Scalp Trade: A style of trading that is designed to capitalize on small moves, using price setups that present exceptionally low risk opportunities. The typical objective for a scalp trade is 1/4 to a 5/8 or more. Scalping demands a familiarity with Level 2 as well as the use of a direct access system such as Mastertrader ( http://www.mastertrader.com/ ) for instant order execution. The best scalping opportunities are found in liquid stocks (trading 500k or more shares a day) with quality market maker representation. Pristine Scalp setups are typically found using charts in smaller intra-day timeframes such as a 2-, 5- and 15-minutes.

Day Trade: Conventionally speaking, a day trade is a position initiated and closed out in the same trading session. In Pristine's Real-time Trading Room, a day trade is an opportunity with the potential to become an overnight (o/n) and/or develop into a swing trade, but because it occurs early in the day, it is typically treated more aggressively in terms of locking in partial or complete profits. Day trades also typically employ tighter stops than the average swing trade does. We have found that the best day trades usually have "room to run," with resistance being far enough away to warrant holding through a brief pullback or period of consolidation if necessary. Day trades are typically found using intraday charts with medium length timeframes such as a 15-minute or hourly chart.

Overnight Trade: An overnight trade is typically a position entered late in the day in a stock which is closing at or near its high (or low, for shorts) with the potential to gap up or see follow-through the next morning. As mentioned above, an overnight can also start as a day trade that closes strong enough to warrant holding past the close and into the following day. Overnights are frequently closed out in the early going of the following morning (if not right at or before the open) with some traders opting to sell only half, with the remaining half held for a longer period and a potentially larger price gain.

Swing Trade: A swing trade is one that is entered with the idea of profiting from the natural ebb and flow of a stock's daily movements. Swing trades are usually initiated in an area of significant support (or resistance, for shorts), and seek to capture between $1 to $4 in profits, depending on the situation. Typically held for a period of two to five (or more) days, swing trades take advantage of a very profitable market niche overlooked by most active investors. Too brief for large institutional concerns to take advantage of and, at the same time, too lengthy for floor traders (who typically don't hold positions overnight) to be comfortable with, this time frame offers the perfect opportunity for independent traders who possess the expertise necessary to profitably exploit it. Swing trades are found primarily using daily (and weekly) charts, with occasional reference to a 15-minute chart as well.

Core Trade: A Core Trade is a longer-term style that seeks to take advantage of an extended market move, typically on the long side. Looking beyond the usual two to five day objective of the swing trade, a core trade is often held for weeks if not months. Exiting a core position could be based on either the market signaling that it is time to cut back our exposure, or the stock itself experiencing a technically bearish breakdown such as a weekly reversal candlestick or violation of a significant moving average. Because of the very different mindset involved in managing core trades, it is recommended that traders keep a separate account.
