Forex success depends on several key strategies. First, choose a reliable broker with strong spreads and fast execution speed. Focus on two liquid currencies to maximize trading opportunities. Maintain discipline by developing a trading plan and avoiding emotional judgments in addition to implementing a strict risk management strategy, which includes using predetermined lot sizes based on estimated size and risk capability based on well established stop loss orders. Regularly adapt your strategies to market conditions and be prepared to accept losses as part of the trading process.

Opt for liquid currency pairs, utilize short-term charts, maintain strict discipline in executing trades, and prioritize small, frequent gains while minimizing losses.

For scalpers, the most important thing is the trading conditions provided by the broker. And in order to make profitable and more profitable transactions, you need minimal spreads, instant execution of transactions and a stable terminal operation. Based on these conditions, I chose FXOpen; it is very convenient to trade when conditions are not annoying. True, I would like the profits to be withdrawn faster, ideally automatically.

Yes, scalping also depends on the trading conditions provided by the broker, some brokers may prohibit scalping because this is trading which can trigger high-frequency trading, which may overload the broker's server so that it becomes slow. Choosing a reliable broker is very important for scalping trading.
