Scalping is a high-frequency trading style where traders aim to profit from small price movements by executing multiple trades throughout the day. It requires excellent execution speed, low brokerage costs, and access to real-time data. Scalpers use 1-minute or 5-minute charts and often trade liquid stocks, Nifty/BankNifty, or forex pairs. Strategies include breakout scalping, range scalping, and trend-following scalps. Technical indicators like VWAP, Bollinger Bands, and Stochastic Oscillators are commonly used. Due to rapid trade execution, risk management is vital. Profits per trade are small, so volume and consistency matter. Slippage and spread must be minimal. Scalping is mentally exhausting and not ideal for beginners. It requires strict discipline, focus, and lightning-fast decision-making. Some scalpers automate their strategies using trading bots. While profits can add up quickly, losses can also multiply if not controlled. Proper journaling and reviewing trades frequently help refine techniques and avoid overtrading.
