amateurs have no chance

good point - the question is then why do people keep wasting time trying... and, is there any chance for success at all.

People like to dream big.

This also explains why so many people keep throwing money at lottory systems even when they know the chance of winnig is one in a few hundred million.
 
Why? Because every pro was an amateur. Gotta start somewhere

no.. you graduate from an ivy biz school and go straight to the street.

amateurs rarely have a chance to go pro... try put in a resume to them firms on the street.

but the point is this - you don't need to turn pro... you just need to play on the same side as the pros.

Scalping/day trading stats are extremely high of total failure for most as they think it will be easy to come to the markets and trade against those who have done over 100,000 trades? Many brokerages help add to the thoughts of easy money, easy to open an account. BUT having no fear of losing money is difficult for many to overcome.

..
stocks are too under-valued and we will go much higher (I have posted elsewhere about the Fed model and the current 10-year yield vs. the SP forward yield etc)... but by october there were already large number of amateur speculators on the rally train and the pros need to get rid of these people..

LOL, what is value? There is no value to any of this, whales only get interested in large fish and as other creatures get smaller they go after the smaller. Value is a joke, someone is going to push the market higher or lower, best to find ways to tailcoat. If you the only one at the party, it going to go against you, cha ching for others.
