Day Trading is Very Risky.
Virtually All Day Traders have lost their day trading balance at some point.
Do not day trade the stock market with money you cannot afford to lose.
Expect to lose your day trading balance a few times as everybody does.
Day trading is a very lonely job just you and your day trading app
You Do need plenty of Patience to stay in a stock market trade for a month and not close the trade during the month.eg for swing trading a stock.
Do Not start Day Trading if you cannot save money
Do Not start Day Trading if you have an impulsive or addictive personality as you will lose all your money many times over.
Day trading can cause poverty through continuous losing trades.
Most people lose money day trading because they can’t save money so they start with a 100 quid and 10% of 100 is 10 quid and take continuous very risky trades and lose all their money.
People also lose money cause they have no patience eg they can’t sit still for 5 minutes etc so they start looking at candlesticks and technical analysis and stock indicators etc.

Why people lose money day trading.
They don’t let the stock market do what the stock market does eg they don’t give the stock market the full month of option swing trade because they get impatient and sell trade early and then they try to make money on the stock market themselvesinsteadof allowing the stock market to make them money.
Another reason people lose money on the stock market is because during a month long option trade with no stop loss on trade the trade can lose 80-90% of its value and the chart not move for 2 weeks so they are in a losing trade the trade islosing90% and the chart is doing nothing so they get impatient and close the trade and lose 90% of their money and they blame the stockarket .
In that scenario remember let the stock market do what the stock market does.

Market Gap Up @ Market Gap Down.
The Fastest Money in Day Trading isn’t in
Day Trading.
The Fastest Increase in Trading Balance is in Swing Trading Options -
The Trade - Swing Trading the Overnight Market Gap - No Stop Loss Trade - All Or Nothing Trade - High Risk High Reward v High Risk of Losing Your Trading Balance -
The Trade Only Takes 7 minutes -
Eg 5 mins to check the previous 5 overnight stockmarket gaps and decide which way they want to predict the overnight gap eg long eg green candlestick or red shorting the stock
Then 1 min to buy or sell the No Stop Loss Trade and the the stockmarket closes and they wait for 17 and a half hours until the stockmarket opens if the trade is made from Monday to Thursday but if the Trade is made on a a Friday the trade is stilla 7 min trade but on a Friday there is a 65 hour wait between the 1 minute it takes to make the trade and the 1 minute after the 65 hour wait between the stockmarket close and open and the persons trading balance is updated.
The trade requires
Money the person can afford to lose which they usually will
Patience which most people don’t have
No Stop Loss on Trade
And the ability to acknowledge the that the trade is very risky and access the risk of the trade and accept the trade anyway
The Trade is Predicting which way the stock chart indicator will go when the stock market re-opens 17.5 hours later. The person makes this trade prediction at about 20.55pm having spent approx 5 minutes looking atthe past 2 or 3 days day trading charts to see which way the stock market gapped eg up or down by checking the gaps between market close and market open etc looking at the the stock market closes until the stock market reopens.
Eg if a person is trading a tech giant Option Call Buy trade for example eg they are making money on the green candlestick on the stock market in the states where the stock market in the states opens at 14.30pm UK time zone and closes at 9pmUK time most week day’s etc.
