I have made 1500 bucks for day trading 3 days which is not bad at all as a side job. The lesson I learned here is that you got to have a discipline for this type of business. In plain English is that you need to close your transaction before 4 PM every day, win or lose. Period. My entire portfolio is all in short position except the two slut sisters Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Guess what? This is a classic example how Uncle Sam fucks up every thing. Uncle Sam uses these 2 companies to execute his policy. I, as a share holder can only bent over to take his huge prick. GM will be the next and let's wait and see. So help me God to make Dow drop 500 points and NASDAQ 100 points. I have lost my shirt by shorting stocks and desperately need to put some cloth back on. If an Atheist can say a prayer, you know how desperate I am.
