Finding your comfort level in trading.

In comments,  Amarrdiip Kumaarr suggested that emphasis on swing trading could cause confusion in mind sof readers. He posted an article written in his blog which says that he is more comfortable with day trading.
Well, what I said was that in my tests (quite comprehensive, I assure you), swing trading makes more money while day trading does not respond well to automated trading. These are test results. The fact is that traders must find their own comfort levels. All kinds of trading is good if it is good enough for you. You really need to find your own comfort level.

Why does swing trading become troublesome at times? The answer lies in the nature of markets. Sometimes, markets are almost perfectly oriented towards swing trading. Sometimes they become volatile, almost random when the only method that makes money is intraday.

However, when you add up all the gains and the losses over a large period of time – my tests are from Janaury 1, 2007 to date, giving about four and a half years, swing trding makes most money.

No matter what trading method you follow, you have to understand that there will be times when the systems simply go out of sync with the current market.
