the main difference is for short trading you need to collect small pips so you have to use high leverage and tight stoploose.but for long trades you will need big pips.and you will low leverage and very long stoploose and also long take profit targets,so naturally the short period trading have ore risk compare to long time trading.
Different traders have different trading styles and for some trader short term trading is profitable and for some long term trading. I feel long term trading is more profitable. A trader must stick to his trading style and do whatever he feels is good for him.
Some times the markets change direction due to its risky and unpredictable nature and when a trader is already in a trade and for short term and the trend moves in his favor for long time then it is better to stay in the same trade for a longer period of time to earn more profit from the same trade .
Short term or long trem trading depends on investor's stratagy. For long term trading you must have good patience so that you can wait for your targeted profit.while mostly small investors usually trade for short period.
You seem confused about what you want to trade. You need to select the method you feel is good for you. If you want to trade long term then you should consider higher time frame charts.I also think that long term trading is more profitable.
I type intraday. style I use is scalping. I do not like to wait a long time because I have a lot of time in front of the chart. My daily terget dalah 20 Pip, unlike the long term as 50 Pip. I prefer a small but consistent profits.Quote:

trading in precious metals like gold is very risky that it requires a large capital, and you must make a profound management of money that most traders lose lures in silver gold, by that the spread is very high relative to foreign currencies.Quote:
