Swing trading or scalping

[JohanVenter]

What is the lower risk option between swing trading and scalping?

ideally swing trading has longer hold time but better chances of working out. proper risk management and knowing your limits always plays a factor into trading methods

Swing trading is good and less risky if you're happy to not trade all the time

In my opinion, neither of them are that good. Day trading is the best way to go, and just trade straight price action and nothing else.

Swing trading can be hard to learn, cause it takes long for the trade to come in to play, possibly days or weeks, and then once you open the trade, it could also take days for it to hit tp/sl. So point is as a beginner you will lose patience and not only that, but it will take longer to learn cause of the amount of waiting you do instead of actually day trading.

i am a scalper and this works very well. I rarely do swing trades

both of them is good i think, it just how to make more profitable for long and short term

I think it just depends on your discipline. You can become very profitable with scalping if you are just in and out of the market. What helps me is setting a TP.

I agree I like to capture as mush of the trend as possible.
