Blain,
I feel that the market is actually suitable for day trades because of the extreme volatility. I think if I had more experience and no day trades limit, I would really do well under current market situations where a stock price could move 10 to 20%.

And thank you Yng for linking to my blog. You have been an inspiration.

Yep, trading is tough! There’s a lot to learn. But with time, it gets better.

Stick with it and keep writing down those lessons. Don’t forget that this market is extremely difficult to trade and even the pros are struggling to keep up.

In crappy markets it is sometimes better to sit in cash and simply read more books until the market can start to turn north.

Good luck!
