What is Swing Trading?
Swing trading is a short or medium-term trading strategy, anything from within a few days up to several weeks, in the commodity, cryptocurrency or other financial instrument. Traders will try to take advantage of price swings, which is the oscillations of a trending stock, whether upward or downward. They normally conduct some form of technical analysis, which they combine with some fundamental analysis so that they may time their trades more appropriately. It involves holding positions longer than day trading but shorter than long-term investing.
