You are talking about the traders that jump on bullish markets, make money, and are lost when conditions change.... But there are daytraders that can trade all market conditions and any market (not just stocks), and do very well - wouldn't think there are many around though....
When asked about my job by people, I never recommend it....Why do people want to do this?....Seriously!...Also the burnout in daytrading over long periods is pretty real....
Most people would be better off finding an area of strength and improve on that and forget about fast money.....But I guess that's not human nature....Have to respect peoples choices....
