The Upstox Scalper Terminal operates strictly for intraday trading and is designed for traders who want to take advantage of rapid short-term price movements with speed of execution.

Because of its intraday trading-only configuration, none of the positions can be converted to overnight positions or be carried forward to the next trading day.

Intraday Focus of Scalper Positions

All trades on the Scalper Terminal are intended to be opened and closed during the same trading day. This suggests that traders are intended to take very quick entry and exit positions, without being exposed to overnight market risk, which is the very nature of scalping strategies.

Maximum Holding Time for Scalper Trades

In typical scalping, trades are held for extremely short periods of time, usually only a few seconds to a few minutes. The trader's objective is to profit on small price movements with minimal exposure and possibility of big price movements.

This fast execution is what clearly separates scalping from other trading formats and the Scalper Terminal is best suited for traders looking for a fast intraday trading environment.
