Dave,

I am uneasy, I think, because of the career uncertainty. I traded initially with Schwab, and at the end was profitable 11 out of my last 12 days. However, the slow execution and reporting killed me in a trade, so I switched to a day trading firm with level II data, etc.

I basically reversed my results. I found the level II data misleading and I was making way too many trades. Near the end of my experience, I was dreading the start of the trading day. Not an enjoyable existence.

I would probably be better off just walking away, but in the back of my mind I still think I can do this, and I don't want this to beat me!
