    Now you're starting to piss me off. You obviously don't know the fucking limit to your arrogance. Why the fuck are you even here if you believe everyone is a loser, you friggin' idiot? Just piss off into your own universe then.

  2. I never said that everyone is a loser.
    I just said that day trading is almost impossible to live on. And that triggered most of you day traders.

    I am not arrogant, you are just too easy to challenge.

  3. What is interesting to notice is that a profitable day trader wouldn't even bother to reply to this post.

    They would be making that much, that they would see this post, they would probably agree on the fact that is very hard to do it and would carry on.

    On the contrary, someone that is trying very hard to make day trading to work would be easily triggered.

    Just by the fact that they would realize, reading this thread, that they are wasting too much time on something that is almost impossible to do.

    They are in the jouney of believing that they can be part of that elite of day traders, and since they are not, they would attack me with all sort of insults.

    Projecting their frustration at me, calling me all sort of names, just because I pointed the very simple fact that they are wasting their time at day trading.

    You really are a dumbass. Everyone here ALREADY KNOWS more than 90% of daytraders are losers, so what the fuck was your motive when you created this thread? What, you wish everyone would bring out their dirty laundry and display it in full view? Are you such a sleezy callous bastard?

    And yet most of us, knowingly or unknowingly, put up with your crap out of kindness, but you just don't know when to shut the fuck up. Are you that retarded? Now get lost.

  5. I think that I am doing you a favour.

    First you will get mad at me, but hopefully you will realize that your anger is coming from your lack of skills. Specially at day trading.

    Then you will leave gambling for other addicts and move on to something that wouldn't consume your time.

    It is like getting out of a religion. It is hard to do, but years later you will realize what I am doing.

    Addicts are hard to change.

    And my mama was right when she said "once an idiot, always an idiot". Now don't be an idiot to take that literally. It means the real idiot is he who doen't recognize he's an idiot.

    BTW for a guy who only makes $1500 a month, I don't think you're in a position to help others. But thanks for the "favor" all the same.

    79% of businesses fail in first year.
    that leaves 20% of businesses survive til next year
    then68% fail within 2 years.

    there is only a dozen world champions in boxing in different weight classes.
    meanwhile there are 10000s of boxers in the game

    the difference between other things that also fail and trading is that we are in the ring with mike tyson on our first day. and we basically get smoked left and right by 1000 mike tysons at the time.

    Addicts you say .... Drawdown Addict!

    So other than feeling superior and the need to help "addicts" what is the real real point to starting this topic?

    Which BTW has been done over and over before.

    I know you are good and here is a question for you:

    If you don't day trade, what and how do you trade?

    You gave me a hard time on my old posts so I tried not to respond to your posts directly but I have to agree with you on this.

    I know someone doing very well day trading TQQQ/SQQQ and is too busy to read this.

    Count me as one of those who is having difficulty making day trading a real money maker.

    After paper traded for over a year, though profitable on paper, I am not sure it will be profitable if I go live again or that it is scalable.

    Truth is often painful.
