Day Trading refers to the practice of buying and selling financial instruments within the same trading day such that all positions will usually (not necessarily always) be closed before the market close of the trading day. Traders that participate in day trading are called day traders

Some of the more commonly day-traded financial instruments are stocks,stock options, currencies and a host of futures contracts such as equity index futures, interest rate futures, and commodity futures.

Day trading used to be the preserve of financial firms and professional investors and speculators. Many day traders are bank or investment firms employees working as specialists in equity investment and fund management. However, day trading has become increasingly popular among casual traders due to advances in technology, changes in legislation, and the popularity of the Internet.

First off, you should know that "predicable" and "day trade" should never be used in the same sentence. If there was a predictable way to profit by day trading, a lot more people would be doing it.

That being said, if your looking to investing something that is the "least risky" and "most predictable" you should look at a low cost fund that tracks a broad market index . Check out VFINX, Vanguards mutual fund that tracks the S&P 500. If you looking for pure predictability, try a bond fund.

The others you mention Forex, Options and Commodities, are the MOST risky and LEAST predictable. And while they can be quite profitable for a professional trader, they are not suitable for the average/rookie investor.

Do we use that as strategy to trade (buy, hold and sell)??? What else should I look at or research?

There was a strategy popularized in a group called the turtles several years ago. One of their features was to watch for a price break out of a moving average number. They commonly used 50 or 200 day numbers, but your 100 day will work too.

If you notice price fluctuations over time, there seems to develop something some people call ceilings and floors. The price seems to stay within a channel. In statistics you would call that a standard deviation, as practically applied–technically, it is a bit more involved, yet it is a functional equivalent of the principle.

Now, if the price of the stock or commodity contract "breaks out" of that corridor, whatever caused that would likely have some strength or momentum to it. The turtles found that they got to get more action in watching the 50-day moving average breakouts, but there was more strength and better results in waiting for a 200-day breakout. Bear in mind, it didn't matter which direction the price broke because they would buy (go long) for increasing prices or sell-short (go short) for falling prices.

Next you apply a stop loss of some sort, usually a trailing stop of something like 5 or 10 percent depending on how volitile (how the price flops around). Just because something set a new higher or lower price than it experienced recently doesn't mean it will be a straight shot up or down.

No.
I am specifically referring to round trip trades which are part of the definition of a pattern day trader. If a person buys 2000 shares of stock B on a particular day and sells only 5 shares of stock B that same day is it considered a round trip? Could you cite a reference for where you found the definition.
Day trading


An action that attempts to inflate transaction volumes through the continuous and frequent purchase and sale of a particular security, commodity or asset. Round-trip trading can be used to refer to the practice of a business selling an unused asset to another company while agreeing to buy back the same asset for about the same price (which has been seen in the energy and telecom business).
Example: (Hypothetical) I created a position on a stock or commodity options market, and have a position of (bought) 20 Call Options with strike price of 100 USD and I paid the premium of 10 USD. If the next day the premium fell to 8 USD and the underlying price fell to 95 USD, how much Loss/Gain did i make?
Day trading


(10-8) * 20 = 40. The other data is just for figuring out how much the options worth.
