#1 skill needed: "Can you type fast w/o looking at keyboard?" Yes, this is what a soes bandit asked me when discussing getting into trading. Scalping has become a competetive type of trading, and will exponentially become moreso as the masses flood into daytrading. If your slow, forget it, by the time you're in, the trade is over, but hopefully its gone in your direction. But if you're doing this often, then youre just getting lucky, and not really playing market maker, which is the point of scalping.
