Probably one of the hardest part of stock trading is knowing when to sell. How do you know when a stock has reached its potential? What happens if you hold too long? Everybody has their own ways of selling a stock. This latest video shares how I exit a stock.
Specifically, I am talking about more active trades or stocks that I am only holding for a couple days or less. For longer stock holdings, I use a specific price target where I exit, once price is hit.
There are many ways traders determine when it is time to sell a stock. Some use a trailing stop , while others use the specific price target. In this video, I show you how I exited out of my Crocs (CROX) shares by constantly moving stops up and measuring a stock’s momentum.
