Trading Discussion

QUESTIONS

  1. Are Scalpers generally impatient beings?

  2. If there was a 10 years challenge between a short term trader and a long term trader, who would come out stronger? Who would go into extinction?

  3. We talk of risk in money management, now looking at risk in trading method, between the short term and long term trader, who has the most risk exposure?

  4. Majority of new trader started with scalping (please correct me if I’m wrong) and with time evolved as they begin to know thyself. Some evolved to long term traders (Swing and hedgers) while others remained in the scalping world and very few combined both. Do you think there are natural phenomenon that caused this demarcation?

I’m really curious, you can pick any question of your choice, let’s discuss.
