Most likely you will have a good loss every day, not profit, I hope you are ready for this morally?
Many good and expert traders get the profit in day trading but other just come to lose their money. If a person do not have knowledge for the day trading then they have to hold for longer.
The scalping method looks more interesting as long as we can do it, day trading is able to provide a balanced profit and we do not need to target a large percentage. I've enjoyed it all along and one of the keys is staying in touch with traders who have similar styles, we can not analyze ourselves every day.
