Swing Trade

Swing Trading refers to a speculative, short-term type of trading, that attempts to capture gains in a financial instrument (stocks, options contracts, futures contracts, currencies) within a timeframe that can range from one day to two weeks.

Swing traders rely on technical analysis and indicators to look for short-term price momentum.
