The four trader profiles
- The Scalper — captures tiny moves many times a day; needs the lowest fees and fastest execution.
- The Day Trader — trades intraday and closes out by the bell; lives on momentum and tight risk control.
- The Swing Trader — rides multi-day to multi-week moves; balances chart setups with life off-screen.
- The Position Trader — thinks in months and trends; leans on fundamentals and the big picture.
Most traders lean toward one style but borrow from others as markets change. Use your result as a starting point, not a label.
