How many people make a living day trading? Pic related says you can't make any money, but I'm hoping he's mostly wrong.

i make upwards to $30 a day trading shitcoins and stocks with what little NEET money I have. Its not a recommended lifestyle for everyone, but I only need around $10 a day to survive.. No GF, no car, no expenses

Depends really how much time you invest in it; and how good you are.

last week i bought 5k worth of shares the next day it was worth 6k. if i invested 50k i would have made 10 grand

first time i ever bought shares. the cool thing is if it goes down just hold onto it until it goes back up. if u are buying something like 5k worth at a time you make enough to cover any trading fees as well as a few $ profit

Is that McCauley Culkin?

It depends on the person and how they trade. I usually make a good 15-30% of my initial investment by the end of the week through daily day trading. Trading with around 10 grand lands me at about $1,500-$3,000 a week. You need to set goals, set caps, set where you plan to sell if it drops and sell if it moons, etc. You really have to put the time into it, but it's nice because I get to be my own boss. On this asshole's scale I probably make next to nothing, but to me I feel like I make a decent profit. There are days where I'll make 15-20% of my initial investment in a day, like said, and there will be days where I make as low as 1-3%. There will be days where I lose a little, but because I invest in multiple stocks and have the same procedure for all of them, I've found that I have a good enough success rate to negate those shit investments and get around them.

You truly have to know what you're doing, and don't become married to a particular investment. Sell if it starts to drop too much, don't just hang on with your life like said. It's better to cut it loose and focus on your other trades to minimize losses and maximize gains.

And why does 'pic related' believe this?

Unless you have millions to invest you could probably make just as much with a regular job except you dont risk losing everything you have every day

Invest if you have sums of money worth investing.

Please bear in mind some of the best hedge funds in the world only expect 20-40% ANUAL returns

any cunt saying they earn that every week on here is full of shit and you deserve to lose everything if you believe their

this guy for example is probably the best trader in the world, I suggest you follow his advice he could teach buffet a thing or 2 with his 100000% anual returns

why not trade with 100 grand instead then... seems silly to leave all that money on the table when you could apparently be making 10-30k a week instead
