Most people have some familiarity with "normal" stock investing. It's a good idea to buy a mix of equities; better yet, make an exchange-traded fund or mutual fund investment. To augment your income after retirement, you might start taking small withdrawals from your stocks. People are also familiar with day trading. But most people view day trading in a cartoonish way, believing it to be some kind of scam or get-rich-quick scheme where you try to make tens of thousands of dollars in a few hours.
That's not quite true; although it entails a larger level of risk than making long-term stock purchases, day trading is a systematic and scientific approach to benefit from stock trades. It does, however, require far more time, knowledge, and work than most people can or will commit to their investing ventures. Most people don't know about swing trading, which is a fantastic compromise between these two possible methods to the stock market.
By letting you hold onto stocks for a few days or even months, you can still profit from some of the longer-term gains linked to high-quality stocks and some of the advantages enjoyed by day traders. This offers a sort of middle ground between long-term investing and day trading. Swing trading is actually a safer way to "play" the markets because swing traders often make a lot more money than day traders.
Unlike day trading, swing trading is often possible without capital restrictions or government control. In this book, we will provide you an introduction to swing trading and talk about swing trading with options. Even the "average Joe" is not familiar with this approach to investing. We'll go through what options are, how to use the leverage they provide to boost earnings, and how to get an amazing return on investment.
