Default Re: What are traders?

A trader is generally someone who is looking to take advantage of short term price changes (or lack thereof).

The specific type of trader in the broad trader category can be defined by the specific time frame (scalp, day, swing, etc) they are looking at, and other factors, including what specifically is being traded (stock, option, futures, commodity, etc)
