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.

It depends on trader to trader..
various trader believe to open and close deals on daily basis while many traders wait for several week or months in order to get huge profit..
Both ways of trading are equally good and it is decided by the trader itself..

But it takes some time to be a long term trader, first we need to gather funds and then we should get some good control over our emotions.

I agree with nilu..
For long term trading you must have good patience so that you can wait for your profit..
As far as i have seen, small traders usually trade for daily profit..

I do both long and short and its depend on market movement . actually i like short because it may give quick profit but here risk also . anyway its better to trade long and short after watching the market movement i think.

i am short term trader because my capital investment is too low in real account. for long term trading need large capital investment and patience.

I am always doing short trade. because My capital is very small. also in short time trade there is more chances to win. in long trade the time is taking too. so for me short trade.

ye bahut acha tarika hai trading karne ka..
agar aapko long term ke hisab sek oi trade mile to usme deal karna bahut sahi rehta hai..
aur iske sath sath aap short term me bhi trade karte jaoge top aapki earning achi hogi..
long term ke liye log 400-500 pips tak khel jate hai aur short trade me 15-20 pip pe bhi profit kamaya ja sakta hai

if your average take profit is 50 pips in each day how about with your stop loss target is same too?

Everyone sets his target according to his own strategy for me 10 pips daily are enough with 1 standard lot size.If i get 10 pips i close my terminal and do not trade more and when my equity will increase i'll increase my lot size to get more profit.

10pips is easily achived..but i want to know what is you sl...
10-15pips movement we can see within few second..if your sl is also 10 pips its meaning your trading is close with in few minuts...in this condition you have more chance and time for open new orders..

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.

kayi log scalping ke zariye 4-5 pips me itna profit kama lete hai jitna ki log 50-60 pips me bhi nahi kamatee
Is hisab se 10-20 pip ke liye trade karna bhi kafi sahi rehta hai kyunki aap itne pip difference pe hi kafi acha profit kama sakte hai

because when the position is open, then the feeling of being worried, and always wanted to observe the price.

Yes, most of the individuals like short term trading because they want to earn more and more pips and they do not like to hold their position for long time.

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 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...

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.

Short term traders are known as scalpers due to the fact that they leave their positions for a very short time mostly in minutes andf they target few pips. They use shorter time frames such as m1 to m15 but longterm traders wouled like to leave their postions ranging for days, weeks and even months and they target large pips. They use the longer timeframes such as h4 to m1 charts.

maybe long term trader need more capital balance than short term trader, because if they get a loss , i think they loss in many pips. so they must have good resilience balance that can avoid the margin crisis.

yes,but i think they lose in many dollars and not in pips.
and mostly i think that long term traders wont get margin call easily as they will be more planned and their risk factor will be less.

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.

short trem trading aur long term tarding : dono ke apne apne fayde hai
mere hisab se to traders ko dono hi karne chahiey ek sath..1 long term wala trade maar dean chahaiey aur sath me short term trade bhi karte rehna chahaiye
ye zada profitable rehta hai

bhaijaan aapne sahi baat bolu hume 2 account used karna chahiye pehle account me long term wala strategy aur dusre account me short term wal strategy jiske hume faidya ho sakta hai

For me, longterm trade depends on the Time Fraem that used by traders, such as daily, Weekly and Monthly. However, for the shortterm, more to the Time Frame 5m up to 4H.

I am afraid trading short time is gambling, The common point between forex and gambling is the risk factor otherwise there is nothing common in it. Forex is very good online business and with your hard and knowledge on it you can earn huge, it is only platform where you can earn a lot. Gambling is different it is luck based, you do not need any hard work to win it, if luck is with you, you earn other wise you lose. Forex is always better than gambling, it is the best business.

short term forex trading can be highly stressful if done over a long period of time, as we have probably discovered if we have any experience of forex trading. we need quick fingers to trade in and out of positions and we need to make decisions quickly regarding entries and exits.

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.

I think, real longterm, like D1 chart and bigger is just for traders who trade without leverage like
money exchange on bank accounts. For very good analytic in volatile times, it could be profitable from
10% to 30% of profit per year. Its good for some funds or for those who have to be safe with money on the bank.
But I think its not for forex with leverage like we trade with.
So midterm is longest periode we can trade with leverage. For most of us, shortterm. I trade shortterm also but
sometimes it happen tha I can close some positions for longer periode of time (depend on market).
But between Iam waiting to close all positions in profit I trade shortterm with other (new) positions.
So I prefer shortterm but in worst case midterm tradings with leverage.

long trem trading ke liye day1 ka chart bahut effective hota hai

Once again it depends on the trading strategy of a individual if he prefers to do short term trading or long term trading.As some traders prefer to do scalping so they do short term trading and aim at profits of few pips , whereas there are some traders who trade on fundamental analysis and do long term trading and keep their position open for long.So both are good.

even i use D1 chart for long term trades which i finish up by the end of the week or couple of days, and also sometimes peek into H4 chart to get a preview if so but never go to any else of the charts coz it just increses the confusion and also a lot bad for long term trade

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.

hmmm. We have to know that longterm trades are very unpredictable if we trade with leverage.
Reason is because longterm trades are much more under infulence of fundamentals than
shortterm trades. OK, on veryshortterm chart, some intraday event can produce unexpecting move but
when we place trade on longterm chart and decide to enter technicly, we cant predict strong fundamental market mover they are
comming on the market with the time. When we will see we are in wrong direcion because of new fundamentals, we are too far
in loss.
I know such theories like we have to place shortterm trades in direction of longterm direction but I beleave
they isnt profitable and we have to place shortterm trades without any influence of analysis in bigger timeframes.
I know most of traders wont agree with me but on my experience most of such standard "advices" like
"trade with the trend, trade in direction of bigger timeframes, place strop losses etc etc ... I beleave they are
wrong and I even think it is almost inpossible to trade very profitable on longterm under such "limitations".

p.s. I am also using info regard direction on M30 chart when Iam placing the trade on M5 chart
but to use D1 chart like many of "teacher" advices us, I think it is too risky.
Even if we are right 8 times in 10 trades, 2 loosing positions are enough to finish in loss in general.

short term and long term tradings has its own pros and cons. some believe that short term is more profitable than long term and some believe long term to be more profitable.

but it is not as they think so, both can be profitable if we have the right techniques and follow the market closely.

so the important thing is the right technique/strategy, whether one does long term or short term trading doesnt matter

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 am short term trader because my capital investment is too low in real account. for long term trading need large capital investment and patience.

I think long term trading is more beneficial than short time trading. I also prefer to trade for long times because it has less risk and huge profits.

why would you say that the long term has a less risk? give me a reason? I think about the big or small the risk not on longterm or short term, but lies in money management, if you have good money management, then there is no problem with the risk of longterm or short term
if about longterm can get huge profits must be in capital used, and usually longterm must have big fund

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.

Short term traders are known as scalpers due to the fact that they leave their positions for a very short time mostly in minutes andf they target few pips. They use shorter time frames such as m1 to m15 but longterm traders wouled like to leave their postions ranging for days, weeks and even months and they target large pips. They use the longer timeframes such as h4 to m1 charts.

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

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.

even i use D1 chart for long term trades which i finish up by the end of the week or couple of days, and also sometimes peek into H4 chart to get a preview if so but never go to any else of the charts coz it just increses the confusion and also a lot bad for long term trade

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.

friend i am not agree with you...you are right that in short term trading give small profit but we can make it high with using more lot size. may be some guys who making high profit in short term they use high lot size.
In short term trading our analysis change very quick so its give us quick returns bt in long term trading we should wait for longs time.

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.

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.

maybe long term trader need more capital balance than short term trader, because if they get a loss , i think they loss in many pips. so they must have good resilience balance that can avoid the margin crisis.

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.

Long term trading ke liye chota sa capital bi chalta hai. chota capital se bi hum Long term trading kar sakte hai, iske liye humko small lot se trading suro karna padegi aur strict money management karna bi jaroori hai.

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

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.

Everyone sets his target according to his own strategy for me 10 pips daily are enough with 1 standard lot size.If i get 10 pips i close my terminal and do not trade more and when my equity will increase i'll increase my lot size to get more profit.

look you are using a very high risk strategy, you use high size of lots and just take a little profit, how much capital you use? are compatible with risk management and money management? and I hope you always be careful not to forget to use the SL,
short-term or long term the most important thing is always think about the risks to be faced and therefore risk management very important

Short term forex trading or Long ter forex trading? which trading do u prefer.aapke hisab se hame short term trading karni chaye ya long term kismai hame jada faida ho sakta hai??

Both are profitable. But slightly long term trading is profitable. If you are part time trader then you better select short term trading whereas if you are professional trader, you better do long term trading. In part time job you cannot manage your time properly for long term trading. You cannot give your time and concentration properly. So just handle short term trading if you are part time worker. And if you think you are expert and can manage your time, money and focus on your work, you just go for long term trading. It will be extremely profitable.

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

You are trading with a standard one lot orders means you already have good amount of capital in hand along with good strategy to make profit. I wish keep going like this and build the capital steadily.

Actually short term and long term trading, trader pe depend krti hy. Agr tu trader k pass small capital hy tb us k lye short term trading best hy aur agr investment jyada hy tb long term trading b kr sakta hy but long term k lye jyada experience and knowledge ki jarorat hoti hy.

ya its all depend on traders whether he wants short term trading or long term trading. if he has good knowledge and experience then by investing small capital only he can earn good profit by using short term but for long term he will require larger capital investment

Forex may be more suitable for short term, because of rapid price movement ...
whereas for long term investment I think it is less suitable, better to invest in commodities like gold if you want to keep it for long term ...

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.

i think its sutable for both short term & long term.

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.

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.

i am not agree with you.that long term trader get more return compair to short term trader.
if you are doing long term trading then you only enter once in market and exit order at your target.
but if you are short term trader then you find more chance for entery. the overlaping of movement price exced your profit.

I am not agreed with your statement, short term trading will cause looses for the traders because the chances of being over traded are always there for the traders. I personally like long term trades and i am not in the favor of scalping.

its not true short time trade causes loss all time but its also great way to earn quick profit if our analysis is correct and take entry at the good time . anyway there is no doubt with long to follow the trend its low risk but short also not bad and scalping is another things i think.

ya if you have time then you should do the long term trading because by long term trading you can earn more profit than short term trading but if you get small time then you can go for shot term trading

I believe earning depends on the traders ability, both short term and long term traders can make more or less the same amount of money depending on there ability. Even a good scalper can make much money than long term trader.

yes i also believe short and long is not much important things but the important things is that in which method like trader and in which they feel comfortable . anyway both are need skill and if such have then both are opportunity to earn green pips.

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

well friend long term trader timeing k hisaab se nahi krte hai...i am not agree with you that long term trading me jyda profit hota hai or short term me kam. mera mannaa hai ki short term me jyda profit milta hai kyo ki es short term me hame kai baar enter hone ka chance milta hai jabki long term me only once.

it is simple that whether you want to win or lose and if you go for long term and then you can have success easily but if you do not have time and you still thing I do not have time and just try it for long time then maybe that is risk that you are taking . for me short term trading is full time risky.

Well, it is not always the case. If you trade short term with a large amount like 12,000 dollars and you are successful then you will make a lot of money. Our trading balance is the main thing that we can use and make money in forex trading.

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.

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

I think both the trading methods have there own advantage and disadvantages to the traders. One should choose suitable to his nature and time available for that. Both the systems are equally profitable but one should choose what suits best to him/her.

Of course we can do better trading with large capital but no doubt that people who have small capital can also gain a handsome amount of profit but they need to be short term trader and should trade at least 5 hours in a day.

I liked short term trading than long term trading. It always gives me satisfaction and happiness if I can earn profits at early times. One thing i liked about short term trading is that I can close my trading platform anytime as long my position is closed and not worried if I have negative floating position remaining in there. That makes me stress free.

true, I feel its also. Short term trading is better than the long term. I use scalping techniques, when it has reached a daily profit target then I decided no longer trading on that day.
