In Intraday Equity Trading, investors usually opt for margin trading to buy stocks; therefore, the capital needed is lower. With smaller amounts, you can take larger positions. The broker will lend you additional funds, thereby increasing your profit potential. Brokers also charge a lower commission on intraday trading than they would on regular or delivery trading. Intraday stocks should be squared-off in a single trading day, thus, allowing traders to book profits on price fluctuations within a few hours. The capital is free for use on the same day.
