What kind of trader are you? Tell us about your trading strategy? So what's your strategy when trading the markets? David Paul, Financial Trader and Managing Director - VectorVest U.K comments. PLEASE LIKE AND SHARE so we can do more! In the stock market I look to find companies that are making money, I want to buy undervalued companies that are aggressively growing their profits and are rising and I want to buy into those stocks when the general market is rising. I scan for stocks that are rising and reaching new highs but I'm very much careful about the general market. What kind of markets are you trading at the moment? I'm fully investing in the stock market - I trade currencies when I see opportunities - I've been short GBP/USD over several instances in the last 6 months. How much time do you spend analyzing the markets? In the stock market I do most of my analysis during the weekend - looking at fundamentals and trends - I have a system that monitors stop losses on that. In the forex markets I mostly trade on a 4-hour chart - do you class yourself as a swing trader or an intraday trader? I'm mostly a swing trader but if I have time I will look at shorter-term charts and trading opportunities. I like trading the FTSE in the morning and the Dow in the afternoon on a 30-minute chart. I resolve not to risk more than I planned.
