Day Trading

You will have to hold for at least three days, or at least hold onto the cash proceeds from any trade for three days. It takes that long for a trade to clear, unless you are approved for day trading, in which case you do need a minimum account of $25,000. For instance, you could buy a stock and sell it the same day, but if you used the cash proceeds to buy another stock, you would be required to hold that stock for three days before selling it.

This is not a day trading. however, it is calculated as business income and taxed at personal income tax rates (in India).

not day trading here would mean that the brokerage would be charged at delivery rates and not day trades, even though u havent received delivery of shares.

Once you are able to learn the basics of online trading, you won't need to ask for specific details like the ones you ask. You would know how to figure out the answers for yourself. And of course, be able to trade profitably on your own.

None. Do not day trade. Take this from an experienced investor with a strong background in Finance.

You are never going to get much daytrading and more likely to lose what you have.

Take the investment approach, not day trading.

The word is EQUITY not CASH.

You can buy $30000 in stock or $60000 in stock on margin ($120000 if cleared in advance by the brokerage house management and reduced to $60000 by the end of the day) None of these actions change your equity. The only way that your equity goes down to $25000 is if you withdraw or lose $5000.

I don't want to sound harsh, but this is for your own good. Daytrading is for experienced traders. If you don't even understand the basic vocabulary of trading, daytrading is an expensive way to learn.

Good luck, I lost a lot doing it your way. Keep one thing in mind…if your stock is rising and you are thinking about holding it for a bit more, set a limit! And I am not saying this as a mental limit. If you buy at $20, and your stock is rising, you might set a sell limit of $20.50 if it drops. Protect your investment. I could tell you a horror story of where I bought into a stock on the rise, and was up by over $4 a share for 200 shares…I stopped and took out the trash, and upon my return, it was $2 a share less than when I first bought it. Long story, but the bottom line – no limit set. This situation occurred in a 20 minute period, it doesn't happen too often, but for me… Never again.

Some people do make money day trading, but every respectable study on day trading that I have seen has shown that far more people lose money day trading.
