Scalper

Tax Glossary Definition

Scalper

Scalping is a high-speed trading technique where traders seek to capture very small price fluctuations in assets such as equities, currencies, or derivatives. Known as scalpers, these traders typically rely on large trade volumes and quick executions, often entering and exiting positions within seconds or a few minutes, to accumulate modest but consistent profits throughout the day.

Example: A trader might purchase a stock at ₹100.10 and sell it at ₹100.20 several times during the trading session, aiming to profit from each minimal movement in price.
