The act of buying and selling stocks in a single day (day trading) requires large amounts of leverage from the buyer to take advantage of small fluctuations in the price of stocks or indexes. Leverage means money, and this may be obtained through credit (loans) or, if you are lucky, a financial institution. For the average investor day trading represents too great a risk, and yet for those willing to take the gamble, the rewards can be considerable.
A day trader traditionally examines a stock for two qualities: Liquidity and volatility. Liquidity means that you can enter and exit a stock at a good price (i.e. when you look at its price it is low, but you expect it to make gains throughout the day). And volatility refers to the price range that the stock is expected to achieve. A day trader will look for stocks he/she believes will make gains in the space of just a day.
Once the stock has been identified the trader requires an entry point, or the best time to buy. There are many different methods for ascertaining this point, but here are a couple of suggestions:
1. A spike in volume can mean that other investors are purchasing the share at its current price, meaning they are confirming that it is currently at a good price.
2. Previous days highs and lows can also demonstrate the best time to purchase the shares.
Investor also have a number of methods for knowing when to sell their stocks to maximize profit and reduce the risks. Scalping is the most popular method, where shares are sold almost immediately upon making a profit. Profits are not always huge, but risk is minimal. Daily pivots is another very popular method and involves judging when the high of the day (HOD) has been reached and selling at that point. Other strategies are to sell shares as they reach a high, and then as they drop back down buy more with the expectation that they will be bought again and the gain in volume will increase the price (this is known as fading).
To minimize risk day traders nearly always employ a stop-loss limit. This limit is placed at the maximum amount you are willing to lose and sells your shares at that point, and doesn't allow you to go further. This can done as either a mental limit, or one you programme into your system.
The reality of day trading is that around 80% of traders lose money, with few making profits in their first few years (see: www.investopaedia.com). And over half of those that attempt it will fail. But with some of the techniques described above and a commitment to evaluating your performance and limiting losses profits can be achieved, and for a few they can be exceptionally large.

I suppose the easy way is this:
(1) Determine how much you want to risk today (hopefully a small fraction of what you have available)
(2) Check the most active and top gainers at 8:30 am and 9:30 am
(3) Note the ones that are still on the list and preferrably have gained ground--these you buy (again, within your riskable funds amount)
(4) Check the most active and top gainers at 1:30 pm and 2:30 pm, then compare to your purchases.
(5) Sell the losers and let the winners ride--assuming that their price appreciation slope is still positive, otherwise you are properly getting out when the getting is good.
(6) Even if you had a winning day, you conclude with an accounting of your profits to the amount you risked and ask yourself "Now why am I doing this?"

Day trading is, simply put, making daily trades. You might even sell a stock the same day you buy it. You might sell short one day and buy it back the same day. The key is to ignore the long-term fundamentals of the company and look for market pressure. Typical idea...When you see something down on bad news, buy it before it rebounds. You see something inflated on good news, sell it short and buy it back after it cools off. To do this, all you really need is a trading account and a subscription to continuous real-time market information.
