If I quit day trading, I suppose I will still be participating in the markets in some way. Most likely swing trading.

I probably won't get rich quick, but maybe I'll get rich slowly. Maybe I'll also find some other vocation or career path that will be better for me.

It's possible that trying to get rich quick is what have prevented my success so far. Just think about where I'd be today if I started trading far more conservatively 10 years ago.



I admire your persistence.

Good luck on your quest!

What is suppose to change with Swing Trading? its all the same.

Your job is to make money every year day trading. PERIOD. There is no time period when that might happen.
The problem you having is your seeking confirmation to find another trader who is making money yearly. No need to search, they will not give you their edge anyway. No need to search further, ticks move everyday, so someone is making money.

So stop looking for help and just trade the charts. That is the best you can do.

Noone will ever help you or I. So it is what it is. We are ALL on our own. And noone will provide a track record of success, so you are on your own.
