THE MARKET OPENED AFTER A FIVE DAY EXTENDED HOLIDAY AND PROMPTLY FELL, GIVING SHORT SELLERS A FAIR PROFIT. PARTIAL PROFITS SHOULD BE TAKEN ON SHORT TRADES, AS MARKETS MAY BE VOLATILE AND DIFFICULT TO PREDICT IN NEXT FEW DAYS.

For short term traders, stay on the short side with reduced positions. Take profits on any intraday plunge. Understand that markets are getting short term oversold, therefore, we should look for signs of support: a sharp decline that finds support after a fall. At such support level, take profits on the balance of your positions.

Benefits of Intraday Trading

Intraday trading, often called "day trading," is the practice of opening and closing a position in any financial market on the same day.

The risks in day trading are extremely high, but the potential rewards are also great.

Day trading is characterized by multiple intra-day trades executed to take advantage of small price movements in stock. stocks are generally held for minutes or hours and generally positions are closed out overnight for small profits or losses. In the day trading study, a day trader is described as "an individual who conducts inta-day trading in a focused and consistent manner with a primary goal of earning a living through the profits derived from trading strategy".
