The goal of this IQP was to perform two stock market simulations with different trading strategies, which were day trading and position trading, to find out which strategy would bring better profit. The two simulations were performed over a 7-week period, each with a starting amount of $100,000. At the end of the simulations, Position Trading made 3.73% profit while Day Trading made a better 5.77% profit. The experiences learned from this project will aid the participants to make wise and educated decisions in the future
