again, the amount of $ you make should not be tied to a certain methodology.

but I do agree that day trade is probably not the most efficient method, since stock prices seem to follow a random walk within such a short period and the gain/loss distribution is approximately normal.

for periods significantly longer than inter-day, say 2 months vs 2 years, the behavior is very different.
you can read stuff about chaos theory to understand the completely different market dynamics

I don't like long term only because I think life is so short.  But if I have 1000 years to live, I would love to hold my stocks for 40 years.

making money has never been my goal to invest

I am really more interested in the philosophies of investing
and it's amusing to see how people can behave so illogical and irrational when it comes to the market

true. if i have 500 yrs to live, i will look at 20 yrs chart.

for me, i prefer day trade or month trade. my mom and bro taught me alot of trading stock too. i just start trading stock since february and i like it more so i can hve more spare time to enjoy life i don't need to be buffet. my goal is just to gain better than my past full time. haaha.

it is hard to say about long term holding. there is recession almost every 10 yrs / 20 yrs and there are so many good stocks around for short term trading.

a monkey could make a million dollars if he were given 100K to start with in February

How do you make 10 times the return, when the market is up 50%?

你要先去了解咩係 MARKET﹐乜野叫做 MARKET﹐而個 INDEX 係點黎。。。 如果你咩都唔識﹐好難慢慢解釋你聽﹐去 SFU/BCIT 讀返科 ECON 先喇﹐越識得多﹐越了解自己知得其實好少﹐只有自大狂先至會以為自己已經識晒架咋。

Actually, you can do it using things like call/put options or derivatives.
