I'm a Daytrader, I don't Constantly read news etc.
I have a "basket" of about 12 stocks I know intimately, and play one or two at a time. My day starts at 6:30 am Pac, I usually trade till 9ish, tee off for 9 holes or whatever, - back to trade the last hour, noon till 1pm.
- I don't own a cell phone ! !
Daytrading is more for sport .
I also have retirement funds that is my long game, I have Apple since $70, it's split twice since I bought it, similar with Amzn, In and outta NVDA, MSFT etc.
