Best Stocks to buy today and hold for a week for a swing trading

Hey All Swing Traders, happy Friday again!!!

Here we are again on this Friday with another recommendation for best stocks to buy. Please note that using our strategy, you can balance your portfolio every Friday based on our recommendation and buy stocks that we are adding to our watch list here and sell the stocks which are no longer in our list here from last Friday’s post.

As mentioned earlier, we are going to recommend this to swing traders as our picks change on every Friday and we strictly recommend to rebalance your portfolio every Friday in order to get as close results as our back testing results. We will also provide more ways to systematically trade using the following strategy. 

We will also be sending you detailed instructions soon on how to use this watchlist and manage your portfolio specifically for our recommended stocks here.

As we promised in our first article, we will be giving our recommendation every Friday in 3 different categories. This way depending on your favourite or comfortable style of investing or swing trading, you can choose one or all of these categories and pick your own price to invest with anywhere from $1000 to $5000, and consistently invest that on a weekly basis

As other investment advisors, we would like to call out here that these are just our recommendation and just like any other form of investing there is a risk involved in stock trading. You may want to check with your own financial advisor or tax advisor on any obligations this investment may have on your financial portfolio or tax liabilities.

Alright, so without further due, let’s deep dive into our recommendation from today and let’s compare it with our recommendation from last week.
