short term then you do not have much time but if you really want to be in as a trader for long time then long term profit can give you long term profit.

I think longterm trader is a trader who has had a good psychology, so in any circumstances he would remain calm, and will not change strategy that is being run despite going through a floating minus
yes if you are good enough trader that you can be patient than long term is best for you because there will be not a quick return but a guaranteed success after some time maybe after a week or after a month or even some people can wait for year to see a great outcome so forex can be easy in long term.

I think short term trade hi better hein. It is because we will not be risking lots of our capital then. We can easily close our trade when we have profit and even in loss, we will not lose huge amount. Though profits are better in long term trading, I think it is better to trade in short term basis first to be familiar with the trade.

The long-term investors believe that investing in the long term will get a consistent profit. Short-term investments or daily may be very appealing to today,
investors / traders make decisions for the long term is trading today and hold the position until the next day or even 10 years later, where they must have a purpose / goal wise. Investors / traders usually have long-term specific goals, for example, to educate their children or to prepare for a better future. And investment options are so numerous, from forex, index and commodities.
While the investor / trader short term may be more interested in the excitement that occurs when a trade - to buy / sell every day - and tend not to have committed to targets within 5 or 10 years.
But outside of those two things, the important thing is ourself must determine what categories of behavior that fits with our style.
Thanks ...

yeah..that's true it must depend on person to person that which type of trading behavior fits he or she most.. because as you told cumil lots of people invest in long-term for their plans of future like needs returns for theirs kids high studies or some deposit after their retirement so that they will live happily life after their retirement....And those trader will have other job too..they are not just depend on forex market only..while short-term trader are those who generally earn money for their living beings.. such type of trader some daily profit..because forex is like job for them and most of such trader not have other work..just depend on forex only.

short term trade is good coz we can sit there enjoy some pips and then take off but in long term trade we need to have a lot more attention on fundamentals and market news and also long term trade requeires some strategy to pull good hand some amount of profit from it.

not necessarily short term trading is that scary buddy coz in short term trade you need to keep focus on the trend and also incoming news updates, you can even gain with short term trade yes but not how much you can on a long term trade but you can benefit

I think you should be long term in forex business, you should gain a little but consistent, use good money management..
if you are short term maybe you need to master the psychology is better because you may be playing a short distance and quick.

how much success have you got in short term and scalping. I am not too sure if you still be trading after a year or after few months so are you good enough to survive for longer with scalping. this is the question but in long term yes you can survive for many years. as in my 4 years or so I have not much margin calls. so i have survived because of long term trading.
I agree with you... But I do short time daily based trading and I too do not get margin calls often. I do not prefer to go long term like week long or moth long calls as I do not have confident on my trading strategies to keep my position opened for long time. As per my strategy I do hit target within day...
i always doing short trade because my investment amount is small.in short time trade there is more chance to win.in long trade the time is taking too and needs lot of patience.but in short time trading my investment money will be in high risk.i believe my analysis.

with a small capital if we play long for us to lose besar.namun in small trade all that different. little capital can be turned into a big capital when we play scalping, because scalping quick way to make profit. whereas longterm take a long time to develop our small capital.
agar tu aap ma sabar jiada ha tu aur aapki investment b jiada ha tu phr long trading karni chahiye iss ma jiada faida ha aur agar sabar aur investment kam han tu phr short time he jiada thaik ha.

Yeah....thats the big advantage of short term trading....so since i joined forex i prefer short term trading ..like scalping......besides long term forex trading has advantage on the basis of big profit but neeeds more knowledge nd experience
most of newbies scalping se apni trading start karte hai kyu ki knowledge na hone ki wajah se woh log jyadatar short term trading choose karte hai..aur newbies ko time by time apni trading style aur strategy change karte rehna chahiye jisse jyada anubhav ka fayda ho

I prefer short term trading. It enables you to hit your targets faster. Winning trade has a good psychological effect on forex trader, it builds his confidence to take more trades based on his strategy. When you take short term terms, and you win them, you are more confident in your trading skills and abilities.

Thats because they use some high lots because they have some good capital, Capital maters a lot in trading if you have more funds then you can increase the lot and get more profits. For me short term is best
it is great to listen to someone who really can detect what exactly he needs & why in Forex
also you must know how to manage your capital well with no greed
because long term trading can cause harm to the balance if the lot volume was large

Not necessarily that one bad trade in short term can finish everything. If we manage our capital properly then our account will not be subjected to margin call. Without proper money management one bad trade can finish not only short term trade but also long term trade. Short or long term trades do not have any bearing whether we are gonna be successful or not.

I always target long term trading but my emotions make me to close running trade which i planned for long term, so it becomes short term trading, One should have lot of patience to go for long term.
That is true for me also, most of the time my orders will be with floating negative profit, and when they turn in to positive i tend to close them with the fear of again turning in to negative side and result in very low profit.
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.
no even forex will be suitable for long term also.If we trade for long time and execute perfectly,profit will be high.And trading currencies is easier than trading commodities like gold i feel.

when ever any new trader come in forex trading then he choose short term trading like scalping.
in my view short term trading is little bit hard for newbie because it need a hug experience. newbie first start their trading long term. with the help of long term trading experience they are able to do good scalping trading also.
i prefer short term trading only.Because i hate to hold the trade for long terms like 1week or 1month.Maybe only organizations will trade like that.
Almost the individual traders will do short term tradings only.Maybe very few individual traders wil do long term.

Yes you are right. People do not have to go with short term trading for most of the times but they have to do long term trading also. Because if the economic condition of the currency is weak or good from this we decide trend and keep our position for long term. I think in long term we will get more return than short term.

On the contrary, it is safer to trade short term because, you are sure of hitting your target before the day runs out. Long term trades simply means that your target profit might get fulfilled in two days or more. In such situations, if there is a sudden trend change after your trade has run profitably for a while, you will lose of the attained profits and end up closing your trade at a loss.

long term trading ke liye bhi aapko equity ki zarurat padegi..kyunki agar ap long term trading kar rahe hai aur small lot se trade kar raeh ho to apko bahut zada wait karne ke baad zara sa profit hoga jiska koi fayda nahi hoga..long term trading karne walo ke liye acha khasa paisa hona chahiye kyunki agar aap kisi deal ko kafi lambe samay ke baat close karoge to usse zada profit hi expect karoge aur bada lot trade karne ke liye badi equity bhi chahiye

I think short term trading is much better than long term because in long term we don't have clear idea of any pair. But in short term we take our profit or cut our loss and take a side.
The economical situations of the world economy is so quickly changing that long term trading is much more dangerous than short term.
I agree with you, I also like short term trading because price of pairs is fluctuating and coming up and down so we should get some profit of this volatility and short term trading is best for this type of market conditions. Long term trading need a lot of patience that is not available with me.

Long and short-term trading, each has advantages. If the long-term trading, the trader does not need long in front of the chart. Having set a target profit, usually in the hundreds of pips, the trader can leave the computer for other tasks. While short-term trading, they sit for hours facing chart. Create a target in the range of 5-20 pips. But, sometimes short-term traders can earn higher profits than the long-term traders.
aapne ekdum thik kaha...short term trading aur long term trading dono ke advantages bhi hote hai aur disadvantages bhi hote hai
short term trading pe fayda ye hota hai ki aapko daily ke daily paisa milta raehga to apka interest bana rahega aur nuksan ye hota hai ki aapko roz ache se analyse karna padta hai
long term trading ka fayda ye hota hai ki aapko zada mehnat nahi karni padti ..bas ek bar trade khol ke rakh dena hota hai aur fir ache time pe close karna hota hai jabki nuksan ye hota hai ki apko profit ke liye bahut wait karna pad jata hai

Scalpers should like to remain attached with short term trends. Because they need only a few pips to get their desired profit. But long term traders are different in their trading manner. Usually they like to open their positions from a good position and continue it with the longer term trend of the market.
yes it is, we just have to find a suitable and profitable method and strategies, and if we got it make it simple and start to get profit, that's all
because the target all of traders are profit and cash out the money or withdraw it

I prefer long time forex trading because in long terms you don't have to sit in front of the terminal watching each and every move of the pair and then you can make good profits from long time trading then short term. One great risk is that you have to place your stop loss at a fairly large margin to let price breath within that and if unluckily you SL got hit then it would be huge loss as well.

the conclusion is it depends to the trader what strategies will they choose
I trhink you need to have more funds because short funds you can lose and after that you have to re start again but just wait for the time when you have good enough funds for long term so this is where you can secure your money by doing risk free long term trading this is the best way

In my view if any one have a good scalping trading strategy then he make more profit comparing to long term trading.

ya its good idea to withdraw profit every day because if we dont withdraw then there are chances of lossing that profit also.but keeping profit is also benificial because it will increase you investment and help you to trade with larger lot size

I like long term trading as it suits to my trading style and time availability. Though both the methods are profitable one should choose which one best to his trading style and the time and capital they have to invest her.
4 hours of time for trading, in my opinion is quite a long time.
I also am learning to be shorter in the front of the chart, but it is very difficult.
because when the position is open, then the feeling of being worried, and always wanted to observe the price.
indeed tempting to get a very large profit quickly.
we should be able to control emotions in order to profit can be greater than loss.
we should treat profit and loss the same position in terms of cut position.
A good calculation. TP is greater than SL, that's what most traders.
so that the end result of the transaction could still profit.
but it is not advisable to close the position manually, because it means you will reduce the opportunity for prices to reach the TP.

My patience is not good enough for me to do a long term trading in forex, therefore i always aim for short term.
But, short term trading is always risky, and requires stop loss skill, it is important.
u r right..i also prefer scalping but i usually take less time for chart and i mostly depended on the indiacators and usually trade on seeing them ....and scalping is proved good for my trading ..

if you trade on long term you will have to use smal leverage or small lot size for trading and wait you result for long time bit if you use short term you will see the result always and use the big lot size.
mohit
2012-01-24, 11:31 PM
yes if you are good enough trader that you can be patient than long term is best for you because there will be not a quick return but a guaranteed success after some time maybe after a week or after a month or even some people can wait for year to see a great outcome so forex can be easy in long term.
i think for long term trading you will require perfect analysis of the trading because if you do some wrong analysis then it can be very lossful for the long term traders
I have tried both the long and short term trading methods. I have tested both and i know for a fact that they have their separate unique advantages and disadvantages as well. I prefer long term trading most times.

If you have less amount of money in your trading account, then i think it is better to go for short term trading in forex. Because it gives you the chance of getting profits quickly and it has less amount risks, though profits may be smaller. But if you have large amount of money, then you can go for long term trading in forex. Because hte larger the money, the larger the profits but risks are too high here. So think before getting in.

The long term trading methods are more stable since they are the ones which gives us more trading ranges and thus the ability of making the profits gets increased drastically. This also means that many times we have seen that in the short term trades loss happens most of the times due to the changing market volatility.

Trading style depends on person to person. if one person likes to trade in a long term then he can go the long term way and if not then short them should be his option. Many new traders also like to scalp which is one of the most risky thing to do but still all the trading time frame depends on person to person.

I prefer long time forex trading because in long terms you don't have to sit in front of the terminal watching each and every move of the pair and then you can make good profits from long time trading then short term. One great risk is that you have to place your stop loss at a fairly large margin to let price breath within that and if unluckily you SL got hit then it would be huge loss as wel
i agree with you. in long term trading there is no need to sit continue to in front of chart for watching the price movement.
and one other thing in long term trading there is need less analysis compair to short term trading. if we enter at right time like over sold or over bought levels then there is very less chance to hit stop loss.

long term is actually called a definite signal and safe, but sometimes we feel this is a very long time, we are impatient in waiting, we want a quick profit. but without a suitable base. should we improve our system to better results.
I think it depends on each individual trader, if I was day trading 1 day trade that is about 2-5 hours with the analysis that I wear it well, the most important thing you can be disciplined and consistent profit.

I usually do short term trading but also focus on long term because for short term trading we must know the long term direction of the market. For this purpose I use different charts from M5 to H1.
Long term trading and short term trading , it depends on the market conditions and your own condition ,if you get profit during a short time , you should set your trade close . If you are getting too much loss , you should keep your trade open for a long term in order to save your investment . So i never thought about that. I give time to my trades and never partitioned my trades with time as a factor.

Making fast cash is not easy, and that too consistently. And in the process of making fast cash we may expose ourselves to more risk leading to more loss. So i feel it is safe to protect our capital and start building the equity slowly.

By long term trading, you should be talking about leaving your trade to run for more than 2 days and with a target over 150 points. If your trade just targets 50 to 100 points and it ends within 24hrs, then that is a short term trade.

Though it has high risk consider to short term forex trading, but it has also a chance of getting higher profits.

Both ways are best here because its up to you.If you are useing as a part itme business then it will best for you short term if you are free then you can also do long term trading.
But I do see the difference between short term trader with part time trader whereas long term trader and full time trader. Short or long term trading styles are decided by our strategy whereas part time or full time trading is influence with our available time to trade. But all our goal is profit regardless of these classification so much study needs to be put before choosing the best suits us....

Short term is very profitable and long term is also very profitable. Now the trader is supposed to utilize the one that serves them very well and makes for them the desired profits that they need.

Mary khayaal main agar aap kay pass ziada time hay phir bhi aap ko long term trade hi karna chahiye konkay short time trade main aap ko ziada faida bhi naheen milta aur nuqsaan ka chance bhi ziada hota hay.

I like to trade for the long term as the long term trading is very safe rather than the short term trading but most important thing we have to do while placing the trade for the long term that we have to track the trend of the pair so that we can take position according to that and make money.

Yes you are right. People do not have to go with short term trading for most of the times but they have to do long term trading also. Because if the economic condition of the currency is weak or good from this we decide trend and keep our position for long term. I think in long term we will get more return than short term.

Forex trading is complicated who do not use the fundamental before placing the trade and directly place the trade as that position most of the times comes in the loss. This is very complicated but if you make use of the fundamentals then you can easily earn without any complication.

Short term forex trading is done by most of the people. I also like to do short term trade. The reason behind this is that i have small capital invested in such huge market. If anyone want to do long term forex trading, he should have a large capital in his account and also aware of the long term trend. I will like to trade long term but there is problem of capital that why doing short term trading.

Well there are different type of traders who trade in different ways . Some may prefer to trade daily , well if we trade daily then there is more chances of loss but if we have good knowledge and experience and if we take every decision very carefully then we can also make profit daily too. Its depend upon how we trade . Some trade may prefer to trade for long term well there are less chances of loss and we can make large amount of profit . its trader choice , how they want to trade whether on daily basis or for a long term.
