    I've tried. Signal/noise is incredibly low. Not worth the 10 minutes of thinking out and typing a post, really. ET is a basketcase as far as a discussion resource.

    Study says Daytrading for a living is virtually impossible.

    1. Almost every study is limited sample. And it's a nice, big, statistically significant sample here. 2. You have a point about retail vs non-retail but do you think Citadel will let researchers study their shit? If you want you can change the conclusion to "retail daytrading impossible"...
