How intraday stock trading works
Intraday trading in stocks means buying and selling stocks on the same trading day. In the US stock market, traders who use that method are subject to the pattern day trading rules — a set of rules that govern day trading in the US stock market put in place by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA).

The FINRA, a self-regulatory organization that regulates member brokerage firms and exchange markets in the US, designates a pattern day trader as one who executes four or more “day trades” within five business days — as long as the number of day trades represents more than six percent of the total trades in the margin account for that same five business day period.

In other words, if you make four or more trades within five trading days and they amount to 6% of your trading account, you would be designated a pattern day trader. You must meet the requirements for such trading — maintain minimum equity of $25,000 in your margin account on any day that you day trade.

However, the $25,000 minimum equity can be a combination of cash and eligible securities but must be in the trading account before engaging in any day-trading activities. But any time your account falls below the $25,000 requirement, you will not be permitted to day trade until you restore your account to the $25,000 minimum equity level. Apart from the maintenance margin requirement, you cannot exceed your day-trading buying power — which is generally up to four times the maintenance margin excess as of the close of trading the day before. In other words, you are only allowed a maximum of 4x leverage.

If you want to trade with a smaller amount and use a higher leverage, you may have to trade stock CFDs, but in that case, you must not be in the US, as CFD trading is prohibited in the US. Outside of the US, you can trade CFDs on US stocks

Investors hoping for the year-end to bring stock market gains after a punishing year have history on their side as U.S. equities traditionally rally during the month of December, but many remain skeptical of forecasting a rise.

The S&P 500 has gained an average of 1.6% during December, the highest average of any month and more than double the 0.7% gain of all months, according to data from investment research firm CFRA. September, meanwhile, is the worst month of average for stocks, with a 0.7% average decline.

"December is usually a good time for investors but right now they are stuck because it’s really the focus on rates that will cause the market to go up or down in the short term,"

December is typically a good month as fund managers buy stocks that have outperformed over the year for so-called "window dressing" of their portfolios while there are year-end inflows and lower liquidity during holiday-shortened weeks

U.S. stocks finished lower Tuesday, with the Nasdaq Composite closing at its lowest in more than two years as the tech-heavy index and the S&P 500 index extended a losing bar to five sessions. Because of the Biden administration& #39;s decision on imposing export controls on China, technology stocks fell. Washington published a set of export controls that limit companies selling advanced computing semiconductors and manufacturing equipment to China. Tech shares continue to be the hardest hit in this bear market because of spiking interest rates.
The Nasdaq Composite dropped 115.91 points, or 1.1%, to end at 10,426.19 its lowest finish since July 28, 2020.

Energy stocks continue their climb today, with XLE rising nearly 2%, the only S&P sector to finish the day in the green. Exxon Mobile Corp, Chevron, and ConocoPhillips are all closing within 5% of 52-week highs.

Exxon, Chevron, ConocoPhillips, and some of these sector names are starting to make a move. The crude oil market is going higher. But even if crude would stay at this level, these stocks should be significantly higher than they are now on a benign tape.

Stock market analysts are all in favor of energy stocks. They say they like them right now. Our experience in the pantheon of technical analysis also gives us a hint to buy. These stocks are within whispers of their all-time highs in an environment where crude, until recently, is not traded particularly well.

How Uber Could Make a Comeback

Although the case for UBER stock is speculative – again, shares lost almost 35% of market value so far this year – it’s not without fundamental merits. Should employers continue to recall workers back to the office, the ride-sharing firm could get interesting.

Indeed, if recessionary pressures rise, the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) notes that employers could gain conspicuous leverage. It wrote the following:

With layoffs or hiring freezes, managers will give employees' performance greater scrutiny. Suddenly, "out of sight, out of mind" could take on new significance. Employees might lean more toward coming in to the office to show determination and a strong work ethic and get some in-person face time with their boss.

Companies are taking precautions not to favor the ones who do. The Wall Street Journal reported recently that HubSpot, a Boston-based digital marketing firm, plans to track promotions in the coming years to ensure people who rarely visit the office aren't disadvantaged by "proximity bias," said Katie Burke, its chief people officer.
