🔸Introduction🔸

Highlights of this article
1. Day Trading Statistics database
2. Balance of Securities Provided as Financing Collateral database

– 📍Day Trading Statistics database
Day trading refers to a form of speculation in securities that traders buy and sell the same security on the same trading day. The feature of day trading is that this kind of speculation won’t keep the security to the next trading day which means traders don’t need to have money to buy the security. Traders just have to bear the difference in price on the trading day. This approach allows traders to gain a big profit with little money. This is one of the most trading approaches that short-term traders use in the stock market.
Although day trading won’t cost traders a lot of money, this approach is with higher risk than usual stock trading. Traders should consider their risk tolerance before taking this approach into action.

In addition to general margin trading and securities lending, investors can also use data such as the number of shares purchased through collateral financing to determine the leverage ratio and determine whether the stock is showing signs of overheating. Since May 03, 2016, Securities Firms can offer loans for “Non-Restricted Purpose Loan.” Investors can use the stocks in their accounts as collateral and borrow up to 40–60% of the funds. In the short term, it is different from traditional financing; Securities lending transactions and viewing collateral balance levels can also infer the current status of leveraged funding in the market.
This database provides various data of securities firms engaged in lending and lending according to different business categories to enable investors to finance and complete stock transactions. In addition to observing the market popularity through margin financing and securities lending, the “collateral balance” can also include for comparison. In addition, one of the particular applications is “Non-Restricted Purpose Loan.” The Financial Supervisory Commission expects to implement the T+0 delivery method in the second quarter of 2022, that is, through “Non-Restricted Purpose Loan,” using their own stocks as collateral, the redemption of funds two days in advance, the process only needs to pay the Security Firms interest fees.
