Scalpers will certainly benefit from these type of programable platform.. BUT..
it all depends on their Strategy. Scalper can also have strategy which gives trade duration of few minutes.
A Normal trader, knowing his constraints will pick up an straategy that fits his constraints.
Same goes for scalper, that he needs to pick up the strategy that fits his constraint..
IMO, its is the strategy that will make u money.. not tools or platform..
who knows, probably such a fast system can also loose money at the same fast rate.
Happy Trading.
