- Swing Trading combines the best of two worlds --
the slower pace of investing and the increased
potential gains of day trading.
- Swing Trading works well for part-time traders —
especially those doing it while at work. While day
traders typically have to stay glued to their
computers for hours at a time, feverishly watching
minute-to-minute changes in quotes, swing trading
doesn't require that type of focus and dedication.
- While Day Traders gamble on stocks popping or
falling by fractions of points, Swing Traders try to
ride "swings" in the market. Swing Traders buy fewer
stocks and aim for bigger gains, they pay lower
brokerage and, theoretically, have a better chance
of earning larger gains.
- With day trading, the only person getting rich is the broker. "Swing traders go for the meat of the move while a day trader just gets scraps." Furthermore, to swing trade, you don't need sophisticated computer hook-ups or lightning quick execution services and you don't have to play extremely volatile stocks.

Swing Trading ... 2
- The basic
strategy of Swing Trading is to jump into a strongly
trending stock after its period of consolidation or
correction is complete.
- Strongly trending
stocks often make a quick move after completing its
correction which one can profit from.
- One then sells
the stock after 2 to 7 days for a 5-25% move. This
process can be repeated over and over again. One can
also play the short side by shorting stocks that
fall through support levels.
- In brief a Swing Trader's goal is to make money by capturing the quick moves that stocks make in their life span, and at the same time controlling their risk by proper money management techniques.

Swing Trading
What is swing Trading? To be honest, I was baffled too when I first heard the term. Swing Trading takes advantage of brief price swings in strongly trending stocks to ride the momentum in the direction of the trend. Swing trading combines the best of two worlds - the slower pace of investing and the increased potential gains of day trading. Swing traders hold stocks for days or weeks playing the general upward or downward trends.
Swing Trading is not high-speed day trading. Some people call it momentum investing, because you only hold positions that are making major moves. By rolling your money over rapidly through short term gains you can quickly build up your equity.

The minimum deposit amount is Rs. 1,000/- and deposits can be made in multiples of Rs. 100/-.
