Morph, Leavitt was actually well-reasoned. CNN did a scare headline. Somebody here mentioned last night the 67 of 68 loser number. As the article points out, thats a single firm with a push toward whatever was going to make THEM money, not at all (necessarily) the result expected by the typical at-home trader. Having said that, the success rate is likely still under 10%. But guess what: it was the same 3-5 years years ago for those of us around before the current crowd "invented" stock market day trading and the same for commodity day traders for generations. Hint: no one is printing money and giving it away. Alan
