DAY-TRADING<br />

Answer 48<br />

S I X<br />

D. 1, 2, 3, and 4. Give yourself four points <strong>for</strong> choosing the right answer.<br />

In day-trading, profits are smaller and expenses are higher. There are<br />

long periods of “dead time,” but when a signal comes, you must recognize<br />

it instantly and trade without pausing to ruminate. Losses are generally<br />

smaller than in position trading because losing trades are closed<br />

out no later than at the end of the day.<br />

Answer 49<br />

C. 1 and 4. Give yourself four points <strong>for</strong> choosing the right answer.<br />

Day-trading demands a much higher degree of concentration than<br />

position trading because it does not leave you time to think. Impulsivity<br />

is deadly because you have no time to correct your mistakes. Daytrading<br />

is an expensive proposition that generates high commissions and<br />

leads to purchases of software, data, and other tools, that are the main<br />

reasons why brokers and vendors love it. To succeed, you must face<br />

your impulsivity and work to reduce it. A written trading plan is a useful<br />

step in that direction.<br />
