Wanna know how Day Traders make a living? Watch this.

[Ahmad]

I notice most people don't seem to fully understand just how day traders make a living... So I decided to explain it.

It's at times quite a lot.

Especially if you invest in companies that keep it steady for a long time like Apple, Microsoft, Snapchat and other big companies for literally nothing. Just gotta invest high from the start to see some real profit to be honest.

gr8 stuff yet I can't do this stuff at this moment sadly

Don't you EVER put Snapchat next to Apple or Microsoft. SNAP is a TERRIBLE stock.

And honestly I'd just reccommend saving until you hit the milestone of $5000. 1% of $5000 is 50$, which honestly is not bad at all.

Well snap's stock kinda grew some years ago like a lot now it's just trash comparing to other giants tbh

Also above $3000ish is usually "enough" to get started from what I've seen or heard but still meh..

You have quite the range of topics for videos.

[Exclusified]

Damn. Really wanna study investing properly.

[Dacic3.]

I don't get it. So, stocks are really a thing or just a hole for the money. Is there a specific way that you can invest in a company? Any place on the forum stocks are discussed in-depth?

Just watched the whole video and wanted to say some things:

The video doesn't really talk about how DAY TRADERS make money. They make money by buying and selling securities day by day. Imo it's less about investing and more about trading using leverage and small price movements in the value of certain stocks, though of course it is a form of investing. The title of should more accurately be "Wanna know how Investors make a living? Watch this." Also saying "the strategy to not lose that money is to sell before you lose that money" is sort of "common sense" but not strategy I would follow. If you sell at a 2% lost, you still lose money. I just straight up believe that one should ever sell at a lost. Basically, your video is fine as it is, but your thread title and what you wrote in your OP is not exactly day trading.

Also, some very important thing about stocks is NEWS and CONFIDENCE especially when it comes to day trading (though of course is a big deal in investing as well). If a company is receiving bad publicity, people lose confidence and the stock tends to fall (though I assumed this was left out because this video is about math not that kinda stuff).

You can think of stocks as like a stake/share in a company. If you hold all the stocks to a company, you basically own it. A company's actions are usually decided by a board of major stockholders.

My range of interests is long.

The 2% loss thing wasn't even meant to be in the video, but my rambling kind of led to it. If I made a video talking about how to stop/minimize a loss I would hit more on it but this was just a short summary video not a class room lecture.

Interesting video, I've always wanted to play around with it but I just dont have the capital to do it.. If I were to start I would want to start with at least $1k.

You can always start with paper trading.
