Definition
Day trading is the act of buying and selling shares frequently. It's often used interchangeably with the term intraday trading, which refers to trading within one day, between the share markets opening and closing. While some professionals have experience in day trading, the term day trading can also refer to investors who buy shares in companies to sell them quickly - think day, week or month - for what they hope is a profit.
