Step 1
Wait for a good entry point.
Don't just buy at any point when playing the stock market. It is important to find an entry point. An example of an entry point is when the stock is down for the day but it is still heading in a bullish direction. This way you can purchase your stock for a cheaper price and be able to make more money then buying it on a day where the stock is up. Make sure you have really researched the stock and that it is not about to have a reversal. -
Step 2
Find a good website to use.
There are many different websites to use for day trading, the trick is finding a good one. Depending on which features you need will help you pick what website to use. Make sure whatever stock trading website you use is legitimate. Some websites are just out to get your account information, so it is important to know if the website is trusted. Sharebuilder and Etrades are two websites many traders use. There are fees for traders so keep that in mind when you start buying and selling stocks. -
Step 3
Stay current with what is going on in the world.
Certain events can change the direction of stocks. So it is very important to know what these events are.

It is important to learn about what is going on each day. Because 24 hours can sometimes change everything in the world of the stock market.
