About this listen

Position trading can often be a good way for position traders to make a long-term position on stocks and assets. Consequently, taking a long-term position on an asset with all its seemingly great benefits also tends to have its own inherent risks. The trading strategy thus requires an in-depth knowledge of fundamental factors that can help influence prices over the long term, as well as a basic knowledge of technical timing models.

The main risk of position trading is the impact of minor fluctuations and the fact that they are commonly ignored. In the process, they can turn into a total trend reversal, leading to a significant loss or drawdown when the trader is guilty of failing to monitor positions or putting safeguards in place to secure their capital.

There are various trading techniques aside position trading, namely day, swing, scalping, etc. Trades are engaged based on research that indicates that a stock could start to trend, or chart pattern breakouts, as well as technical indicators, signaling the potential beginning of a trend or that a trend is underway.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

The author has done a great job in creating of this book. I really got much helpful information on all my questions. In a book titled, "Come Into My commercialism Room: an entire Guide to Trading" (2002), the renowned Dr. Alexander Elder uses his understanding of a stock's behavior on top of and below the baseline to explain the swing trader's strategy of "buying normalcy and merchandising mania" or the instances of "shorting normalcy and covering depression." Now, as soon as the swing trader has adopted the use of the EMA to spot the everyday baseline that occurs on the stock chart, he or she can attempt to go long right there at the baseline as soon as the stock starts heading up and vice-versa, going short at the baseline as soon as the stock is finding its way down. So, if you like the daily thrill and activities of the market, and you see yourself more as a professional trader, the more viable options for you will be either day trading or swing trading. Position trading isn’t for you. Of course, the reason is quite clear, as you will find yourself making far fewer trades and you won’t be heavily involved in the active trading on a steady note if you are a position trader. Therefore, if you’re looking to play a more active role in the trading process, you will have more success as a day trader or a swing trader.

The economic status of a country is a decisive factor when contemplating whether or not to take time and invest in its currency for a prolonged period. The downside is with an economy that is not steadfast, as this may result in social and political instability within the country. This potential risk gives room for an unattractive environment from a foreign investment perspective. This book is a great starting point for someone who is quite new to the topic. I learned a lot. Recommended!

I have read all, great and great knowledge

The tips, I found here are easily applicable alongside the different techniques that I can use it. Also there are strategies that are clearly illustrated to help to succeed in trading. You will need to adopt the use of both fundamental and technical analysis tools. With this, you will be able to spend valuable time exploring different facets of any particular asset while also determining whether it will produce the desired level of return or not. This will equip you properly before you decide to take a stance going forward with any position. Analytical tools such as the 200-day moving average as well as several other markers of long-term trends are the forms of analytical tools that you will find yourself employing in this trading sphere. Everything written in this book makes sense, definitely a good read! Highly recommend this book.

Each central bank of a country has a target inflation rate that they closely lookout for in order to achieve optimal economic growth and employment. A typical example can be seen in the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) located in the United States, which has a target inflation rate of 2 percent per year. The European Central Bank (ECB) also aims for an inflation rate a little below 2% each year, and this is set a mandate just for the medium term. This book is simply astounding! Love the models! It is a phenomenal quality. The pages are thick so nothing goes onto different pages. Many thanks to the author for giving us such a beautiful book.Awesome!!!

A swing trader, therefore, is best positioned during the stagnation of markets when indexes rise for a few days, then decline for the following few days, only to repeat this same general pattern all over again. A few months may pass with major stocks and indexes roughly at the initial place as their original levels. However, the swing trader has had several opportunities to catch the short-run movements up and down, i.e. sometimes inside a channel.

Position Trading, by William Bahl, is a quick listen that gives you a quick overview of the trading discipline.The majority of the book is appropriate for someone who is new to the area, with straightforward explanations and lots of background information; nevertheless, some portions and terms may require some prior knowledge or research on the part of the listener in order to completely absorb the material. Mr. Bahl narrates his own book with an appropriate speed and accent. Graphics are mentioned multiple times, but only briefly enough for the listener to get a sense of what they're seeing.

The book starts with a definition of shares and stocks, as well as the differences between common and preferred stocks and the varying degrees of service provided by different types of stock brokers. It rapidly moves on to a full explanation of position trading and its opportunity-targeting strategy. Mr. Bahl discusses some of the tactics and instruments utilized in position trading, as well as macroeconomic considerations such as inflation, interest rates, trade balance, and political and economic stability. He discusses some of the risks involved, as well as a thorough illustration of methods using a historical example involving the Euro and Ruble, as well as a list of characteristics that a position trader should possess.

Alternative methods to position trading are discussed in terms of their respective time horizons, with a focus on what distinguishes day and swing trading from position trading. Day traders can benefit from Bahl's strategies for leveraging market inefficiencies, as well as swing traders will benefit from extended time frames, fundamentals, and proper stock selection.

The final chapter is packed with useful material, including specifics on trade management tactics including trailing stops, scaling out, and break-even scenarios. Position trading appeals to some types of investors because of the advantages of the trading technique, such as trend capitalization, the ability to eliminate market noise, and the need for minimal maintenance. Bahl outlines time and activity requirements, as well as situations in which a position would be taken based on market conditions. Mr. William Bahl crams a lot of knowledge into a short amount of time. The knowledge in this book would be useful to a newer investor with some experience in investing or finance who wants to try out different trading strategies.

Everything about this book was great. Wished i had read it a couple of years ago when i opened my Robinhood account. The author hits every main point about beginner trading chapter by chapter and describers the main points in simple terms for the reader to understand. I took many notes. An investor can get his/her cash out of a brokerage account, but it will definitely not be as easy or immediate when compared with a regular savings account. This cash withdrawal often takes a few business days as the investors’ broker will need to sell off some securities that are equivalent to the required amount for withdrawal. However, if the investor intends taking it all out, either for a switch to another stockbroker or personal use, the investor will then very likely be charged a closing fee

Bahl's approach is laid out very clear and organized. There is a ton of information to be learned, and Bahl covers a ton of information; however, he does so in a way that is very methodical and friendly to follow along and digest. I went in to this book not knowing a single thing about the world of trading, and I came out feeling like this is something that is completely within my grasp.

When compared to an intraday style of trading, position trading is a somewhat free approach. As long as all the due process related to market entry has been completed, and an appropriate trade management strategy is in place, the sole task left is to frequently monitor the situation. The time allocation vital to position trading is limited, usually less than a day trading as well as a scalping methodology.
