왜 장기적으로 보면 데이트레이더 중 10% 미만만 꾸준한 수익을 낼까? 🤔

fixed for you

Surgery and rocket science have extremely high barriers to entry requiring many years of optional school, plus real world experience as apprentices or juniors working directly under the leadership of more experienced people in the field. Yes, talent and intelligence is a requirement but even the best and brightest have to be properly trained. While I suspect less strict the same is true for institutional investors within the confines of company training programs and formal educational requirements.

Anyone can download Robinhood or Webull and call themselves a trader with 0 experience or training - there is functionally no barrier to entry for retail trading. Even if new traders seek out training there is very little in the way of high-quality formal training available leaving a gap for the influencers to prey on newcomers by selling sham courses for their own benefits, in turn creating even more confusion and doubt for the new retail investor. It requires quite of bit of personal drive to cut through the noise and bullshit. Most people just don’t have the drive honestly.

>Are you telling me day trading is far more complex than rocket Science?

Well I've never spoken to you, so it be great if you don't put words in our mouth.

But to answer the question. Day trading isn't more complex, but even rocket science has less options. You want to launch a rocket? Awesome. You build an engine like this, you build the rocket like this, and you launch it like this. Everyone agrees that's how you do it.

Trading? No one can agree on anything. It CAN be simple, if you find the profitable trader willing to give you the step by step. The Turtle Traders experiment proved that much, they took a handful of people and last I checked only 1 person, who admits he couldn't follow directions, wasn't set for life. Everyone else was fine.

The honest truth: trading is like anything else in life. It's more who you know than what you know. Know the right people and success is inevitable, don't know the right people and the task just got a whole lot harder.

I think you measure it wrong way, rocket science has a high success because people are filtered at the very beginning, so only best of the best are allowed to work with something serious. Traders must be filtered same way by profit, most are not good enough but the rest of them make a lot of money. When i graduated (my class had 18 people) only one person from my class got a medical degree and one guy works in oil industry as an engineer if i remember it correctly.

Trading is simple, people think they are smarter and get in trades against their strategy and blow their money and then blame other and the market. People are lazy whebn they do things for themselves - other things you mentions, all is good and higher success as they are accountable to others.
- success rate of people excercising and eating good things and better health is lower than trading. Again people are lazy.

Hmm decades of intense schooling with successful professional mentors at a cost of half a million dollars vs some moron who watches another moron for free on YouTube after a week and gives it a go. Tell you what. Find the group of people that paper trade for 8+ years before moving to live trading after having 1:1 paid specialized training and find out how many of those people are successful traders after 15 years.

What a stupid question.

I will make a wager with you as large as you like, with whatever odds you like.

If you take 100 random people off the street and ask them to do brain or heart surgery, they will have a lower rate of success than traders. And the people they operate on, will have a lower rate of living than being a successful trader.

Take 100 different people and have them build a rocker. I’d rather take my chances trading than getting in that rocket.

I’m telling you your example is stupid.

in day trading, you are not just competing against other humans, you are competing against yourself where the entry fee is purely financial, but the "success fee" is purely psychological.this totally different from other professions

Brain surgery has a 70+% success rate? What about all the people that failed to get into med school? And all the people that got into med school and failed while in med school? Wtf are you talking about?

I think the difference is those professions have structured paths, supervision, and strict systems. In trading, people are given unlimited freedom with real money before they’ve built discipline.
