#SwingTradingStrategy There are a lot of different swing trading strategies, so we decided to cover a couple of our favorites that are easy to understand and trade.
Introduction Swing trading is generally defined as a short-term trade that lasts more than a day and less than a month. While day traders typically seek to capture a piece of a more significant movement, swing traders try to capture an entire leg or swing up/down. Pros and Cons of Swing Trading Pros Takes Less Time
Swing traders can achieve reasonably similar returns to day traders in less time. Because their trades take days to develop, they are not required to sit at their screens, watching every tick go by.
Day traders, on the other hand, have to continuously monitor their trades as well as other markets to look for opportunities. Day traders require more labor per dollar earned and likely deal with more mental stress.
X is on the verge of becoming a super app: wallet, payments, trading, and investments #XSuperApp The social network X, owned by Elon Musk, is on its way to becoming a comprehensive platform that allows users to manage their money without leaving the app. This was confirmed by Linda Yaccarino, CEO of the company, in an interview with Financial Times.
The goal is to evolve into a "super app," similar to China's WeChat, that combines social functions with financial tools ranging from everyday payments to investments.
In this context, the executive explained that users will be able to pay for goods, make transfers, or invest, consolidating a commercial and financial ecosystem that has not existed until now.
X Money: Elon Musk's digital wallet
The company has already officially announced the development of X Money, a digital wallet that will also serve as a payment platform among users.
In this first stage, the project has the backing of Visa as a strategic partner. Its launch is scheduled for the last quarter of 2025 in the United States, with concrete plans for internationalization, according to the specialized site CriptoNoticias.
#PowellRemarks Speaking largely very well observed speech of the year, Jerome H. Powell, the chairman of the Federal Reserve, clearly indicated on Friday that the central bank was ready to cut interest rates in September.
And although Mr. Powell did not give a clear idea of how large that move might be, he strongly emphasized that the central bank is prepared to adjust policy to protect the labor market from further weakening and to keep the economy on a path toward a soft landing. "The time has come for policy to adjust," said Powell during the annual Fed conference in Kansas City at Jackson Hole in Wyoming. "The direction of travel is clear, and the timing and pace of rate cuts will depend on incoming data, the evolving outlook, and the balance of risks." Mr. Powell's speech was his firmest statement yet that the Fed is turning a corner in its fight against inflation. After more than a year of keeping interest rates at 5.3 percent, the highest level in more than two decades, officials finally have enough confidence to change their stance by cutting rates at their meeting on September 17-18. The Fed's impending decision on how much to cut interest rates — and how quickly to proceed with cuts after September — comes at a tense political moment. The central bank is poised to begin lowering interest rates just weeks before the November presidential elections.

#StablecoinPayments Stablecoins are a type of cryptocurrency whose value remains relatively stable as it is linked to an asset, such as the US dollar, gold, or a basket of assets. This makes them potentially more suitable for transactions and payments, as they reduce the volatility associated with other cryptocurrencies. Why are they useful for payments? Lower volatility: Unlike cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, which can fluctuate considerably, stablecoins maintain their value relatively stable, making them a more attractive option for payments. Speed and low cost: Transactions with stablecoins are usually quick and immediate, with much lower fees than traditional bank transfers.
#MarketRebound Stocks rise, dollar rebounds after Trump backs down on comments about the Fed The STOXX 600 of Europe rises; S&P 500 futures up 2.5% Dollar bounces as Trump says no plans to fire Powell Hopes for tariff relief from China, but no agreement yet SYDNEY/LONDON, April 23 (Reuters) - European stocks recovered on Wednesday as investors found some relief from U.S. President Donald Trump saying that he had no plans to fire the head of the Federal Reserve, and hinting at lower tariffs for China. The dollar initially jumped after Trump backed off his threats to dismiss Fed Chairman Jerome Powell, which had shaken investor confidence in U.S. assets, although most of those gains had faded by the time trading began in Europe. Trump also reiterated that he wanted to reach a deal with China, where tariffs would not be close to 145%, and added that he would set the terms of an agreement if Beijing did not enter into talks. The dollar rose as much as 1.1% against the Japanese yen, which has served as a major safe haven for anyone fleeing U.S. assets, before retreating to show a gain of 0.2% at 141.98, just above seven-month lows below 140.
#SaylorBTCPurchase Bitcoin rose on Tuesday, surpassing the $90,000 mark for the first time since early March.

Cryptocurrency prices in general also advanced on Tuesday, but gains remained limited. The world's largest cryptocurrency benefited from Strategy adding more Bitcoin to its treasury.
Bitcoin rose 2.2% to $90,087.0 at 10:10 AM (2:10 PM Spain time).
$TRX What is Tron (TRX)? Tron is a blockchain-based project that was launched in 2017. It was quite unique at the time, as it did not aim to announce any improvements related to cryptography or network design.
The basic building blocks of Tron, such as decentralized applications (dApps), smart contracts, tokens, or its delegated proof-of-stake consensus, were all pioneered in other projects. Although some criticized the lack of innovation in it, many approved of the use of already proven features instead of trying to build something new at any cost. This allowed for a greater focus on user experience, as well as design.
#TRXETF What is the cryptocurrency Tron (TRX) and how does it work? Although it has no relation to the Disney franchise of the same name, Tron is a decentralized blockchain platform that aims to revolutionize entertainment (similar to its namesake) as well as the exchange of digital content. Its native token, Tronix (TRX), increased its price by more than 200% in the last year.
The goal of Tron is to create a free and global digital content entertainment platform that offers the advantages of distributed storage technology while providing its users with an easy and profitable exchange of digital content.

$ETH The price of Ethereum was in a tight range this week as cryptocurrency investors remained on the sidelines and outflows from exchange-traded funds increased.
Ethereum Ethereum eth 1.63% Ethereum was trading at $1,580 on Friday, where it has remained throughout the week. It has increased by 14% since its low point this month.
Ethereum continues to face many challenges, especially the increasing competition from layer 2 networks like Base and Arbitrum Arbitro arb 3.67% Arbitrum. Other layer 1 networks like Sui Sui sui 2.13% Sui and Solana Solana sol 5.02% Solana have continued to gain market share in industries like decentralized finance and gaming.

#TrumpVsPowell Financial Panic Risk Tempering Trump in Shooting at Powell President Trump attacked the chair of the Federal Reserve again this week, but advisors say the president has become more cautious about policies that could reignite extreme financial volatility. President Trump revived a long-standing threat against Jerome H. Powell this week when he accused the Federal Reserve chairman of 'playing politics' and moving too slowly to lower interest rates. But in private, according to people close to Mr. Trump, the president has been aware for months that trying to oust Mr. Powell could inject more volatility into the nervous financial markets.
Investors are already uneasy after a tumultuous period due to a barrage of tariffs announced by the administration this month. Undermining the Fed's political independence, which is considered critical on Wall Street, could risk a much more significant financial panic.
