What is swing trading?

Swing trading is a type of trading where positions are held for days or weeks to obtain short- and medium-term gains in financial securities. Swing traders use technical analysis to make trading decisions.

Most fundamentalists are swing traders, as changes in corporate fundamentals generally require little time to generate a price fluctuation sufficient to yield a reasonable profit. Swing trading is positioned between day trading and trend trading.

Day trading usually results in very short holding periods, less than a day. The profit per transaction is usually the lowest.

Swing trading typically results in short or medium holding periods. The profit per transaction is greater than that of day trading but less than that of trend trading.

Trend trading usually results in longer holding periods. Due to the low transaction volume, profits can be maximized per position.
