📊 #SwingTradingStrategy – Catch the Waves, Not the Noise 📊
Swing trading is all about capturing short- to medium-term moves in the market — perfect for traders who don’t want to stare at charts all day, but still want to ride meaningful price swings.
🔍 Core Elements of a Solid Swing Strategy:
1️⃣ Trend Confirmation
➡️ Use moving averages (like 50 EMA & 200 EMA) to identify bullish or bearish structure
📈 Trade with the trend, not against it
2️⃣ Support & Resistance Zones
📍 Map out key areas where price reacts — enter near support, exit near resistance (and vice versa)
3️⃣ Entry Triggers
🎯 Look for price action signals:
Bullish engulfing candle
Break and retest
RSI crossing 50 or bouncing from oversold/overbought
4️⃣ Risk Management
📏 Use a risk-reward ratio of at least 1:2
🔒 Stop-loss just below support (for longs) or above resistance (for shorts)
5️⃣ Hold Time
🕒 Trades typically last from a few days to a couple of weeks
💡 Don’t panic over intraday noise — the goal is to catch “the meat” of the move
