If I invest a $100 I can& #39;t lose more than a $100 right?
No. You certainly can.

If you really want to day trade, manage your risk.
Never risk more than 1-2% of your account on a single trade.
Every trade eats into your profits.
Use stops to cut losses.
Never trade an instrument you don& #39;t understand.
Don& #39;t trust anyone to trade for you.
