Is day trading worth it?

I'll ask you again. How much are you willing to pay to be proven otherwise? If the DIY home trader is such a myth within your circles of fund managers and institutional traders then certainly that should be worth something to people with high disposal income, no? So how about you put your money where your mouth is and stop looking like an idiot.

I don't deal with gamblers who try to moneterize everything. sad, really.

surf, your writing is just amazing; clearly a pro.

telling dustin, and rally..not to mention myself...3 of the rarest guys who have posted countless blotters to help show retail daytrading is possible..... that they are fos is completely trollish. why not ask nicely how some of us have done it? this behavior from you, and guys like "experiencedjoe" are part of the reason we just reduced our blotters and posts.
 
Why I like traders so much - they're trusting.., and trust their eyes

it sarcasm..., rest assured

One would hope... Yet, until clarified many followers may mistakenly take those comments as PD validation.

There is enough mis-information disseminated on ET as it is.

Trolls, shills, stealth vendors, rabble-rousers, pundits, authors etc... all alluding to being successful traders without verification can easily misguide inexperienced newbies.

Regarding thread topic:

Yes, profitable Day Traders exist, of course they do. It is ludicrous to think otherwise. albeit, imho, there is a greater majority of failed Day Traders. That doesn't mean that it can not be accomplished.

Not all Traders need to network to be profitable.

If someone pays, what guarantee can you offer to not do a runner ? Also, why do you need a payment anyway, can you not withdraw all you need from the market ? This should be easy for a successful home trader. All you have to do is constrain the market capacity and keep it on the quiet. That way you can make a killing without anyone ever knowing about it. Do it in the asian session to ensure most of the market makers are away sleeping and their algo sentries should be easy to beat. You could be in there cleaning out the market maker's account before they know what's happening.

I am getting my ideas from the pro home traders. Until this thread, I didn't know constraining the market capacity using the modest means of a home trader can be highly profitable. Naturally I can't divulge the details because a dilution of the capacity could be disastrous.

thanks. but its super weak of you to reduce your posts because you are questioned-- it was weak of me to have stopped the surf report due to threats, but I don't need to hassle.

I think part of the issue here is definitions--- Day traders close every position at the close--- I would surmise that Dustin, Lescor and yourself are basically swing traders and long term investors with the majority of your assets who day trade. There is a huge difference for what I am trying to say here. peace, surf
