What defines a scalping-friendly (and unfriendly) broker?

What exactly makes a broker good for scalping?

I can only think of the following:

[ul]
[li]Tight spreads
[/li][li]No dealing desk (NDD) - straight through processing (STP)
[/li][li]Low latency
[/li][li]I’ve noticed some brokers only allow you to set stop losses (SL) and take profits (TP) at least e.g. 5 pips from the market price, so this is no good for scalping
[/li][/ul]

When a broker advertises its scalping-friendliness, is it just a marketing tool that factors in the above?

Anything else a budding new scalper should be aware of when deciding on a broker?

I would add reputation. You should always choose a regulated broker.
