Preferred days in the week for day traders

T

TheMordy

I'm day trading, mainly the daily top gainers and top looser (fitting my strategy).

Are there specific preferred days, where price moves more significantly during the session ?

Looks to me like Friday is a great day for day traders, had recently a few stocks which moved 10-60% after open on Friday.

Basically, are there more and less volatile trading sessions (end of the week, beginning)?

I wouldn't think it would be fridays,very few earnings reports are released on fridays. Often times monday mornings can be quite volatile even though few ERs come out then.
 
I only trade on Saturdays. The rest of the week I lie on my beach chair. Nothing is easier than trading and investing. Watch a few YouTube clips and the money is coming in.

Best Time(s) of Day, Week, and Month to Trade Stocks

Is There a General Rule for Timing Trades?
The closest thing to a hard-and-fast rule is that the first hour and last hour of a trading day are the busiest, offering the most opportunities. But even so, many traders are profitable in the off-times as well.

The Bottom Line
These suggestions for the best time of day to trade stocks, the best day of the week to buy or sell stocks, and the best month to buy or sell stocks are generalizations, of course. Exceptions and anomalies abound, depending on news events and changing market conditions.

...

Best days are Green of course.

Hello TheMordy,

The best time for me to trade is 8:30 am to 3pm, Monday thru Friday, non-stop. No breaks.


Disclaimer: These are just my trading opinions. Please do not take what I say as truth because I can not prove anything I say makes a lot of money trading. Please trade per your own responsibility. I have been day trading manually for 4 years and my total profits is about -$11,500 so I am not a profitable day trader, yet. For 2023, I am down about -$3600. I am working on recovery day to day.
