I wasn't fool, I just didn't have any trading experience, and like I said I made money, lost it, made, lost it... But I am now looking to future, if you have anything to say about that, you're welcome to!
Stocks only. I live in Canada but never actually traded on Toronto's market. I only traded on US markets.
I just had to read the first 4 words: I WAS DAYTRADING STOCKS. This clearly explaing why you are broke. Not only you blewup your account, you missed opportunities by being glued to a computer.
AIB, KRG, SNV, AHD,HLCS, SNSS, HITK, FOE +1000 more as I watched over 1200 stock at any time. I didn't use stops because I was in front of my laptop all the time. But my big losing trades were those that I shorted, held them overnight, and the next morning they started to skyrocket...NLST as an example. Shorted $5.75 covered at $7.50. One example: last July I bought 2000 shares of FOE for $2.00 and sold it for $1.98 2 hours later..Had I held on to them, I would have had over $16000 today...but I wasn't thinking investing.
