Swing trading and position trading are medium- to long-term trading styles. Swing trading involves holding a position for a few days to weeks, aiming to capture short- to mid-term market movements. Traders rely heavily on technical analysis, chart patterns, and indicators to identify entry/exit points. They avoid overnight risk and often follow trends or trade reversals. Position trading, on the other hand, is a longer-term strategy where positions are held for weeks to months. This style focuses more on macroeconomic trends, fundamentals, and major technical levels. Position traders ignore short-term volatility and often ride large trends using smaller position sizes. While swing trading demands regular monitoring and faster execution, position trading requires patience and a higher capital base. Both styles require solid risk management. Swing trading offers more frequent opportunities and faster returns, while position trading builds wealth more slowly but steadily. Your style should depend on your risk appetite, capital, and time availability.
