I've found that out, too. Most people who don't really know anything about trading, think a daytrader is someone who makes
200 or so trades a day. That was the impression they got
from reading the paper.
maybe tell them you are a modern pickpocket who got that edge and works - no - lurks - thru the internet - packing huge bunches of other peoples hard earned money in his deep evil pockets - and all this in the blink of an eye.

i get it, the pigeonhole thing. kind of like when people hear the word 'christian' they automatically associate you with big haired televangelists and a fear of science.
taking unfounded assumptions and crushing them into dust is one of my favorite hobbies
