Quote from KevinK:

I guess it depends on what you consider luck and your risk tolerance. Indeed I lose some trades and win some trades but that doesn't make it luck, because I have been profitable for just about 2 years, and a 2 year luck spree is inpractical. If you would prefer risking a ton of your account to make small pennies on each share, go for it especially if you can do it. My account is over 500k so I have the ability to trade that way, but I don't see it as the most practical...Good luck trading

If this is true, I do not see why you started this thread. You trade Nasdaq for 2 years and you cannot figure out how and why some ppl still trade super thick stocks like MSFT? Just looking at the Level II I can tell the type of liquidity being provided every penny and the type of sizes being moved and I only recently started barely touching Nasdaq.
You mention risk and you're trying to imply that a super thick stock like MSFT has higher risk than some piece of crap IIJI? That's just silly. For MSFT to go down 1 point in an hour is a major crap out sell off while for IIJI to do the same is a dozen day traders panicking and dumping.

I started the thread out of curiosity, and to see how other traders were trading. I'm not implying IIJI is less risk, I meant that I had a greater risk tolerance and due to this risk tolerance, I have the ability to trade more risky, volatile stocks.
