Key Takeaways
Scalping (or scalp trading) is a short-term trading strategy focused on making quick profits from small price movements, often through dozens or even hundreds of trades a day.

Over time, these small wins can add up—especially when executed with precision and discipline. Success in scalping depends on fast execution, technical analysis, and access to real-time data.

Scalp trading strategies demand constant attention, mental stamina, and strict risk management. Less-experienced traders may benefit from testing their strategies through paper trading before risking real funds.

Newton Protocol (NEWT) is a decentralized protocol designed to provide an open, permissionless, and programmable compute layer for the Internet.

The project introduces a global registry of computing services, allowing users and developers to discover, access, and compose computational resources in a trustless manner.

Its architecture enables a variety of use cases, including decentralized finance (DeFi), AI, batch computing, privacy-preserving workflows, and more.

Newton Protocol aims to make accessible computation a public utility, much like how blockchain democratized public data infrastructure.
