yes some trades are happy due to the style of there trading and they used to think themselves as brilliant as some ma friends did.
And finally they lost with margin call,,,

I am a day trader but some time I change in to swing trading style due to pair behaviour which I traded. Some time also do scalping because scalping give good profit in very short time. But I never trade without any analysis because scalping is most dangerous and It is based on our time period analysing.

yeah..u r right scalping needed less time for chart analysis and other technical analysis..because scalping is time based technique..and scalping is good for those who has less knowledge..and this can be proved helpfull to earn to newbies

Some traders like to scalp and they are happy with their trading style but some traders call scalpers forex losers.

Some traders are intra day traders who hold their positions for a longer time but close their position in the same day these traders are called Day Traders.

Some traders hold their positions for few days but not more than week these traders are called swing traders.

Which kind of trader you are and which trading style you think is more beneficial.

i like scalping, it is simple and just need a short time to get profit but sometimes i use intra day strategy, when the condition changed...

It is better to do day trading rather than scalping. because in scalping you will come on negative side many times, in this case losses should be more. So it is better to avoid scalping and do a day trading. Take a position at a point where you think the pair will move according to your thinking.

yes 10$ is very small,but if one wants to trade risk free,then it will be useful.a skilled trader can make $10 into hundreds and thousands. but for one to trade fast with $10 and make big profits,scalping will be more preferable.

(balance/1500=lot size ) ? why 1500? this kind of strategy is good only big amounts like 10k.but for example if i have $100 then ($100/1500=0.06) so 0.06 is my lot? omg the profit will be so small that it can be almost negotiable.

[aniket]

that is cool.this target is enough for a part time trader.But the profit can be big only if you use a big lot size.if you use 1 ifx lot then 300 pips per month (ie $300 profit per month) is good.

i am a day trader and i aim for only 30pips per trade.but each kind of trader is unique and we cant tell any type of trading style is not good.
atlast only final profit counts and not the style.Choose the style which you like the most.
