Swing traders buy stocks for a couple of days before selling them for profits when the price has increased. This is the aim in the end. If this is something you’re interested in, the best way to get started is to quickly pick the most appropriate stocks to invest in the beginning. Consider first the large-cap stocks since they have a lot of shares that change in the blink of an eye which makes them simple to purchase and sell fast.
In the same way, liquidity is an important element to look at when looking for potential swing trading candidates.
How to Choose Swing Stocks
Then, look for stocks that are relatively stable and don’t have extreme fluctuation. Don’t look for huge moves. Look to buy stocks with a trend that is either way and with constant price actions and with no excitement. It is your goal to earn a living instead of making a profit.
Three stocks were chosen for the reasons of their liquidity and their steady price movement. Begin following these stocks and making small trades on paper. After that, you can move on to real-time trades using real dollars. Train yourself to be aware of the indications that indicate what time to purchase and the best time to sell, but first, learn how to buy shares and remember that market conditions change frequently and the strategy that worked in the past might not always yield profits in the future.
Microsoft Corp.
You can also trade Microsoft ( MSFT) shares in the same way you trade Facebook. It is true that the 50-day moving average acts as a rough guideline to the low trendline, but not quite as well as Facebook’s. The upper trendline is somewhat ragged, and this is an excellent opportunity to discover the sense of the times when the stock will be able to increase and decrease.
But, the stock is trending consistently enough to be able to be sure to remain in the same pattern for a while, and you can learn to set your sell and buy points frequently. Draw a line along the highs to find the approximate amount you need to sell. Keep in mind that the longer the trendline the more likely the likelihood that the line is correct. Around 24 million shares were sold and bought every day until April 2020.
Facebook
Facebook ( FB) is a fantastic option for those who want to learn to invest in trends. If you take a look at the graph of the stock it is evident that when the stock rises up, the low points in the pattern are all aligned. It is possible to sketch an approximate line between the lowest points. This can be the lowest trend line. Each time the stock crosses that line, it moves up and up.
The reason this stock is beneficial, to begin with, is the fact that the top trend line has been pre-drawn for you. Be sure to show the 50-day moving mean. This is the lowest trend line of this stock at the present date.
Similar to drawing the trend line along with the highest points the stock reaches. When Facebook gets to that higher trend line, it’s likely to fall back to its lowest trend line. Be aware that these lines are not exact. It is important to learn the ability to recognize when the price of the stock is set to change, and not depend on a strict adhesion to the line you’ve drawn.
Around 16.3 million shares were traded every day in April 2020. This means it’s simple to locate both buyers and sellers.2 This signifies that the stocks are liquid, and you’re likely to not be trapped should they begin to decline.
Apple Inc.
The shares from Apple Inc. ( AAPL) require more care than MSFT and Facebook. The stock is rising and is a good opportunity to learn how to make money by trading the news. Apple has a variety of product announcements and launches that affect the value of the stock. Be on the lookout for these announcements and observe how the stock reacts. This is an added factor to your trading swing. You can observe the technological indicators on the charts and then combine the data together with the basics of the firm to assist you in timing your trades. More than 24 million shares are sold and bought every day, until April 2020.4
Final Words
For those who are looking to start your swing trading journey, it’s simpler for yourself by selecting stocks that are consistent in displaying well-established charts. Most commonly, large-cap stocks with adequate liquidity, such as MSFT, FB, and AAPL are great locations to begin. Then, you can begin making forecasts about the peak and valleys of the charts and you may soon be in the flow of swing trading.

Fancy a new bluetooth speaker that has an IPX7 rating which means you can take it to the beach and more well this one should be on your radar from Tronsmart with their new Splash 1. With Bluetooth 5.0 that offers a stable connection and also quite cool is the lighting effects on it. With a solid built too this is quite robust and will last and also can take a beating if dropped.
Unlike the Studio wireless recently reviewed here this is made with plastic all round with a fabric coating on top akin to a larger google home mini design it feels robust in the had and built to last with a lanyard to strap to your wrist or around your neck or whatever suits which makes it very portable.
Controls are very simple here and placed on top with raised rubber keys and easy to perform the task at hand, you can skip and reverse tracks, play and pause music too and also take calls on the fly with this speaker which makes for a clear conversation. There is no app support here like you would find in some of their products but overall the sound is quite good with a nice touch of bass thrown in and all other aspects of the audio quality is quite good and well balanced so you will not be disappointed.
Check out the video below for more on the speaker and how the controls work and if you have any questions as always you know what to do..

Fairphone 4 offers an unprecedented five-year warranty, is a unique electronic waste-neutral handset and contains fairly sourced materials, challenging the electronics industry to take a more responsible approach.
Dutch social enterprise Fairphone is proud to announce the launch of its latest device, Fairphone 4 5G, demonstrating that it is possible to place sustainability at the heart of the latest consumer technology. With today’s launch, Fairphone introduces the world’s first modular 5G smartphone that is also a more sustainable, repairable and socially responsible device. The smartphone is the next phase in the company’s journey to develop fair, long-lasting, high-quality devices and establish a market for ethical and fair electronics.
With the launch of Fairphone 4, the company is applying the lessons it has learnt from previous phones to a device with 5G support and new features that provide additional benefits for users. The smartphone is the sustainable choice for customers who don’t want to compromise on the latest technology. Fairphone is raising the bar for itself and the industry by introducing a five-year warranty at no additional cost, to encourage people to use — and enjoy — their phones for longer. This is an unrivalled commitment in the electronics sector and is an addition to Fairphone guaranteeing long-term availability of spare parts, combined with software support. For Fairphone 4, software support is guaranteed until the end of 2025 and includes upgrades to Android 12 and Android 13, but the company aims to extend it even further, until the end of 2027, with upgrades to Android 14 and Android 15 despite support from the chipset supplier expiring. With this unparalleled ambition, Fairphone is aiming to repeat what it succeeded in doing with a previous model: six years of software support from the launch of an Android device.
Eva Gouwens, CEO of Fairphone, outlines the company’s goals for Fairphone 4, stating:
“We’re taking a completely different approach to manufacturing smartphones — we’re changing the way devices are made and used. We want to challenge the traditional way of designing devices, including the notion that thinner is better. The starting point in development was to produce a premium sustainable smartphone that is future-proof, easily repairable, designed to last and therefore more circular and fair. We want Fairphone 4 to be a device that people enjoy keeping for longer and that sets them apart from the crowd. Our customers are people who make independent choices to create positive change, and they choose Fairphone to accelerate that change.”
Alistair Wilson, Director of Partnerships and Devices, EE:“Partnering with leading sustainable manufacturer Fairphone to bring Fairphone 4 5G to our award-winning 5G network, is another part of our commitment to help provide customers with sustainable choices. This includes helping them to make the most of their existing smartphones with annual device MOT’s and same day repair services. The whole EE business, from our mobile network to our 575+ high street stores is powered using 100% renewable electricity, and we have a target to become a net-zero emissions business by 2030 for our own operations”.
Fairphone’s holistic approach to sustainability is what truly sets it apart, making the Fairphone 4 a leading sustainable device on the market. Unlike other industry players, Fairphone focuses not only on its environmental impact but also on its social impact on the electronics supply chain, working towards systemic change. Sustainability and longevity are at the heart of everything Fairphone does, and with every new phone it launches, it sets an example for the smartphone industry.
Fairphone 4 is the first electronic waste neutral handset released. The company will compensate users’ phones and spare parts by responsibly recycling one phone (or an equal amount of small electronic waste) for every Fairphone 4 sold. Alternatively, Fairphone will take back and refurbish at least one other phone to prevent the production of a new one. The phones used for this programme are sourced from Fairphone’s European take-back efforts or from countries without formal recycling infrastructure, and are brought to Europe for environmentally sound recycling.
Fairphone has expanded its list of fair materials, adding six new ones, and is now focusing on 14 key materials from sustainable and fairer sources. For Fairphone 4 they include; Fairtrade-certified gold, aluminiumfrom Aluminium Stewardship Initiative (ASI) Performance Standard certified vendors, fair tungsten from Rwanda as well as recycled tin, rare earth minerals and plastics. Fairphone is the first smartphone brand to have a back cover made of 100% post consumer recycled polycarbonate. Fair sourcing means engaging and tackling issues in supply chains, such as child labour and unsafe working conditions, while driving opportunities for positive impact. For miners and workers, this means fair working conditions, such as a safe and healthy working environment, and access to personal protective equipment. Fair sourcing also empowers communities to thrive and protects the environment. Fairphone has made significant progress on this front; about 56% of its original eight focus materials have been fairly sourced in 2020, up from 25% in 2018 and 32% in 2019.
Fairphone developed its innovative living wage programme and aims to expand partnerships with strategic suppliers to improve working conditions for their employees. In 2020, 10,717 people benefited from Fairphone’s social, environmental or economic interventions in mines and factories, almost twice as many as in 2018, when those benefiting totalled 5,296. For example, in 2020, Chinese factory workers for Fairphone’s production supplier received a living wage bonus that was the equivalent of up to more than four months extra salary, to fill the gap between the Chinese minimum wage and living wage.
Important scores and third-party certifications also prove Fairphone 4’s sustainability claims. Fairphone 4 is the first smartphone certified according to TCO Certified, a third-party sustainability certification for IT products. The 6GB/128GB internal storage variant has also received an 85/100 Eco Rating score, a labelling scheme initiated by five leading European mobile operators which evaluates the environmental impact of the entire process of production, transportation, use and disposal of mobile phones. And in France, Fairphone 4 has received 9.3 for its 8GB RAM/256GB internal storage variant for the French Repairability Index. The index aims to encourage consumers to choose more repairable products and manufacturers to improve the repairability of their products. In addition, Fairphone is now an official member of the Right to Repair campaign.
Since its launch in 2013, Fairphone has been working to transform the electronics sector into an industry that cares for people and planet. The industry faces a growing stream of electronic waste caused by the 1.4 billion mobile phones sold each year. The average phone has a short lifespan of 2-3 years. In addition, only 15% of discarded phones are collected for recycling. The short-sighted attitude affects every part of the industry and supply chain. In addition, making smartphones requires natural resources and these minerals are limited. Mining these materials can have a negative environmental impact. Extracting the necessary materials for a smartphone can also have serious social consequences, as it could be associated with child labour or dangerous working conditions. By establishing a market for ethical electronics, Fairphone is prompting the electronics industry to act more responsibly.
With each generation of its mobile phones, Fairphone has introduced the industry to its latest concept of fairness. Fairphone 1 marked the company’s debut in the industry as a force for change— the first smartphone company attempting to create an ecosystem for easy repairability by offering all spare parts on its online store. Fairphone 2 was the first modular phone on the market, a revolutionary concept to increase repairability and longevity. With Fairphone 3, the company widened its reach and proved to the industry that sustainability is a viable business model.
Fairphone 4 offers a step up in tech specifications. Users have a choice of 6GB of RAM with 128GB of internal storage or 8GB of RAM with 256GB of internal storage, allowing the phone to handle the most complex tasks with ease. Running on Android 11, Fairphone 4 features a fast, powerful and reliable Qualcomm chipset with future-proof 5G, to support the company’s principle of longevity. It boasts a 6.3-inch Full HD+ display with Pixelworks technology for a smooth and immersive user experience. The display is made from Corning Gorilla Glass 5 for great durability and resistance to drops and scratches. Its 3,905 mAh battery is replaceable and can be charged to 50% in 30 minutes (with minimum 20W charger). Designed with Swedish design agency Above, Fairphone 4 is distinctive yet stylish and sleek, sporting a tactile back cover and a side-mounted fingerprint sensor.
The device features the company’s highest-quality camera to date, designed to let users focus on what matters most: image quality and true-to-life colours in every frame and every setting. The camera comes with a pair of premium lenses — a 48MP main camera for all the details and a 48MP ultrawide camera for the bigger picture — and to top it off, a 25MP selfie camera. It has fast autofocus with laser accuracy and advanced image stabilization for smooth video recording. The camera software makes for an intuitive, effortless experience.
Fairphone is also expanding its portfolio beyond smartphones. Along with other accessories and spare parts, Fairphone is launching true wireless earbuds from a licensed design, made with 30% recycled plastics and with Fairtrade Gold integrated into its supply chain, another first in Fairphone’s growing portfolio. It’s Fairphone’s first step in the journey to increase the level of sustainability in the audio segment.
Gouwens concludes: “We’re raising the bar for ourselves and the industry, showing that doing things more sustainably makes good business sense. Fairphone 4 is a unique product: the first ever electronic waste neutral device and with a five-year warranty. It shows the industry a different way of encouraging longevity and fairness while going way beyond the accepted standards.Fairphone 4 will be our biggest phone release to date, as interest in sustainable devices continues to grow, reflected in the hundreds of thousands of devices we’ve sold with each new phone. With Fairphone 4, we took what we’ve done in the past and packaged it into a future-proof product that takes the challenge for the entire industry to the next level.”
Fairphone 4 will be available for pre-order on 30 September from Fairphone’s website and selected partners, at a suggested retail price of €579 or €649. The two variants of the device will be released on 25 October and will be available in Europe from a wide distribution network of (online) retailers and operators.

NAD Electronics, the highly regarded manufacturer of high-performance audio/video components, continues its expansion in the “just add speakers” category with the introduction of the C 700 BluOS Streaming Amplifier. The C 700 suggested retail price is US$1499 (£1299 / €1499 / CDN$1999 MSRP) and will ship globally in late October.
Housed in a compact and modern design, the C 700 was designed with a listener in mind who seeks an uncompromised listening experience with a focus on value. Inside the solid aluminium housing is a powerful HybridDigital UcD amplifier and BluOS Enabled network streamer. Using the intuitive BluOS app, the ability to cue music from a digital library, or stream from internet radio and online services like Spotify, Amazon Music HD, Tidal, and Qobuz could not be easier. The C 700 delivers an experience similar to the award-winning Masters Series M10 BluOS Music Streaming Amplifier.
Compact and Modern Design
Thanks to its elegant, minimalist design and premium materials, the C 700 will engage the most demanding of listeners — audibly as well as visually. The C 700 is housed in a solid aluminium case, with a smooth glass front panel and 5” high-definition colour display that shows album artwork, track status, and system settings.
Via the C 700’s colour display, adjusting amplifier settings is quick and convenient with the added benefit of having the ability to learn commands from any pre-existing remote control.
“The C 700 creates exceptional value for those seeking a modern and easy-to-use standalone music system”, comments Cas Oostvogel, NAD’s Product Manager. “Ever since NAD introduced the legendary 3020 integrated amplifier in 1978, the NAD brand has been renowned for value, performance, and innovation. With the C 700 BluOS Streaming Amplifier, NAD has completely updated that tradition for the streaming era.”
Powerful HybridDigital UcD Amplification
The highly efficient UcD amplifier design is renowned for ultra-low noise and distortion through the entire frequency range, regardless of the loudspeaker load. Employing NAD’s proven HybridDigital UcD amplifier technology, the C 700 can deliver 2×80 watts of continuous power and 2×120 watts of instantaneous power, for effortless music reproduction.

Just Add Speakers
The C 700 has everything needed to play music, by just adding speakers. The BluOS app creates an intuitive way to select music from dozens of different streaming services, internet radio, or to play music stored on an external drive connected to the C 700’s USB port.
In addition to the audiophile grade speaker outputs, the C 700 has a subwoofer output jack where it’s required. Convenient low and high-pass crossover settings in the BluOS app provide a seamless blend between the subwoofer and main speakers.
The C 700 has two pairs of RCA analogue inputs, as well as coaxial and optical digital inputs, for connecting disc players, game consoles, media adapters, and other components. There’s also an HDMI eARC port for connecting a HDTV with HDMI ARC support. This allows the

The awards recognise the work of women and non-binary podcasters worldwide. Shure, as headline partners, sponsored the category “Changing the World One Moment at a Time,” awarding winner Laura Joyce Davis with a special gold-plated SM7B microphone for her work on Shelter in Place podcast.
