Scalping, oh this scalping! You know, I once tried to engage in this madness, and I'll tell you - it's not for the faint-hearted.

Imagine this: you sit in front of the monitor, your eyes red from lack of sleep, your fingers trembling on the "buy/sell" button. And then - bang! The price jumps up by half a percent. You press the button like a scalded cat, hoping to snag your pitiful pennies. And a second later, the price falls back down, and you end up in the red. And this happens a hundred times a day!

Of course, some people are lucky. I know one such "genius" who supposedly made millions from scalping. But between us, I'm sure he just happened to be in the right market at the right time. And then he inflated a whole legend about his infallibility from that.

In fact, most scalpers end up losing their deposits. After all, it's pure gambling! You're trying to guess which way the price will move in the next second. It's like playing roulette, only instead of a ball - it's the chart on the screen.

And you know what the funniest thing is? These exchanges are not fools either. They deliberately tweak their algorithms to squeeze more fees out of scalpers. And those are more than happy to try, hoping for easy money.

In general, my friends, if you want to lose money and nerves - go ahead, try scalping. But if you really want to earn, it's better to find a normal job or engage in long-term investing. At least you will sleep more peacefully.
