Trading Strategy: Scalping (Hunting Small Gains)

Scalping is a high-speed trading strategy that seeks to capitalize on small price movements over a short period. Unlike other strategies that wait for large trends, scalpers make dozens or even hundreds of trades per day, accumulating minimal profits on each.

The goal is to enter and exit the market quickly, often in seconds or minutes, to capture price differences that may be only a few basis points. Scalpers benefit from the high volume of their trades, as the sum of many tiny gains can result in a considerable profit by the end of the day.

To execute scalping, traders heavily rely on technical analysis in very short time frames (1 to 5-minute charts) and tools such as the order book (depth of market) and volume. They seek high liquidity in assets to ensure fast entries and exits without significant slippage. Risk management is extremely strict, with very tight stop-losses, as a single large loss can wipe out the profits from multiple successful trades.

It is a strategy that demands constant attention, mental agility, and iron discipline. It is not for beginners, as the stress, trading commissions, and the need for instant decisions can be overwhelming. It requires nearly full-time dedication and flawless execution to be profitable.
