I highly recommend anyone that is interested in trading to adopt the swing trading style because not only does it give you more freedom but since the trades you place are on the higher timeframes; thus, the trends are more important, you tend to have a much higher win to loss ratio. While as a day trader, you trade the ups and downs that happens in the market within a day and within the actual longer time frames. A swing trader may place about 3 to 5 trades in a given month while a day trader may place at least 5 times as much if not more. You must understand that trading the long-term trend is safer and holds higher probability of success than trying to profit from the ups and downs the market makes within a day. However, it is up to personal preferences and you may try both to figure out the one that works better for you.
