any of you make money by day trading?

[JOHN MATRIX]

are any of you experienced with this?
ive recently started getting into this, started out as a complete, TOTAL noobie...ive made alot of fundamental mistakes so far cause im learning as i go along, but it seems to me like it wouldnt take a rocket scientist to make a decent living off day trading alone, my goal is to not have to have a regular job ever again

One of the guys in my office was a cop before coming back on active duty. He had a partner who quit the KC PD to day trade..he was back on the beat in 6 months. I hope ur mistakes aren't killing u financially.

i think youd be better off playing poker online at least with that the money is somewhat in your hand.

Day trading is like a financial crack habit.

You would probably come out better in the long run just purchasing odds and ends penny stock and keeping your fingers crossed for a year or so.

Unfortunately, I have no idea which penny stocks is worth anything now.

Are you using E-trade or Ameritrade?

I typically make a little on a lot of trades, then lose my ass every so often on one.

It typically is a wash at the end of the year... but it's sure fun!

im using scottrade. so far it seems pretty easy, watch a particular stock for a while, wait for a dip, buy a little, in a few days it goes up a small percent, sell for a small profit. its better to do little by little; you arent making alot at first, but you minimize the risk and almost ensure at least a small gain. you gotta watch it every day though
