What is Swing Trading?
Swing trading is a style of trading stocks that attempts to
capture short term moves in the stock market. A swing trader
typically holds a stock for 2 to 5 days. This is a perfect time
frame for those that have a job and cannot "day trade". This
time frame is also unique in that you can potentially
capture explosive moves in a stock in a very short period
of time.
As a swing trader...
You do not care about the fundamentals of a company.
You do not care what kind of products they sell.
You do not even care what the name of the company is.
You make trading decisions based on the laws of supply and
demand - nothing else.
Here are the two things that you are interested in...
- Is there money flowing into this stock or is there money
flowing out of this stock?
- How can I get into this stock with the least possible
risk to my trading capital?
That’s it! You have be able to answer those two questions in
order to be a profitable swing trader. Ok, let's get started:
