I don't know why many people think that day trading is a gold mine. I mean, developing traders always feel this way. Probably because of the way it is being presented to them by these so called pros. With all my years of experience in this trading industry, I've learnt so many things, by personal experience and by studies. Day trading doesn't make you more money, rather you are being exposed to risk and capital lost.

I used to think this way before, when I started out my trading journey. I heard a lot about day traders and how good they are. I used to admire how these guys post their success online and how day trading has made them wealthy. I admired all of that, and I wanted to be like them. So, I started studying even more than before because I thought the more I read or study about the market, the more successful I would be.

I didn't just end with studying, I also followed these online gurus and subscribed to their telegram channels because I wanted to be like them. I Followed every instructions posted in the channel and I also registered with their brokers, because they always wanna get you to register with their brokers. So I did. because I needed to make this money daily and be like them.

Now after doing everything, I started following their signals sent to the channel, some calls played out but we were already late on the entry, while some calls went the other way completely and we lost a lot of money. At some point I figured out that these guys are making money off our trades, and that they are not even trading either, because they always come out successful, while their followers are losing money.

Now this doesn't bother them because even when you exit the channel, new people are still subscribing, why? because these guys ran ads on every social platforms, sending wrong information to the public, deceiving developing traders, making money off them while selling them dreams.

But the big question here is: can you make money as a trader? The answer here is yes! Then How can you do that?
