Ok, gotcha. We agreed even though I did not clearly specify the levels.

Daytrader: 1-12 trades per day
Scalper: 13-100 trades per day
Hyper Scalper - 101+ trades per day

That's assuming you quantify the classification based on the amount of trades being done. I think that's fair criteria and sounds like walter does not. No one is right, I was just wondering what everyone thought.

If I make 7 small trades... I already consider myself scalper... its my case... because the span of the trade its really small I dont think I am using "daytraders" techniques at all... I deserve to be called a scalper even thought I dont make that "much" amount of trades....
