Re: Transition 9 to 5 to Daytrader

There are two types of daytraders. First there are the Intraday position traders who try to catch one or more main swings of the day. Then there are the the scalpers who's average trade ls less than 3 minutes. Scalping seems to be the most difficult and many in the industry says it can't be done.
The previous thread dealed mostly with the intraday position type. I 'd like to focus more on the scalping. How much screen time is required to become a consistently profitable scalper ?
