What is day trading and how does it work?

 

Day trading is a trading strategy where stocks or other financial instruments are bought or sold within the same trading day with the goal of capitalizing on short-term price movements.

 

Unlike other strategies, day traders do not hold stocks overnight. This means closing all open trades by the end of the market session to reduce exposure to overnight risks. Successful day trading requires an understanding of market trends and the ability to make quick decisions under pressure.

 

Here’s how day trading works: Day traders mostly use tools like real-time charts, indicators, and news feeds to predict price movements and identify profitable opportunities. Traders aim to profit from small price changes and may execute multiple trades within a day.

 

However, day trading is a high-risk, high-reward approach that requires discipline, experience, and a well-structured trading plan and strategy. For beginners, it's crucial to start with a strong knowledge base, understand the risks involved, and practice using demo accounts before trading with real capital or money.
