Look at the stats - the vast majority of day traders lose their money. I'm sure a couple win, but most of them lose.
Actually, that's a phony stat. It may be true or it may not. It's one of those things someone threw out at one point sometime long ago and stuck to the wall and now every uses as the accepted truth.
And a good portion of that stat, whatever the true number may be, is because the lure of day trading - ie. fast and "easy" money - attracts a lot of idiots that do stupid things and blow out their accounts.
