Choosing a trading style based on our lives is very important. Everyone does not work the same way. Our lifestyle and our daily obligations should dictate the style we adopt and never the reverse.

SWING TRADING:

Swing trading is a trading style based on a execution-oriented by medium-term time frames. The swing trades are the ones that can be held for days, weeks or even months. They generally work on charts of 1h to 4 and daily and aim to capture a swing or a large market movement. This style of trading is ideal for people who have many responsibilities and limited time.

Usually swing traders are on the lookout for big profits.

DAY-TRADING / SCALPING:

Day-traders open and close their positions all in one day. They trade on time frames from a minute to an hour and are designed to capture market volatility. This makes them very busy in front of a computer, about 8-10 hours a day. They trade entire sessions, they are people that formed the mindset to work quickly.

This is the style of choice recommended for someone who wants to make money in a day, usually carrying even more than 3 trades per day.

However, this style of trading tends to create very bad habits among new traders. It usually generates impatience that tends to motivate you to increase the leverage making it very dangerous trading.

Usually scalpers hunt small profits: between 10 and 30 pips per trade.

Scalping is fast, if you like action and you like to focus on small time frames between 1 to 1 hours this style will suit you. However if you like control your thoughts and think with a cool head, it is best to stay away from that style.

Usually, when starting in trading, it’s suitable to start with swing trading.

Scalping is for very advanced traders with advanced mentalities.

We advise you to start trading in big time frames : h4-h1 DAILY

POSITION TRADING:

The position traders make trades from weeks to months. They work on graphics for a day and aim to capture the key trends that usually occur in the long term. This means that traders position must be in front of a screen for a few minutes a day, and operate a number of trades in the long term.
