1. Take your money... fold it in half... put it back in your pocket. You have just doubled your money. You don't belong in the stock market because your money will going into someone else's pocket.
2. have you ever though of investment in unit trusts or mutual funds? your time horion (5 days) is quite short and if you want to see profits, you will have to risk loss. to make profits in such short period means that you will most probably buy speculative shares. Why not put that money in a account that could accumulate interest?
3. Perhaps you should say 'speculate' instead of 'invest'. Investment is usually for the long term, where you hope to gain from the profits and the growth of the company you invest in. Neither the growth nor the profits of any company are likely to change noticeably within 5 days. And the only way you can make money from a 5-day trade is from the changing of sentiment among other investors. It is possible to make money that way. But you have to be good at predicting the future mood of the market. And there is a lot of risk that you will turn out to be wrong. In which case you will loose money instead of making it. If you need advice from others about how to do it well. Then you shouldn't be doing it at all. Because nobody is going to loose money from giving you wrong advice. And some people will blab about it just to make conversation. But you will loose money, if you follow their imprudent advice.
