Using Swing Trading Strategies in CFD Markets

Sat, 08 Nov 2025 18:25:14 +0000

Swing trading in CFD involves capturing short- to medium-term price movements that usually span from a few days to a few weeks. In practice, swing traders might buy a CFD near a short-term low and sell it near the next high. For example, unlike day trading (which makes many trades per day, closing all positions by market close), swing vs day trading CFDs involves holding trades overnight and for multiple days. And unlike position trading (where trends are followed for months), swing trading targets shorter-term gains. This strategy blends aspects of trend-following and range-trading, making it ideal for those who want active engagement but not the intensity of day trading.
