    Daytrading and Taxes

    I trade the same 2 stocks every day, every day without fail. I then go to work after the opening hour. I'd like to see someone tell me I'm not a trader when I have 25 thousand transactions in the same stock in a year because I have a job too. I've elected market to market so that I can...

    How many stocks do you trade each day on average?

    2, if they don't move I don't trade. It used to be 3 but one of them split and it sucks now. I think this may cause a problem when they both hybridize sometime in the next few months.

    Trader P/L 2006

    178 net on 5052. That 20 cent winner on 26 shares was sweet, j/k. Damn damn damn, I won't be posting another screen cap, long story short, my screen cap software uses the F6 key (when open), which is also my smart swipe buy button. Arg.

    Self-sabotage. Why do we suffer and how to eliminate it.

    I never made any money until I had a full time job at the same time. Now that I don't need the money it's easy to conform to my criteria and out of control plans. But as I ramped up volume for the first time over months, the fear of loss made my trades too careful, too conservative. I know...

    The Real Cost of being a Proprietary Equity Trader

    I also average around 2 cents (4 cents really because you have to buy and sell each share), and my % has always been between 63-73%. When I get up around 70% I know I'm being too conservative. But I only trade 45 min a day and 400,000 shares per month. Is that even respectable? I don't ask...
