How much are you making trading NOW?? POLL

Consistant trading, wether discretionary or systems based. Don't splatter yourself all over the mkt. Look for a small number of names that have decent price excursion and large volume. I trade NVDA and GE every day. Both can absorb 2-3k shares easily. Take the time to get to know your stocks, maybe you'll see something you don't like, drop it and find another. Do multiple trades. Scratches, small losses, small wins, big wins.
 
The real question is, how much do you get to keep after your wife and your daughter have a go at your bank account... :D
 
There are ways and means for one to achieve the top group...

For example, I always have a good breakfast before sitting down to trade :)

I feel pretty fortunate if I make $100 to $200.00 a day.

Don,

There are gurus out there who would be happy to get half of that amount, in order to teach you to make half as much or even less - do you want names? :)

I doubt that many people will disclose their earnings in a public forum/survey. IMHO a good trader should be able to do well provided they are properly capitalized. This capitalization requirement is very important and I think that many people go into trading with inadequate starting capital. Provided that you have adequate capital and a consistant and disciplined approach you should do well, even in the current market. In another thread someone mentioned that they were doing 5K a week on a few trades: this number is feasible with a large capital position and a few smart and disciplined trades per week.
 
In this market I feel pretty good. Dumped BEAS for 11.19 around 7.45. Figured from 10.76 open that was probably all it was going to get without some catalyst, and I didn't expect any.
