Learn Swing Trading
Get a jumpstart on trading stocks!
On this website, you will learn swing trading techniques and strategies that will put you on the path to success. New to trading stocks? This website was created specifically for you!
But, learning how to swing trade stocks can be challenging without the knowledge necessary to succeed. The majority of traders fail and lose all their money in the first year!
They fail for these reasons:
- They do not have knowledge.
- They do not have a plan.
- They do not have discipline.
But this will not happen to you if you go through and read all of the information on this website. You need to have a plan and then develop the discipline to follow it. In the end, you will win where others have failed.
But, I'm getting ahead of myself...
What is Swing Trading?
Swing trading is a style of trading stocks that attempts to capture short term moves in the stock market. A swing trader typically holds a stock for 2 to 5 days. This is a perfect time frame for those that have a job and cannot "day trade". This time frame is also unique in that you can potentially capture explosive moves in a stock in a very short period of time.
As a swing trader...
You do not care about the fundamentals of a company.
You do not care what kind of products they sell.
You do not even care what the name of the company is.
You make trading decisions based on the laws of supply and demand - nothing else.
Here are the two things that you are interested in...
- Is there money flowing into this stock or is there money flowing out of this stock?
- How can I get into this stock with the least possible risk to my trading capital?
That’s it! You have be able to answer those two questions in order to be a profitable swing trader. Ok, let's get started:
How to Use This Website
This website is meant to be read in order! Start in the left column and work your way down through the pages. Here is a brief description of the 4 sections on Swing-Trade-Stocks.com:
Learn the Swing Trading Basics
In the first section, you will learn swing trading basics. These topics cover trends, price, volume, and strength. Without a solid understanding of how and why stocks move you really do not even have a chance. Sadly, I think many traders fall into this category.
Do not skip over this section!
There are many little "nuggets" of information contained in these pages that a lot of traders are unaware of. These basic swing trading tactics create the foundation for what is to follow.
Learn the Swing Trading Strategy
In the second section, you will learn my swing trading strategy using charts and technical analysis. You will learn how to trade pullbacks, market timing (yes, it is possible), and how to manage your money correctly so you don't end up like the majority of new traders - bankrupt!
Top Articles
In the third section, you will learn swing trading tips and tricks to put the icing on the cake. Read about Fibonacci retracements, how to trade gaps, and learn the tips and tricks for reading stock charts.
You can find more stock trading articles on this page.
Trading Reviews
In the last section, you can read some of my reviews of trading products and services that I like. I also have a store for traders where you can pick up any of your favorite books, dvd's and courses on trading stocks. Don't forget to check out the top 15 stock market books page to see a list of my favorite books.
If you are brand new to trading, then I strongly recommend the course, Trading Master Plan. This trading course will take you step by step and teach you just about everything you need to know about swing trading.
Read all the articles on this website and in that course and you will be light years ahead of where I was when I first started trading!
