 4. Swing trading

Another strategy that many people use is called swing trading. This is where you hold your positions until the market trend or swing you are predicting runs its course or shows signs that it's reversing.

A swing trading strategy requires less time and attention than day trading, but you still also need to catch the trends, the moment they form. The extra time you are holding your position, may allow for a greater price shift, and therefore may result in higher profits than with day trading. Be careful though, as the price may swing the other way, or against you resulting in losses.
