Equity Trading
Equity trading involves buying and selling equity shares in secondary markets, via stock exchanges. Traders use various styles: intraday equity trading squares off positions within a day, while swing equity trading rides price movements over days, weeks, or months. To participate, one needs a trading and Demat account, which holds shares electronically. Account opening costs vary, but the process is straightforward. Equity trading offers flexibility, catering to both short-term profit seekers and those eyeing longer-term gains, depending on strategy and market conditions.
