It's the beginning of another day of trading. Someone on CNBC is yapping about some stock. You're feverishly scanning all your sources, searching for that money making trade. You zone in on what appears to be the one. Moments later, the demons start coming out.
Panic begins to set in.
You try everything to exit the same trade that a few minutes earlier seemed like a sure thing. Almost all day traders will fail. Day trading is unlike swing trading or core trading or any other type of trading for that matter. You can't use the same tools and tactics for day trading. That's the mark of a true professional.
