Trading Different Time Frames - Day Trading vs. Swing Trading vs. Investing

When starting to trade, it is required to decide which time frame you would like to trade. When you hear of people "investing in the stock market" (such as a retirement account), this is most likely long-term investing. However, many people are starting to utilize short-term trading, such as day trading and swing trading, as a source of income or even a hobby. In this article, we will explore how to decide which time frame is best for you and how to do so efficiently. Long-Term Investing Long-Term Investing is the most common type of investing in the stock market and usually is any investment over 6 months. The main purpose for long-term investing is for growth and does not require much attention.

What are Volume & Float?

Volume and float are two of the most important terms you must know when trading a stock. Volume is the specific amount of shares being traded in a given day or moment. Volume is very important because it allows you the liquidity to be able to buy and sell shares when needed. Without a high volume, buy/sell orders may be executed but temporarily not filled. This means that the order will not go through until there are shares ready to be traded. Float is the total number of shares of a company that are available for people to trade.

An example of high volatility could be as such: if a stock’s float is 50 million and its volume is 5 million then that is 10% of th...

What is the RSI & How Do You Use It?

A stock’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) is used to compare a stock’s current price to its previous prices. This can be used to determine if a stock is overbought or oversold, or essentially expensive or cheap. If a stock’s RSI is overbought then it is considered expensive and if a stock’s RSI is oversold then it is considered cheap. How to Read the RSI As you can see, whenever the RSI passes below 30, it is considered oversold and when it passes over 70 then it is considered overbought. The RSI indicator can help determine when a stock is good to buy as well as the general direction a stock price is moving compared to its last price. Remember even though a stock’s RSI is under 30, you should not always buy. It is important to look further into other technical indicators to determine if you should execute an order. The RSI can have trend lines just like candlesticks can. In the case above, it looks like the RSI has a li...
