Swing trading is MORE stressful for me than Day Trading

    When I try to swing trade, like I am right now, it makes me crazy. I stress out after hours, over the weekend, etc... check every news source and such.

    When I day trade I am flat at the end of the day and none of that happens.

    anyone else?

  4. When you are not making money it's stressful. When you are making money it's not stressful. I'm not sure the medium matters too much.
