I discovered swing trading almost by accident. I was knee-deep in scalping when a huge 4H candle flashed on BTC, and I thought, “Why not hold for days instead of minutes?”
Since then my routine is simple:
- I mark weekly pivots on Sundays
- I scan for a 4H pullback into those zones
- If RSI dips below 40 and crosses back above, I enter with a 2× risk/reward target
This shift eased the stress. Instead of frantic screen-watching, I check in every few hours and let winners run.
