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

yes me too
I've had floating minus up to 2 weeks, but I hold
and that made me restless and uneasy
now I just short-term trading, because it feels uncomfortable if you have to look at floating minus continue

according to me short term trading is good n in long term trading one can loss r he may be always thinkin bout tht long trem trading. best to start the trade in morning n end in night so can sleep with out fear of the market.:)

I am very long term trader. I may hold my positions even 2-3 months sometimes, i cant able to see the platform all the time. So only, long term trading is suitable for me. In this method also good profit, but we want to wait for a long time to make profit.

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.

yes i agree with you. But in short term, we want to trade all time or always on the platform. If you choose long term trading, just set take profit and wait for the target. And also pending orders is one of the great advantages in our side.

I think trders o short term aur long term ek sath leke chalna chahaiye
Short term me traders har trade ko 15-20 pip me lcose kar dete hai jabki longe term me har trade 300-800 pip tak jata hai

i think take a profit from 3 tarde withe 2.0 lot and 20 Pips is best

yeah if you use a lot size greater then meets these demands can maximize your profits even in a small number of pips but must be careful to balance the margin

yes it was good ... but remember, the amount that we put no more than 3% of capital that we have ... just to watch if you have a floating ...

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.

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 probably caused you too often see price chart ...
if we want long-term trading, it's better when open positions using the TP and SL ... then do not be too often open the chart...

iska ek bahut acha solution hai brother
aap long term ke sath sath short term bhi karte raha kariye
ise aapko apni long term wali deal ko kaatne ka zada man nahi karega kyunki aap choti choti kayi deals kaat chuke hoge

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...

:) according to me short term trading gives small profits and long term trades give more profits so its very simple then which you want to select .......but some guys even meke large profits from least time.......i still gotta learn tht;)

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.

altough given small profit , but we can consistent with our profit, it no problem.
from little profit can be a large profit in next time if we are consistent

depends on the chart profile ; system gives signal by the price movement..
chart profile comes in different looks by each trading sessions...

i just prefer short term trading because just using only usd100 as capital.i would not hold my position for long time to take the profit or cut loss.

forex me bade profit se zada importance consistent profit ki rehti hai
isliye zadatar trader shprt term tarding mr zada believe karte hai
lekin mere hisab se dono trading sath sath chalni chahaiye

waise main 1 day tak trading karna pasand karta hoon. par kabhi kabhi bahut din ka trading bhi kar leta hoon.
waise mujhe short trading accha lagta he. par scalping ekdam accha nhi lagta. agar aap ke paas balance accha ho to aap long trading me jaye.

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

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

main to hamesha long term prefer karta hu kyunki jitna kam position open ho utna hi tension aur loss kam hota hai, long term me hume zyada pips bhi milta hai

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.

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.

forex and gambling do alag alag cheez hai.kyun ki gambling mein future uncertain hota hai..while forex mein humein certainity ka advantage milta hai.jab hum time based forex trading karte hai to usme jyadatar profit ka factor affect karta hai...aur short term trading se jyada succesful long term trading hai..
