Zero.

Do not get me wrong because I scalp the market as well but my best trading day, I should say week(s), do not happen as a result of scalping. If I see something where I think I can pick up a quick 10--20 Pips then I pull the trigger. But for the most part it usually takes several days for my trades to hit my targets or the dreaded SL.

The most trades I've made in a day was around 90 trades, from 930-around 2pm.

I lost 2700 dollars! But the plus side was 2970 dollars..(200ish net P) crap numbers! But I ended in the plus for the day... I was trying out a scalping strategy, (low stops, and PT's) and have yet to try it again..

I trade on the futures market, and for the amount of profit I gained, for the effort and commish', I can't see making that many trades worth while....there just aren't that many good high probability set ups (to me) to justify doing so.

No scalp means a fast trade .. that day i made around 700 clear pips
Its quiet extreme, thats true, but i done it.

At average i trade around 10 - 20 scalps, with avg 5 - 10 pips profit.

It takes some time, to become a master of scalping. Once i recognize, that the market is in rally mode, its possible to make around 10 scalps a minute with 5 pips profit, but its true, its not everyday ...

335 in one day. Is that from manual trading? I've been far beyond that in a day but that's with expert advisors. 335 in a day with manual trading is a lot of hard work.
