My entry plan ideas:

Today’s Swing Trade Idea

BLOX (Technology Sector Communication Equipment) Yesterday confirmed a Bullish Engulf closing over the T-Line and the 20 day simple moving average in Our Rounded Bottom Breakout chart pattern.

There are many different types of investing, including swing trading, scalp trading, day trading, and long-term investing, but your preferred method will depend on how you like to play the game. Do you want to stick with the same trade for years or even decades at a time? Or would you prefer to bounce from trade to trade, profiting from smaller swings in the market?

Today we’re focusing on just two methods, comparing swing trading vs. long-term investing, so that you can decide how you want to trade.
