Intraday trading, also known as day trading, is a style of trading in the stock market where buying and selling of stocks are completed within the same trading day. The goal is to profit from short-term price movements in a single day.
Key Features of Intraday Trading:
No overnight holdings: All positions are squared off (closed) before the market closes.
High risk, high reward: Because of market volatility and the use of leverage, profits can be high—but so can losses.
Leverage: Traders often use borrowed funds to increase the size of their trades, which magnifies both gains and losses.
Technical analysis focused: Intraday traders rely heavily on charts, patterns, and technical indicators rather than company fundamentals.
Time-sensitive: Requires constant monitoring and quick decision-making during market hours.
Example:
A trader buys 100 shares of Company X at ₹500 each at 10:00 AM.
The stock rises to ₹520 by 3:00 PM.
The trader sells all 100 shares, making a profit of ₹2,000 (excluding brokerage and taxes).
