There are several styles of stock trading using various types of operators used. There is no better style, but each suits the needs of the trader and the situation. Here are some of the most common species on the market. In general, there are four basic types of trading. These are swing trading, trend trading, momentum trading and scalping. and I am an intraday trader. I don't think I am compatible with the scalping method, because it is too risky for me. besides, I don't have time to be in front of a computer for a full day. Swing is not suitable for me because I want to make it faster to be a lot faster. My choice finally fell into intraday because I was able to profit quickly with a relatively lower risk.
