> If you have a strong heart, you can buy and sell tsla daily, and with a 100K to play, go up and down some 5-10 K daily.
OK new idea, thanks.
I played with day trading for one day (about 10 years ago) and got burned for about $10k. I am on the west coast and i am a night owl and the best time for trading seems early in the morning EST, when I am usually still hitting the snooze button, if i am awake at all. if i am awake, i am usually too groggy to make any fast risky decisions. I feel that I need to find a way to fix my chronic insomnia first (suggestions welcome).
I pulled in more going long this past year than i ever made working a day job. I was not even expecting that to happen. I did pay off my home mortgage (I posted a thread a few days ago about that somewhere).
Personally my heart probably could not take the stress for day trades, but I have noticed the rocket ride is in steps. Goes up a day or so like a rocket, then drops as the bottom drops out, then comes right back again.
personally, I would consider a cool off in a mutual like VIGAX, as they are loaded with mostly winners, (including tsla)
