“Scalping” refers to the shortest of all trading strategies. The trader takes advantage of very short-term opportunities, builds up a position and immediately closes it out as soon as a profit is achieved. In order to make suitable profits, “scalpers” usually invest a lot of capital. You can find “scalpers” primarily in the area of raw materials and foreign exchange trading, but this strategy is also often used in stock market futures.
“Scalpers” work exclusively on the basis of technical analysis and with very short time horizons. Accordingly, this approach is reserved for very experienced and disciplined traders, because as attractive and exciting as this strategy is, it also involves the highest risk of all the strategies presented here.
