"Time is my ally; noise is my enemy."
You view trading as acquiring assets at a discount. You analyze macro data (CPI, NFP) and fundamental valuations. You ignore intraday noise, focusing instead on holding positions for weeks or months to capture the true fundamental shift.
High quality of life. You don't need to stare at charts all day. Your fundamental conviction allows you to sleep soundly through pullbacks.
Value Traps. Sometimes you buy an asset because it is 'cheap', but it stays cheap for years, locking up your capital in a dead trade.
Overnight & Weekend Holding Restrictions. Evaluation accounts often prohibit weekend/overnight holding or impose high swap fee rollover drag, forcing premature liquidation of swing setups.
Select swing-friendly evaluation programs (e.g., FTMO Swing account) or synthesize swing bias into intraday session execution blocks (4-hour session momentum) without overnight exposure.
