How did you start short-term trading?

Well, I think the word short-term said it all. Cannot be greedy, it should be hit and run. Follow the trend, get the profit, cut the stock, keep the money in pocket.

Everyone would say it all about analysis and study of the company, but this are all theory that anyone knows, but do not understand. And no matter how much analysis and studies done, once social media gets into the picture, it will over rule all.
Social media is the true king, as long as it say rise, and people believe it will rise, no matter what data and fact shows.
