Intraday
Referring to price movements, trading activity, or analysis that occurs within a single trading day. Intraday traders open and close positions before the market closes, using short-term charts and strategies to profit from price fluctuations.
Example
“For example, an intraday trader might buy S&P 500 futures at 9:45 AM after a bullish opening pattern and sell at 2:30 PM for a 20-point profit, closing flat before the bell.”
