Greatest Daytrader(s) in the world

The question was who is the best <b>day</b>trader. None of those guys making half a billion a year are strictly daytraders.


Quote from DynamicReplic8r:

I'm not saying the guy's not successful. He sounds great. But, I would contend that he is probably not even close to the best trader in the world. Also, I'm pretty sure the question in the initial post of this thread specified that the answer should not be someone you know personally.

[edit] Alright so it says not someone unknown. I guess you could read that as meaning it has to be someone you know instead of it can't be someone no one has heard of.

Nah, T. Boone Pickens comes in every morning and goes long 20 billion in oil and then closes at the end of the day. Next day, rinse, repeat etc.

Duh, get some brains.
 
taowave - exactly.

we know what we are talking about and we know what is possible. i would not waste your time with a post that did not have something on topic.
 
look ... do as google on a gentleman named Zanger ... yes he has lost millions too

and yes he has kept overnights ... but gosh ... his past returns

even so have been in the clouds ... maybe his present returns

have come back to earth
 
Paul Rotter is one of the best active day traders out there doing about 250,000 roundturns on the bund futures.

I don't think that someone that makes less than half a billion a year should even be considered in the running for most successful trader.

.....

Of the top ten earners last year, the 10th still made upwards of 300 million.

Agreed.

Daytrading / scalping can be lots of fun but it won't be making you the big dollars. It is only a matter of time before you'll blow out, even that guy Rotter (and every time I hear his name I want to puke).
