Short term forex trading or Long term forex trading?

[chintan]

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.

Kuch average traders, i mean jo na jyada expert hon aur na he newbie, aisa krty hen k short term trading krty hen aur jb unki koi position loss main jati hy tu wo usko long term main convert kr dyty hen stop loss apply kiye bgair tu mery khyal sy un traders ko aisa nahi krna chahye kiun k market hmary against boht deep b ja skti hy kis sy sari investment k loss hony ka b khtra hota hy.

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.

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.

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 ...

i think its sutable for both short term & long term.
but if we are trading in short term then we got more chance and profit is also more compare to long term trading. i am short term trader. i trade accourding to day cahrt but my trade open for 2-3days.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.
