Day trading explained
Day trading involves buying and selling financial instruments within a single trading day – closing out positions at the end of each day and starting afresh the next.

Day trading involves making fast decisions, and executing a large number of trades for a relatively small profit each time. It’s generally thought of as the opposite to most investment strategies, where you seek to benefit from price movements over a longer period of time.
