"How do you respond when smart people that you like and respect say that one can make a living day trading, if only you learn enough and are disciplined enough with your "system"?"
My basic response is, "I believe you. Best wishes if you do it."
I looked into it a little when I started out. Did not do it - or even spend much time looking into it - because from what I could see if you're going to, it needs to be your full time job - and people who have told me they day trade take it that way. They have set times where they trade, 10-hour stretches at a time. They have dozens of trades going on at once and they use AH trading extensively.
Not for me. I have never had enough interest to even ask someone how they go about it. Lots of ways to make money in the market and if you tell me this is your way I'll believe you.
