Tackle Today: Swing Trading 101 | Tackle Trading
≈ Do you have a detailed trading plan? ≈
How simple is your trading plan? How detailed is it?
Many traders prefer simplicity when executing a trade. They build rules and skills to be able to identify their Entry trigger, 1st Target, 2nd Target, Stop Loss and Position sizing.
If you can answer these questions, you can build a trading plan.
- Where will you buy, and why?
- Where will you take profits?
- Where will you cut your loss?
- How much will you risk?
When you are new, it’s easy to get swept up into complexity, but we advise you to keep it simple, learn the basics and start trading with a disciplined plan. You’ll be better off for it, and then, when you are using more complex systems you still have the foundations of trade entry, exit and sizing built.
This Wednesday night, we will be holding a special Mastermind group, free to all, to learn how to build a swing trade. We’re calling it ‘Swing Trading 101’. You will need to register with your email on the following page, if you’d like to attend and learn.
