A lot of people have the dream of making day trading their career and although day trading does have a number of risks making a living trading stocks is possible. To make a career from day trading the person needs to have a strong base of knowledge and it helps if they have a little bit of a sixth sense. Throughout this article how someone makes a career from day trading starring Marty Forex.
At the start of the work day Marty Forex decides to purchase a 100 shares of Forex-Trading Inc for by watching the trends Marty feels confident that this particular stock is on the rise. Turns out Marty is right as Forex-Trading Inc jumps up a full point before it is even lunch time. Marty decides to sell off his stocks in Forex-Trading before the end of the day and by doing so Marty is successful and makes a profit.
If the amount of profit that Marty Forex makes for this trade is $100 (obviously an amount simply for this scenario) he would most likely use half as account cover capital, and half as re investment. Of course, no one in the day trading game is doing any investing with $50; again, this figure is simply for illustration. If he makes five similar trades for the business days, with equally similar results, he will have made $500 of profit. Keeping with that theme, trading five days a week would net Marty $2500 of profit per week. (Commissions, overhead costs and other business expenses, realistically bringing the amount down to $2000 or less would reduce this figure.) This is still a nice bit of profit, considering that this is only one stock's trade performance. Marty Trader probably handles quite a few more trades than that in a day's time.
It is completely unheard of to have a trader bat 100% so lets look at a scenario where Marty Forex handles 10 stock trades per day with the same $100 profit. For this scenario we will assume Marty is successful on 30% of his trades so out of the 10 trades Marty completes he makes a $300 profit per day, times this by five and Marty is bringing home $1500 per week before expenses. Now if Marty can use the tools and resources that are out there his success percentage will increase which means more money to take home at the end of the week
Day trading is a skill and like any skill it is important that you get as much education and information before you begin to jump into the world of stock trading. For some who have that sixth sense that can pick the winner from the loser day trading can turn into a rewarding career.
