Scalping trading is very risky. Even if there is profit, there is more possibility of loss.

 

[Alexander Hudson]

I think scalping is way too high of a risk for newbie since the price fluctuates so fast that they might have trouble controlling their trade whereas they don't have to think that much in long term trade cause they can enter at a very low price and then sell at a higher price so not a lot of monitoring and not a lot of risking to take. They can make profit easier and there is less risk with long term trades as we expect prices to rise when market open so they can buy right before market open or a day ahead to get a higher profit.

Yes. this is very risky for the newbies.

Unnecessary trade is a very common problem for newbies. Actually you do it out of confusion. You don't have trust on your strategy and yourself. You should have clear idea about your risk reward ratio and winning ratio. You lack confidence. It comes from not knowing what you are doing. Practice on demo find out your winning trade ratio. The main point is you have to increase your skills.

Scalping is a good way to make quick profits by making use of the market fluctuation. Without having good practice and knowledge to find the right entry/exit points, scalping is a risky strategy.

 

[Adrienlord]

I totally agree with the opinion that scalping is riskier for the newbies than any other type of trading. Actually, it is not only a matter of skills, but also it is the matter of psychology. Scalping presupposes that a trader sits before the screen all day long and thinks about the current trades. This can influence psychological state in negative way and a newbie may think of quitting trading forever.

 

[Moralsand]

The first danger for a newbie in scalping is that all the movements should be precise and on time. Which leads us to the conclusion that a scalping trader should be experienced enough not to confuse the buttons and pattern. The second risk is simply the fact that scalpers usually do more deals than swing traders, that is why scalping newbies have more opportunities to fail and lose the money.

Scalping is a profitable short term strategy but it has risk also. Most traders do not get success just because of scalping. Scalping tends us to do more trading. As a result it creates undisciplined traders. After getting skilled you can do scalping.

 

[Alicia Lynch]

New traders have less knowledge so scalping is very risky for them.

 

[Kazumu Fukunaga]

Yes for newbies scalping is very risky. It makes them do over trading. Usually newbies spend a lot of time on charts and lead them to over trading.

 

[Rageskin]

I don't think that there are some trading styles which can somehow be divided into for newbies and for professionals. Every trading style is for those who want to master it, you know. So, I suppose that there are some styles which might be a bit harder for newbies like scalping of course, binaries (actually don't advice ti use them at all). Every trading style is a high risk you either earn money or lose everything. That's the way the market works. However, newbies are the same people as professionals and if they want to trade by scalping then they are able to try it.

 

[Kazumu Fukunaga]

Newbie should avoid scalping as it can ruin their trading psychology. Most traders develop overtrading habit by doing scalping in their early trading life. Then they struggle to change that habit.
