I day traded for about 6 months last year and it
definitely is a full time job, you have to analyze charts, moving
averages and pick your strategies but you can make some good returns if
you focus. I used to listen to Daytrading Rock Star (I still do off and on) and his radio show is cool during the day to help you feel
connected to other guys that are trading. You can make money off of
$500-$2,000 it depends on your methods. If you trade options you get
more bang for your buck but I suggest starting out with simple bid/ask
trades before going into greeks and option jargon. I made some good
trades and then some bad ones and in the end for me at this moment I
don't have the time to follow things like I should so I focus on
dividend stocks to get a steady return.
