So how would you go about finding an undervalued stock? Well that's a topic which is always up for debate. I have my way of doing things that I've learned from my...

They can't produce one, because day trading is doomed to failure. In theory, day trading sounds exciting and profitable: Hopping in and out the market, taking a few pips here and there and overtime your day trading will make you huge profits with low risk.
