Most people who become full-time, self-employed day traders do so by accident. They start out by opening up a brokerage account, usually to gain access to their IRA. They may switch out a few stocks, or even put in a little money to play with. The more they trade, the wiser they think they are, and they start to make more and more trades. When the economy was booming and every trade was a winner, we all looked like geniuses!
This, however, is not the way to learn day trading. You don’t learn to swim by walking into shallow water, into deeper water, and then you are a swimmer! It doesn’t work like that. It takes training and education and trial and error. Without that, you will drown, or in the case of day trading, you will lose all your money.
It is essential, that if you are going to be a day trader, you have to learn day trading safely. There are a few ways to do that if you are patient and can put your pride aside for awhile because there is a lot to learn.

If the bear market of 2008 taught me anything, it was that investors like you and me are not getting the advice we are paying for. The fact is that it is easy to make money in stocks when the market is going up and just as easy to lose it when it is going down.
That’s why the first thing you need to do before you invest any of your money is determine if that market is going up or down. It’s probably about half of the equation in whether you will make any money in the stocks you pick. And that’s why you can do just as well as your broker picking stocks if you study what the overall market is doing.

Have you thought about trading on the Forex Markets? Do you understand what is involved in the process? Forex is another word for the foreign market exchange. When you trade on the stock market, you are trading on the value of different companies. When trading on the Forex markets, you are trading on the value of different currencies from around the world.
Just like in the stock market, you hope to buy currency when it is low and sell the currency when it is high. Currencies change value almost constantly, hence you have a greater number of opportunities to make or lose more money (you hope to make more money, of course). Three areas where Forex trading happens in great amounts include Tokyo, London, and New York. Many locations besides these exist around the world.

Stuart McPhee and Daryl Guppy discuss some trading basics.
DARYL: I was working in Hangzhou in China a few weeks ago, and I said to the audience, “There will be a whole lot of people who will disappear at the end of this bull market, and you’ll find them driving taxis.” And there was a small chuckle at this.
Then I returned to Singapore, and I jump in a taxi and actually just finished doing some work with CNBC, and the driver was talking and he said, “Oh, you’re in financial markets.” He said, “I used to be in financial markets. I was a broker in 1996 in Malaysia.” And he’s still driving a taxi now.
