I consider myself a swing trader and here's Investopedia's definition - http://www.investopedia.com/terms/s/swingtrading.asp

Swing Trading - A style of trading that attempts to capture gains in a stock within one to four days. Swing traders use technical analysis to look for stocks with short-term price momentum. These traders aren't interested in the fundamental or intrinsic value of stocks, but rather in their price trends and patterns.


Investopedia - http://www.investopedia.com/terms/c/consolidation.asp

Consolidation - The levels of resistance and support within the consolidation are created through the upper and lower bounds of the stock's price. Once the price of the asset breaks through the identified areas of support or resistance, volatility quickly increases and so does the opportunity for short-term traders to generate a profit.
