<<<I guess I still don't see the value of day-trading with so much risk just to feed the government. "Splain it to me again.>>> Then why be in the market at all. If you don't want any risk and if you do have a gain you just give it to uncle sam then why invest. The reason is to make money. Day trading is very hard and people can make a living this way but it is a stressful and dangerous game to play. Making 5/8 on a 13 dollar stock is very good and is exactly what the day traders try to do evry day. For if they do they will be very happy at the end of the year. Even if EFII dropped, the whole $147,000 is not at risk unless it goes to 0. But most daytraders are out long before that.
