A style of trading that is used to capture quick gains in a stock over a one- to four-day trading period. It is done to capitalize on the shortterm swings in the market. Investopedia explains Swing Trading Traders must make quick trading decisions to exploit these shortterm price swings in the stock market. This strategy often is used by retail day traders. Large institutions have trouble using this strategy because the size of their trades makes it prohibitive. Swing traders use technical analysis to look for stocks with short-term price momentum. Those traders are not interested in the fundamental or intrinsic value of stocks but in their price trends and patterns. As the saying goes, “Traders trade. Investors invest.” Related Terms: How to thank TFD for its existence? Tell a friend about us, add a link to this page, add the site to iGoogle, or visit webmaster's page for free fun content. |
