    What is the duration for positional trading? How is it different from swing trading?

    Are we considering long positions in fundamentally good companies and entry opportunities from technical charts?

    I still need to get clarity on which stocks to keep for multi year and others for few % returns.

    Both are based on intermediate trends but positional traders use fundamental analysis to select the right stocks and use the technical analysis to but at the right price. Swing traders positions are based purely on the technicals.
    Yes. That is what I prefer. I trade or invest in the same good companies that satisfy my investment checklist and then fundamental analysis.

    Thanks for your response.
    For any positional trades, after satisfying fundamental screens, I use weekly charts, macd, rsi, Bollinger bands and fibonacci retracement. Mostly I use combination of total loss or % loss for my position sizing.
