# of current daytraders...

World wide

All day traders: Millions

Profitable day traders (able to make a living): Less than 100,000

 

Now, everybody have you heard
He's gonna buy me a mockingbird
And if that mockingbird won't sing
He's gonna buy me a diamond ring
And if that diamond ring won't shine
He's gonna surely break this heart of mine
And that's why I keep on tellin' everybody.....

I love being an Elite troll after a few single malt's!

I agree less than 100K daytraders are profitable.

What a great thread.....not.

I guess it's better than the Brandonf/ChaosNSX dog and pony thread.

 

Im a prop trader (do it for a living) I carry things overnight. cashing in at the end of the day doesnt mean much. you need hold somtimes.


I also thought I read on don bright's site it said between 5000-10k day traders out there

 

bright has around 450-500 traders
echo is about half that
assent is around 350 traders

 

What informative posts you make....not.

What a putz you are. YEAH.

I'll go with the median number... 200,000 day/prop/professional traders.

Thanks for all the informative info on my question... and then theres TURDo... or TARDo... whatever.
