Forex Scalping
Scalping in the forex market involves trading currencies based on a set of realtime analysis. The purpose of scalping is to make a profit by buying or selling
currencies and holding the position for a very short time and closing it for a
small profit. Many trades are placed throughout the trading day and the
system that is used by these traders is usually based on a set of signals derived
from technical analysis charting tools, and is made up of a multitude of
signals, that create a buy or sell decision when they point in the same
direction. A forexscalper looks for a large number of trades expecting a small
profit each time. Scalping is a method where traders allow their positions to

last only for a matter of seconds, to a full minute and rarely longer than that.
(if a trader holds a position for more than a minute or two it is not considered
scalping, but rather regular trading.)

Forex Scalping Systems

A forex scalping system can be either manual, where the trader looks for
signals and interprets whether to buy or sell; or automated, where the trader
"teaches" the software to look for signals and how to interpret them. The
timely nature of technical analysis makes real-time charts the tool of choice
for forex scalpers.

Why Scalping?
The purpose of scalping is to make small profits while exposing a trading
account to a very limited risk, which is due to a quick open/close trading
mode.
There wouldnt be any point in scalping for many traders if they werent
allowed to trade with highly leveraged accounts. Only the ability to operate
with large funds of, actually, still virtual money, empowers traders to profit
from just a 2-3 pip move.

How do they do it?

Suppose a scalper opens a trading position of $1000 with the EUR/USD. For
each pip he will now earn $10 Closing the trade with only a 5 pip profit
brings it up to $50 not bad for less than a minute of work

Forex brokers for Scalping

Ask your broker if they allow scalping Which brokers allow scalping?

INTRODUCTION: Price Action Scalper

Dear traders. We all want to make fast money with Forex. There are 100s of
scalping trading strategies in Forex, but 99,9% of them do not work or are just
very difficult to follow.
Scalping using the mt4 indicators can be very difficult due to signal delays,
lagging etc. In this case sometimes is much more profitable to use a price
action scalping system that uses no indicators. The price will tell you what to
do. The price is your signal and your best indicator. There is one price action
scalping system that involves no indicators, no robots only your trading
screen. The following scalping system has proven to work just fine and you
will be able to make a good profit if you follow all the rules and risk
management recommendations.
The Price Action Scalper uses no complicated rules and will be very easy to
use for any trader even if you have never traded Forex before.

All you need to know is how to open a couple of trading charts on your trading
terminal. The system does not require a trader to follow major Forex rules
like: do not trade against a trend, ignore signals against a trend because the
system itself confirms trend following!
Scalping is not easy for beginners, please try the system on your demo account
for at least one month before going live.

The System:
The "Price Action Scalper is a trading strategy using4 screens it is a no
indicators Forex strategy. It gives a good chance of profit, with proper risk
management - and the possibility of a stable income.
This universal system can be used for a very short scalping trading session as
well as for a regular day of trading longer trades. We will discuss both
methods (when to place orders, take profit, set a stop loss) for both scalping
and normal day trading.
The "Price Action Scalper is based on a 4-screen system, and uses the H1,
M5, M15 and M30 time frames; protective stop orders including a trailing
stop, a stop loss as well as take profit levels.
In order to implement the system all you have to do is to open (in your
trading terminal) four windows with the currency pair (for example
EUR/USD) timeframes of H1, M5, M15, M30. If you choose "Vertical" in the
"Window" menu Metatrader 4 four screens in the terminal will be placed in
adjacent windows in order.

How it works:

The Price Action Scalper system based on a strong current trend

confirmation entry signal which is very easy to see on your trading terminal
4 windows. You will get a signal once per hour (every hour). To use this
system you dont need to sit and watch the market all the time just get ready
at the last minute of the current hour if there is a signal place a trade, if
not you are free again for the next 59 minutes until the next trading
opportunity. Simple and convenient!
BUY entry:
- Wait for a current hour candle to close
- If all 4 of the last candles (M5, M15, M30 and 1H) closed in green wait
for the price to go another 3 pips above the close and instantly place a BUY
order.

From the screenshot above:

1. On 1H chart - a 9:00 candle closed green at 10:00.
2. On M30 chart a 9:30 candle closed green at 10:00
3. On M15 chart a 9:45 candle closed green at 10:00
4. On M5 chart a 9:55 candle closed green at 10:00

5. The price goes another 3 pips above the close.

If all the above conditions met place a BUY order at current price:

It is very important to wait until the price moves another 3 pips above the
close it is your double confirmed entry signal. If you prefer to use the system

as a scalper make sure to keep your take profit and stop loss orders very
tight. We will discuss all the scalping and/or longer day trading entries below.
Enjoy great and fast profit, see the sample below (take profit and stop loss for
this trade will be explained below)

An opposite rule for a SELL entry.

SELL entry:
- Wait for a current hour candle to close
- If all 4 last candles (M5, M15, M30 and 1H) closed in red wait for the
price to go another 3 pips below the close and instantly place a SELL order.
For example:
1. On 1H chart - an 11:00 candle closed red at 12:00.
2. On M30 chart an 11:30 candle closed red at 12:00
3. On M15 chart an 11:45 candle closed red at 12:00
4. On M5 chart an 11:55 candle closed red at 12:00
5. The price goes another 3 pips below the close.
If all the above conditions have been met place a SELL order at the current
price!
This example is, of course, perfect. In reality, a candle, say, M15 may be closed
green. In this case, other candles being red, we will have to wait for the next
candle.
STOP LOSS and TAKE PROFIT
3 options
1. Place a fixed stop loss at 2 pips below the low of the previous 1 hour candle
for a buy trade or 2 pips above the high of the previous 1 hours candle for a sell
trade. This is the best option for a short term scalping trade.

2. Place a fixed stop loss at 20 pips away from your entry point:

When the price reaches 15 pips stop loss is transferred to breakeven.

Depending on your trading preferences, you can resort to the trailing stop.
3. Place your stop loss order near the major highs/lows major support and
resistance levels. The Price Action Scalper system can be successful only by
strict compliance with the rules. Take-profit should always be 2-3 times
greater than the stop loss.

Place a fixed take profit at 30-40 pips away from your entry point:

Usually You can expect: 75-80+% of your trades to be profitable .

Note for This system: do not trade right before, during or immediately after
major news releases.

Scalping tips:

But there are several things that newer Forex scalpers must take into
consideration. This is the main point of this article. So please pay attention
and I assure you that you will become a proficient Forex scalper in no time
flat!
1. Always ask if it's allowed.
This is the first and biggest thing that you need to do when scalping Forex. So
always make sure your brokerage allows you to trade with this amazing style! I
like to call and talk to a manager or someone important. I have asked people
on the chat if scalping forex was allowed andthey all said that it was. Call and
ask your broker, it was well worth it.
2. Scalping in numbers is the secret!
Remember earlier when I told you that scalping a single pair won't make you
much money? Have you ever heard of the saying, "There's power in
numbers?" Well this is a scientific fact that has been proven over and over

again. When you scalp a pair make sure that you purchase a high amount.
This is to maximize your profits. So if your trade makes 2 pips you can make
upwards of a couple hundred to a couple thousand dollars.
3. Be careful.
This is probably going to be one of the most important tips ever. Along with
the quick profits, you can and most likely will come across a couple losses on
this magical Forex scalping journey! This is why you have to be able to accept
these losses. Trading on a small scale can be easier for some. I always suggest
that newer traders should really try to scalp on a demo account. Get
comfortable with trading on a short term scale. I would advise that you should
only scalp on a live account when you feel 100% comfortable with every trade.
Imagine the demo account being your money. Imagine taking a huge loss in
real life when you make a mistake. When you feel fully comfortable with
everything even after a big loss, then you are ready to trade for real.
4. Scalp the Forex market with a plan!
This is the best way to avoid losses during your adventure. Use that demo
account that we talked about earlier to find a suitable set of indicators or
oscillators or even both! The demo account allows you to trade in a real time
setting while trying out different systems. This can greatly increase your odds
of making a good profit. Try every single combination of technical indicators.
Do this until you find a pair that you like. Once you find one then you will
truly be on your Forex scalping journey. Please make sure that you use my
tips.

Warm regards
