Description

Learn how to maximize profits and minimize risks trading over the short term

Swing Trading For Dummies introduces you to a trading methodology designed to generate big profits in the short term. Unlike buy and hold investing, Swing Traders endeavor to enter a stock at the precise moment a major uptrend begins and exit for a large profit a few weeks or months later. In order to achieve this result, Swing Trading For Dummies covers the tools you need to get up and running as a trader before moving on to the two main analysis techniques swing traders rely upon: technical analysis and fundamental analysis. These two analysis techniques can be combined to maximize the chances of a successful trade. But no one is perfect, and the savvy swing trader must have a comprehensive risk management plan to deal with trades that fail to launch. New in this update to Swing Trading for Dummies is material on the types of positive catalysts a trader should look for to enter a trade, the best way to trade earnings reports, swing trading cryptocurrencies and why you should avoid investing in banking stocks.

  • Learn how swing trading can generate profits in a short period of time
  • Identify the most attractive opportunities and when to buy them
  • Avoid the common mistakes that sink many novices
  • Manage risk and set yourself up for success

For new and seasoned investors looking for a comprehensive and trusted reference on swing trading, this Dummies guide is the perfect solution.
