Next, you failed at day trading although most likely you had a few year lucky streaks.

I'm curious why you stopped being a floor trader and which years were your lucky years at day trading. Also, did you trade the same trading instruments as a floor trader and then as a day trader ?

Maybe the above is rhetorical because I don't expect you to reply nor answer the above questions.
