Swing Trading
Citadels Market has been sharing financial freedom with traders since 2014 — continuously improving the platform so traders can enjoy the freedom to trade whenever and wherever they like.
Swing Trading
Swing trading is one of the most popular forms of active stock trading, where traders look for intermediate-term opportunities using various forms of technical analysis.
Swing trading is a style of trading that attempts to capture short- to medium-term gains in a stock over a period of a few days to several weeks. Swing traders primarily use technical analysis to identify trading opportunities in equity markets.
Many swing traders assess stock trades on a risk/reward basis. By analysing the chart of a stock, they determine where they will enter, where they will place a stop-loss order, and then anticipate where they can exit with a profit.
Pros and Cons
Pros
Swing trading requires less time to trade than day trading.
It maximises short-term profit potential by capturing the bulk of market swings in individual stocks.
Swing traders can rely exclusively on technical analysis, simplifying the trading process.
Cons
Swing trade positions are subject to overnight and weekend stock market risk.
Abrupt market reversals can result in substantial losses on equity positions.
Swing traders often miss longer-term trends in favour of short-term stock price moves.
Swing Trading Tactics
A swing trader tends to look for multiday stock chart patterns. Some of the more common patterns involve moving average crossovers, cup and handle patterns, head and shoulders patterns, flags, and triangles in equity price action.
Ultimately, each swing trader devises a plan and strategy that gives them an edge across many trades. With a favourable risk/reward, winning every trade is not required. The more favourable the risk/reward of a trading strategy, the fewer times it needs to win to produce an overall profit.
