    Not true. As a day trader your biggest edge is maneuverability. You are able to get in and out and in, unlike the big boys. Look for strategies that you can use this edge.

  2. Thanks, that's quite decent of you. But I would actually prefer to read a hard copy version rather than a pdf file. As it is, I spend far too much time on the computer, and the softcover will be available soon enough. Even so, I appreciate the offer. :)

    I have that book here and I have read half of it. At on strategy. I have backtested Technique 6 over the same time period he tested it in. It is called Stocks less than $5. I download all the data and tried it all about, but the results were not even near his! He had an claims to make an average profit of 11.2% per trade! I had something less than 1%. Huge difference.
