Brian Shannon is a full-time swing trader and a new author of Technical Analysis Using Multiple Timeframes. In this interview we discuss his background in trading and his overall philosophy of his approach. Brian talks about why he sets a 3-5% gain goal each week for himself each week and how he finds opportunities with "acceptable risk." We also discuss how he uses key levels of support and resistance to find trades. Finally, we discuss how he takes a large basket of stocks each week and whittles them down to about 20-30 he will be watching. He also has a blog at AlphaTrends.net.
