Trading strategies can be divided into two types: fundamental and short-term. The fundamental principles of trading and investing are timeless, while specific strategies can come and go. Here are some of the fundamental strategies that traders have used over the years:
- Trend Following. One of the most popular trading strategies. The idea is to identify assets that are trending and trade in the direction of the trend. This can be achieved using various technical indicators like Moving Averages, MACD, and the ADX.
- Mean Reversion. This strategy is based on the idea that prices eventually revert back to their mean or average level after moving away from it. Tools like the RSI or Bollinger Bands can be used to identify overbought or oversold conditions.
- Momentum Trading. Traders look for assets that are showing strong momentum in a particular direction and aim to capitalize on this movement. Rate of change (ROC) or the Stochastic Oscillator can be useful for this.
- Swing Trading. This involves trying to capture price "swings" or short- to medium-term price movements. Swing traders use technical analysis to find assets with short-term price momentum.
- Breakout Trading. This strategy involves entering the market when the price moves beyond a certain level, expecting a continued movement in the same direction. Resistance and support levels, along with volume indicators, can be key for this approach.
- Position Trading. This is a longer-term strategy where traders hold positions for weeks, months, or even years, basing decisions on fundamental analysis more than short-term market movements.
- Quantitative Trading. This strategy uses mathematical models and computations to identify trading opportunities.
These were the basic strategies that worked for years and still work today. However, in addition to the basic algorithms, professional traders also use secret strategies that quickly become obsolete. It is better to learn about such strategies firsthand from leading traders.
Effective trading strategies in 2023 is one of the topics of the NEW TRADE SPHERE 2023 online conference. The conference will take place on August 27, 2023 (the last Sunday of August). It is starting at 13:30 UTC.
There will be 8 speakers and 8 topics in total. Grigorii Polezhaev, a trading expert and mentor, an expert in cryptocurrency trading and ICO investments, will tell about trading strategies in 2023. Since 2014, Grigory has been trading on the American stock market, and since 2017, on the cryptocurrency market. For most of his career he worked in trading desks. For all his trading time, he never traded with his own funds but worked only for the money of investors and prop companies (and succeeded).
The conference will be of interest to traders, investors, entrepreneurs, technology fans, as well as those who plan to develop in these areas.
NEW TRADE SPHERE 2023 will be available on YouTube in English, Russian, and Spanish. Participants from Eastern Europe, Central Asia, Southeast Asia, and Latin America will find this event especially interesting.
