I do scalping in one account while mostly into swing trades into other account.
Scalping is possible in our markets with a twist though.
For me its like making anywhere between 7-8 to 20-22 points in Nifty futures(brokerages excluded) and/or options.
Get in with minimum 15-20 lots (sometimes more, depending upon the conviction in the move), and then offloading one or two at a time as the move starts.
I have a setup and use 15 min charts for the same.
Seldom carry the positions unless the move is visible in hourly charts.
A cardinal rule i like to follow here is if you have something else on your mind dont get into a position.
If u feel u may have to leave for some other work then dont get into a position.
For Scalping we generally use LOWER time frames.
I think 2 minutes is quite sufficient.

I cannot trade anything below 5 mins.
What i do might not be scalping also, just shared my style of trading.
I hear one trades lower time frames in Forex. Would be interested in knowing more.

Scalping is a high risk low reward game, i have done that and its worthless
Momentum trading is a low risk and high reward game, I have done that and I like that.
Technical Trading, I have never done that so dont know much.
Fundamental Trading, its like Playing POLO or GOLF, its meant for big people, who cant enter and exit easily without causing 2-3 percent movement in the market. I wouldnt suggest fundamental trading to newbies or small players.
SWING trading, I think thats the best of all forms, but then its best when played in Derivatives, because you get to buy at discount and sell at premium.

I am doing all type of trades but in fundamentally good company. Then which option to take. I use to trade for .05 paisa, I use to trade on breakouts, Sometimes if I think in 2-3 days stock can give good return I go for swing trading. But I follow charts for every decision along with news.
