I wouldn't go quite that far, as some (maybe 1%) of the Daytraders on the BB really are doing well. But they are often very gifted and have been former MM's or people with lots of contacts.

I agree that it is a really tough way to make a living. And 95% of Daytraders last summer on the BB lost their shirts (or part of it).
You all remember, I'm sure.

Selective investing on quality stocks with a better than 80% chance of success are what I choose.

Success to me means at least a 300% gain within 6 months.

Even if it takes a few weeks or months, I buy dips on stocks I really believe in, and because I have DD'd them, I have little worry they will eventually go up bigtime.

Some will only double, but others will do an MRPS or WLGS and go up 8-10 times or more.
