In simple words, security analysis is the analysis of tradable financial instruments (e.g., debt securities, equity securities, hybrid securities, etc.) called securities. Security analysis is typically divided into categoriesfundamental analysis and technical analysis. While fundamental analysis relies upon the examination of fundamental business factors such as financial statements, technical analysis focuses upon price trends and momentum. The main purpose of a security analysis is to determine whether to purchase a particular security including common stock. The security analysis is also performed for a wider audience. For example, a security analyst at an investment bank may produce a security analysis for distribution to clients. Similarly, the security analyst may work for a mutual fund company and be responsible for identifying potential security investment opportunities.

Now it is time to try your own luck at short term trading, Use some of your imaginary $894,000 to buy some shares of a stock that you think will go up in the next day or so. If you invested the entire $894,000 alreadysell some of the securities at today's market price in order to have at least $50,000 in cash to get into the "day trading."
