Basics of trading
Almost all the traders come through hard passageways and have been honored as day trader, position trader as well as swing trader, and these titles are being considered tribute to them. Every trader has seen high and lows of trading business, it depends on their matrons and inspiration that they have followed in this business. A good trader can feel when he fits in it.
The biggest mistake that lot of brokers do is when they lost the time frame. It can throw you very back in your business. You can gain profit at any time when you see it but there are times when market itself tells you whether you should sell your stocks or hold them but over-confidence on one’s self can ruin one entirely. It can important to follow the markets lead in some situations and on specific times. Market gives you indications that what is going to happen next and people still do not follow it and get themselves hijacked, you not just lost your profits but your actual amount also get disappeared with it.
It is important to be a time frame specialist for this business. Its means that you should feel the upcoming changing in business, and should follow your instincts. It will be very bad if you will just ignore what market is telling you and move as you want.
The problem with being a “time frame specialist” is that it hold you back. While any time frame may earn you money, there are times when the market dictates which time frame is better. By not listening to the market and insisting instead on trading a specific time frame, you lose opportunities for profits and limit your success. A person can repeat his time frame strategy I he is willing to a little bit longer for great benefits and can go further than his perspectives.
The common time frame strategies are of three different kind and all three of them have same values and faults. These strategies are day, swing and position. You should move from one strategy to another if its fits with the situation at that time.
When traders hold their position for a very short time, they play with minutes and maximum hours not more than that is called day trader. They can be called scalper, active trader as well but the plan will be same to sell and purchase in same day. In this process people take small chances whether they get a profit of hundred dollars or thousand dollars they will close everything at the end of the day.
In swing trade people will hold their stocks for few days or for few weeks depend on the end required results. The good strategy is that you give and take right before the end of the day. People invest small amounts and get small benefits.
In position trading people hold their stock for long time without the thinking of the situation or they will keep selling them for small profits. Long waiting can give you big results but their chances will be fifty-fifty.
