More I read, more I see that trading in a long term is not profitable. So, I wonder are there any profitable traders that make money on the market constantly and sustain decent lifestyle? I am not looking for big money, let's say 2k or 3k per month would be enough. Is this something doable? Is there any strategies to become a trader that makes this amount of money?
Most popular traders are actually long-term investors, they hold longer and get the best returns. Day trading, or short-term trading, can be profitable too, but you don't see many names in the news because most of them keep a low profile. You won’t know if you can profit until you try it yourself. But trust me, being profitable in day trading is possible unless you treat it like gambling.
