Re: Is Daytrading Right For You?

my story...

i came to daytrading from a contrarian investor perspective. for example, I loaded gold in 98 and 99 when everybody hated it and as a big fan of the graham/buffet approach.

but with futures you can't rely on fundies etc. you gotta use TA (or quant analysis etc.)

i did terribly the first year, then started to get profitable and am now consistently profitable, after learning "with blood".

i've been managing some OPM (other people's money) recently, and also started a trade mentoring business, so I have my hand in this market in several ways.
