First of all, people who are very disciplined and do intraday trading well in the long term can make good money. but if you look at the statistics, 90% of people make . So, if we all come here with the definitely need to change our mindset first. first. Only get into trading if you are willing to learn well . Be willing to put your time and effort in . So what is intraday trading? What is the difference between interstate travel and intrastate travel? What is interstate travel? If we I am going from Trivandrum to Kochi, it is intrastate state. Similarly, if we say intraday trading, we say intraday, that is, the trading intraday, that is, the trading . That is, the stock closes at 3:30 PM. Intraday trading is when we complete all our transactions within that time frame, take a profit if we make a profit, or a loss if we make a loss, and exit. major opportunity for us and can potentially make us a lot of money . So why is intraday trading so desirable, part one. The first reason. This first reason is not that fancy. It's everything we second and third are very interesting. Even if you are a beginner, there is a section there that will definitely shock you. But anyway, the first started studying technical analysis. We will learn many things further we understand that the price of any stock has a chance of price of a stock is 100 rupees. I have ₹1000 in my trading account . I've been waiting for a while . Because I know price reaches 110. I am selling everything. So how much did I get? I made a profit of Rs 100 on a stock at Rs 10 each . . Let's made a profit of 100 rupees. So now we have a total of Rs. 1100 in our hands. We can trade tomorrow with this Rs. 100. What Otherwise, it is called taking a long position . For example, I think Reliance's . So if I my assumption or my price of that stock will go up, so I bought it now. That hear all this, there's a small thing that we think about. It's all good. When the we can make money. But after I put my analysis in place, price of the stock will not go up tomorrow, but down. So can I make money while trading intraday? If that's the case, we can make money. So part two of why intraday trading is so desirable. So to explain this, I'll tell you a simple story. When I counted the gold this morning, the price of a gold coin was 10,000 rupees. But I know that by this afternoon, the price will be 8,000 rupees comes up to me and asks, "If you have a gold coin in your hand, give it to me, and I'll give you ₹1,000." That is, they my hand, I will give it to you. So he and I come to a deal. But telling him that I have the gold oil in my hand in one place now your house by four o'clock in the evening . I'll make a deal that by that time . So I actually don't have any coins in my hand. sign the deal and go to Pulli Pulli's house . I'm watching other programs what should I do now that I don't have the coin in my hand? I have to sign wherever I find the coin. the price of the coin will drop to Rs. 8,000 after noon. 8,000. So by noon, I find a seller who has scheduled another sale for me, . I found out and told him today that if he gave me a coin now, gives me this coin. Then you only need to pay 8000 rupees. Because by that time, I am buying this coin from this seller for Rs. 8,000. I go straight to . I'm giving this coin there . He buys ₹10,000 coming back here. I pay that seller 8000 rupees and settle the deal . I made a one doubt that everyone immediately has is that when I what if he knows that he only has ₹8,000 now? I don't want it, We can't get away with saying, "I'll buy something else." Because once the deal is signed, the We already signed the deal this morning. So he looked into what happened here, I sold a gold coin to I sold something I didn't have. Because I know its price will go down after noon . So I'm selling something I don't have, realizing that there's an opportunity for me to make money an opportunity for me to make money trading. We understand that it's going down. Now let's reached 110 lots, and we made some profit, and it will still reach 90 lots from 110. looking for a seller or a buyer. Let's do all those exchange. We shouldn't do this. We just need to place a buy or sell order do the rest. We just need to have the money for it . So what's up? I know it's going to go up or down. So what do I do? I'll place an . Then the stock exchange . Once I say I'll sell it, no matter who I give this thing to them within twenty minutes. So the stock exchange everything is signed. What should we do now? we have to wait for the price to come down. So we waited and waited, and when the price went from 100 to 90, we placed the next buy order. When you place a buy order, you will We don't need to know any of this through the stock exchange itself . We just need to place an order . So, . If you put the stock in someone else's account, they will do profit we get in our account . Another very we now assume that its price will go down. But . That means it was 110, it became 120 or 130. We 110 rupees. So can we run away from this deal or not? . If we sell this item for 110 and its price goes up, we can only buy it at that price and pay it back. We have no choice but to bear that loss. Well, this one incident is a special feature of intraday trading. That means . We saw earlier that it is called taking a long position. So this is what we do, the so what we saw earlier is a long position, which means first buying and then selling position. The word "short" is actually a shortage. If we I sold one coin first. . So the buyer already took a coin from me and had to give it to me in the shop So I'm in a coin shortage right now because I don't have any coins in my hand. So let's call my position a short position. someone says they took a short position in the stock market, it's says they took a short position in the stock market, it's . Okay. So . Before that, I talked about short selling. I will illustrate what I am going to say with an example Rs. 120 at the very beginning. I expect its price to go down. But unfortunately, our calculations are 125, to 130, and so on. As I said in the last video, if we had set a stop loss, we didn't set a stop loss. We are waiting like this. Our market will close at 3:30. We have already sold the We have to buy back the stock. Then, since the price is still high, we will lose. So, don't think that we can just do nothing and escape. We are not going to do anything. But our broker, if we don't do anything, every time it reaches 20, our broker will place a buy order and square big deal. It only means to make a decision in this matter . That means we've already sold everything and are now in the zero. time our broker will charge us an auto square off fee as well lose even more. So, it would be better to a second thing. . For now, we can only short sell in intraday trading . So, to put it simply, if I sell today, I . While we're learning a little bit more, we can learn a little bit more about other also understand derivatives we need to understand now is that we can only take this short position in intraday trading. So, we can give this option in our broker's order form: " I am buying in the long term, intraday." If we are intraday, we can only sell first if we have chosen intraday. I'll show you unfold on that screen in the next section. That will give you a little more clarity. Okay. So now our next section is What Makes Intraday Trading Desirable, Part Three. So that's the understand this, let me actually do a stock buy. . This is just an example. This is chosen here is HDFC Bank . I repeat, this is not a recommendation. This is just an example. So I'm taking this HDFC Bank stock and . We that now. Just listen to what I'm saying now 2011 rupee 20 paise. That is the price to buy a stock of HDFC Bank right now . What is the required amount? 2011.20, meaning if we want to buy something worth Rs. 2000, the no confusion about that. But when we look here, What do you mean by delivery? I'm buying that stock now. . That is not intraday trading . I plan to invest it long-term, or swing trade, or . So what we buy and take away is called planning to do here is not delivery, an option lying on the floor here, . So after choosing it and 402 rupees 24 paise, that is, what was 2011 rupees 20 paise, paise, that is, what was 2011 rupees 20 paise, I am now getting 402 rupees 24 paise. So if I just type this 2011.20 divide by 402.24, I will get exactly 1, that is, if I pay one- fifth of the price of that stock, be able to buy that stock. This is what is called leverage. This is not an event that our broker gives us . The price of this stock is still the same as in 2011. But once we pay this much money, the we are intraday trading. We will turn off all the events on the set today our broker gives us this facility. The facility of five times the money . This is what gives us five times leverage . So what do we I want to trade with Rs. 1000, UPSC. Upstox offers five times leverage. Five times Times. I think most brokers are now offering five times . But some people might give it 10 times, 20 times . But every broker will be are looking at here is five times leverage . So the very little capital, we can still trade for five times the money beneficial for us . So let me 100 rupees. So I have 1000 rupees to trade. I have transferred 1000 rupees to this broker's account. I don't calculate brokerage fees or anything like that here we can keep things simplified and move forward . So I know there's a chance this stock will be priced at 120 . So, Suppose I don't have leverage yet. If not, I have 1000 rupees in my hand. The I can buy 10 of them. By the time it reaches 120, I will have a profit of 200. Now, if I have leverage, I can buy a stock worth Rs 5,000 with the Rs 1,000 I have . That means you can buy 50 stocks. I sell it when it reaches 120 get? 1000 rupees. That is, if I made a profit of ₹100 when there was no leverage, the I made a profit of ₹100 when there was no leverage, the I can make a profit that is twice as much as the leverage I get. With the same capital I have. So this is what makes trading so desirable, even if I have very low capital, I still get this leverage. But there is one thing we absolutely need to know. Not everything is positive with this leverage. . I bought the stock for 100 rupees . I was expecting it to be 120. But it didn't reach 120. 90 lots were sold. If I buy without taking any leverage, I will lose Rs 100 on a stock, that is, lose Rs 100 in my hand and I will have Rs 900 left in my hand. So tomorrow when I trade, I will have only Rs 900 in my hand. But if I take leverage, I will buy 50 stocks. capital is Rs 1000, out of which Rs 500 is gone right away. So tomorrow when I trade, I will have Rs 500 left in my hand. only have the remaining Rs. So, it is but if our conviction or our calculation is wrong and we go into a loss, there is a chance that we will also lose five times as much . So, not only do a significant amount of our capital is reduced, and it can sometimes take us a while to get back to where we started . So, overall, all of this is causing us a huge loss. That's why say about this leverage that even though it is very helpful at the same time, it is us . It could even wipe out our entire capital . So what we should always do when we trade is to . Now, let me tell you one more thing for you to note . A long time ago, now we get leverage like this even in delivery options So I don't go into that much. Because today we are learning more about intraday trading. But in zinc trading, our broker lends us money in the same way, so we may keep it in our hands for a while . So that's why from us. If we clearly stated that for every Rs 40,000 we borrow, . So I won't go into it because it's not relevant to this particular video of ours . So the next section is the pros and cons of intraday trading. I'll say it quickly without wasting any time . Pros: no overnight risk. Having said that, there is an overnight risk when we buy a stock, hold it in our hands, and then sell it after a week or two. That means we have bought the company's stock and put our hands on it. Or maybe something happened to that company itself. there is a chance that the value of the company we are holding will go down and the price of the stock will also go down. buy today and sell today. Otherwise, I will sell it today and settlements will be completed today. So, that's why there's know today, so we don't Thirdly, you can create a system and participate . Or you can decide that you will sit down and participate several days a week or a month in advance You don't make any profit in intraday trading . You are going to a big loss want, you can stop this for a while and analyze the mistakes you're making. we have already taken a position, . Maybe we'll exit it in one week, two weeks, or three weeks . I personally . The first thing is that we must market opens in the morning and closes in the afternoon we trade. So, if you're someone who works a full-time job or if you be a real challenge. The second thing is very, very emotionally draining. If we don't learn to deal with it psychologically when we experience a loss, there's a we don't learn to deal with it psychologically when we experience a loss, there's a knows, it is an emotional roller coaster, and the only it is an emotional roller coaster, and the only all the capital we have in our hands will be wiped out . Continuous . If we are continuously making losses, said last is a bad thing about intraday trading. meant to say is that we have learned a few things and then when we get down to trading, we should never come down thinking that we have nothing to learn. want to see it, you can see it. But what I am saying is that no matter what skill you learn with high earning potential, continuous learning is necessary. Finally, I have a few trading risky? After hearing all this, most people cool, whether the price goes up or the money goes down. Money and is an opportunity to make money as you like. So even if all this is are very favorable, 90 percent of the people who trade are in losses. Not 90 percent of the people who trade are in losses. Not go to an addiction level and make this trading. Even if they lose, there lose, there we will learn a lot of things. We are We are not going to learn anything that can magically make money here. So what I'm learn technical analysis, but there is that is how we control our emotions. we control our emotions. me give you an example. If you example. If you give this simple strategy to a trader with the right psychology and to a trader with the wrong psychology, how cool is our strategy? Or psychology is not right, we are not going to make money in the long term. As we correct our psychology. thinking that you can skip them. Now, another suggestion I have for you personally is that if you are a beginner, . Please try to never use any of your emergency savings or borrowed money to trade in the stock market. Otherwise, scare you, I'm just saying what reality is . Maybe not everyone will tell you this when they make videos I decided to say this. Alright, learned in detail what intraday trading is and how it works. In the next video we will talk about what is swing trading? From there, what is swing trading? From there, forward and study the remaining things in depth, one by one I always say, training is a very good thing . If you are playlist I have made for you .
