When people talk about Forex trading online in the short term, they almost always talk about scalping. After all this is one of the most profitable Forex trading strategies, and you can do a scalp effectively with only 100 USD as trading capital. But scalping is also one of the most risky and tiring strategies so people easily make mistakes.
Scalping is a term for trading strategies that prioritizes large quantities of orders that are closed only after a few ticks. Scalping takes advantage of very small price movements on tick or minute charts and often only captures minimal profits for traders.
To determine when it's time to open a position, scalpers always analyze the news and try to jump into bullish and bearish movements. This amplitude or range of movements is not a problem - scalper jumps out after profit of only 5-10 pips.
5 pips is equivalent to 0.5% profit - a very small number. But that is only one deal. Scalper opens dozens of orders every hour. Not everything works, but at the end of the trading day, experienced scalpers often get 5% pure profit which is equivalent to 100% monthly profit, provided that scalper works in routine working hours.
However scalping is very demanding and certainly not for everyone. For one successful scalper, there are hundreds of other scalpers who lose all their money because of using this strategy.

scalping by targeting a few pip gains makes a trader use a large lot for one transaction or a reasonable lot with a fast execution speed closed per transaction, ideally a 5-10 pip in a single target transaction ... scalping for me must be traders who can be disciplined and quickly make decisions when facing the market

Scalping technique is a method where a trader takes small profits regularly by opening and closing positions several times a day. In this way, traders try to get profit when fast movements occur. A scalper will act quickly, most traders who use scalping, they only use a short amount of time such as supply in 1 minute or 5 minutes and can also be done in 15 minutes.

scalping is the most used technique. where getting into the market quickly comes out quickly with a short target of around 5-10 pips.
little added, scalping is in short term and requires very good and fast skills in executing, because a little mistake can result in loss.

Scalping techniques are identical to short-term trading, because they don't hold transactions for too long.
