In our last blogs, we discussed the basics of stocks and how does the stock market works. Now let us discuss what are different types and segments of trading.
There are mainly 5 types of trading available in the stock market. Let us discuss in how many ways the trading can be done.
1. Intraday Trading:
Intraday Trading, also known as Day Trading, is buying and selling of equities on same day. The traders only hold positions from minutes to hours and closes all the trades before the market closes. However, Day trading is said to be risky but if done with discipline, traders can earn high return on the investments made.
2. Positional Trading:

4. Momentum Trading:
Momentum Trading is a trading in which trader focus on stocks that are moving in one direction in high volume. The trader typically identifies the stock which is “breaking out” & trade with the stock momentum up or down. In Momentum Trading, the trades can last from hours to days.
