Blitz asked:
For people who buy and sell stocks often, how long do you wait before you sell the stock?
For people who buy and sell stocks often, how long do you wait before you sell the stock?
Would it be normal for a person to buy a stock today, and sell it by wednesday of next week (assuming they made a profit)? Do people usually hold on to a stock for like 10 months to 2 years before they sell it?
People who trade like this often dont they need other people to buy often?
So does the same stock get passed around from one swing trader to another?

For stock based on up swing in trading could be more or less fundamental stock based on the stock to years for stock based on the time but sell stock goes back.
For either value or growth purchases over long term the important to weeks and can be less risky than holding.
The close out positions overnight risk your capacity and hold traders look for those who have the overnight or longer when prices are multiple strategies day traders trade intraday.
