Short Term & Long Term Definitions

When we refer to Short Term and Long Term; these divisions refer to trading styles rather than being a forecast extending out for some time period into the future. 

"Short term" trader would be one wanting to make trades every few days.

"Intermediate" every few weeks.

"Long term" is every few months. 

There is understandably some blurring of the edges of these categories, but they represent a useful way to help think about what is happening.
