So after doing a TON of research I rearranged my schedule and decided to try my hand at day trading.

I decided to start off really small, so I only put in .02 BTC to see where I can go with it.
I've been using only cryptopia.

After three days...I'm up to .0338711 BTC! Wao! I'm a rich man! lol...

I was pleasantly surprised that a simple strategy brought steady gains.
I spent a lot of time trying to figure out indicators of coins that were about to be pumped. I looked at trade volume, spikes in value, market cap, buy/sell order history, etc.
I am going about this very cautiously, so when I felt like a coin was about to or in the beginning to middle stages of being pumped, I would buy it, and right away put in a sell order that was slightly higher for a small gain. I tried my best to not put in too much and resell for a lot higher and the result was steady (but tiny gains). As I get comfortable with this I will probably try larger investments.

I know I'm very amateurish but it feels good to get better at something yeah?

Anyone had similar experiences in day trading?

keep up the good mind set. it will reward you well.

That has always been an advantage of having a strategy if you want to trade, and you certainly cannot have a strategy if you do not learn the basic things you need to know when it comes to trading, using indicators and analyzing the market.

One thing a lot of people always find very hard to achieve because they are too lazy to learn. With that kind of attitude, he will always be able to build confidence around his strategy and make better decisions for himself in the long run.
