People often put in long-trades on stocks that they don’t think are going to change much in volume. They enter long positions with the belief that a stock will gradually go up in value because the trends and history of a stock suggest that it will keep on going up. The truth is that volatility is always a possibility of every stock. Some stocks might move up quickly as mutual funds buy or sell massive numbers of shares. A news story like a big acquisition or even some sizable financial calamity within the business might make an impact just as well.
