Who is more profitable?

[alistera]

They are all profitable equally, just most only know one method and little about the others, I actively trade all styles and it's purely about capital in play (investing) compared to effort (day trading).

I write in various places and just gave them the single 'trick' to the markets that allows them to bypass the 5,000hr breakeven to be profitable from day one, and precisely because it shouldn't work it does work.

I don't agree. Each style has different requirements. Depending on the qualifications of the trader, he has to choose what works best for him. It is statistically almost impossible that the three styles give the same returns. Only one can will fit as being the best.

Use the hours/day/week chart to trade

1. This web site is for "elitetrader".

2. The votes are aspirational.

3. Not that many Warren Buffett types live here.
