Scalping

Scalping is a short-term trading strategy where traders buy and sell financial assets, like stocks or currencies, within very short time frames—sometimes seconds or minutes. The goal is to make small profits from frequent transactions by taking advantage of tiny price movements. Scalpers rely on quick decision-making and technical analysis, aiming to accumulate gains that add up over many trades. It requires discipline, speed, and a solid understanding of market dynamics, and is often used in highly liquid markets where prices change rapidly.
