A FEW PARAMETERS TO FILTER STOCKS FOR INTRADAY TRADING

There are few things to be considered before selecting a stock for intraday such as,
1)Volume
2)Price
3)Mimicking Stocks

VOLUME:
Always Select a stock which has a high liquidity, which means the stock should have at least average daily volume of above 1 million (10 lakhs).

PRICE:
Many would not consider this as a important parameter. but it must be considered. Choosing penny stocks for intraday is not a good choice at all. Always prefer stocks trading above Rs.100 for intraday

MIMICKING STOCKS:
Look for the stocks which move in sync with the index.
So when the index moves upward/downward, there is a high possibility for the stock to go up/down similarly.
Few such examples are
1)Nifty & Reliance,
2)Bank nifty& HDFC Bank,
3)Nifty IT & TCS.

SUMMARY
#Make a List of 10 stocks, which have good volume (>10 lakhs) & price above 100
#Try to Pick stocks from F&O category as they are the most liquid stocks & these stocks can't be manipulated easily by the operators.
#Make sure the 10 stocks are from various industries. Because if we pick stocks from same industries, they are likely to move in tandem.
#As a beginner, one should trade within only those 10 stocks every single day for at least 6 months. The reason behind is, every stock has a certain behaviour of its own & when we trade same stocks for a long time, one will get to know the in & out of the stocks & eventually be better at trading.
#Another good reason is, every stock is subjected to move according to its corporate action ( Earnings, AGM, Dividends etc.,) So it becomes easy to pay attention to the news related to a particular company, when we trade very few stocks.
