The ideal, expert trader should look like this...regardless of it's a good day, or a not so good day

Yeah but deep inside, they are still using looking like what I showed. I am showing a trader's inner-self. LOL

Bill Clinton is a VERY creative guy with that cigar...you have to give him that. :) Too bad his wife didn't win. We could've had him for another 4 or even 8 years.
:(


No doubt Billy Boy is a boss whose screwed more women than i ever will, but its hard for me to be upset over Trump winning when he has already made me so much money, in the first couple months his twitter feed was a gold mine, hed shit on a company or pump one up and if you were on it right away it was free money, hes lost alot of his effect now though as the market gets used to him shooting his mouth off every other day.
 
I am just curious about how others day trade. Do you buy and sell stocks with certain criteria, such as above 10+ dollars or more.... How do you decide to enter and exit a trade?? If you don't mind sharing.

Most is automated. I don't day trade stocks, long term stocks/commodities/hedged, can be under $10 so long as I can hedge. Building a trading system when starting out takes great deal of years as you have limited knowledge, read all that you can but start with charting, if you can't chart, it will much harder IMO. Concentrate on risk first before entry, using chart pattern learn when not to put on trades.

Most time am thinking of new challenges.

 
I check my account near the opening bell, but I never do any trading then. I check my greeks and then I wait until about 11:00 AM to open a daily trade. I then set my closing orders and check back around 3:30. I probably look at things for about 30 minutes a day. Then, I start the whole process over the next day. Rinse and repeat!
 
1. wake up
2. login to my futures account
3. patiently wait until there's volatility
4. remember that there is never any volatility because of the fed
5. cuss out janet yellen and log off

that's how most days go for me

Hate Janet Yellen, the most useless and ineffective Fed chairman ever. Can't believe they replaced Bernake with even a worse one.
