Some days the market moves like it’s in slow motion. On other days it feels like the candles are sprinting a 100-metre race.
Every trader eventually finds out which environment brings out the best in them.
Some love fast markets - quick reactions, tiny windows, that split-second thrill when everything lines up at once. Others prefer the calm: clear levels, time to think, no pressure to jump in just because the tape is moving.
And both styles say something about the trader behind the screen.
So what about you?
When volatility spikes and the screen turns into a blur, do you lean in because that’s where your edge is? Or do you step back and wait for the dust to settle?

Side note:
A lot of fast-market traders in the community often talk about tools that help them react instantly, notably like the Scalper Terminal by 5paisa, built for rapid execution when markets move quicker than expected. But at the end of the day, trading style > trading tools.
