Scalping is a trading style that specializes in profiting off small price changes, generally after a trade is executed and becomes profitable.
It requires a trader to have a strict exit strategy because one large loss could eliminate the many small gains the trader worked to obtain.
Using a the daily time frame is the best as you will be buying into a trend that you can confirm on the larger time scale while still being relatively quick in getting you gains.
Example;
You have identified an ascending channel by doing some Technical Analysis (TA) confirming this trend.
1. You will buy coin “X” when the candlestick touches the lower trend line and a reversal to the upside is confirmed.
2. You can now set a limit sell order at the previous high. Or slightly higher where you believe the price will reach.
3. Setting a stop loss on your trade can be set at the previous Low of the coin.
Scalp trading requirements:
✅ Daily time frame uptrend
✅ Identified a support and resistance
✅ It is a good coin
