Swing trading

Swing trading follow the concept of a trend. Basically a trend is set when there is for a down trend a lower high followed by a lower low, and up trend is a higher high and a higher low than the previous 'dip' they can run for long periods of time or in shorter time frames. They are great to trade like this STO swing trades. What you would do in a swing tradings situation is if you were short on STO as in this example you would keep moving your stop loss down to just above the previous high and just keep riding it down until you either wanted to close it or until the trend is broken when the high is broken and you would be stopped out.

Here is a perfect example with STO.
