Day trading success stories can be inspiring, but viewing them with a critical eye is essential.
While some stories might reveal valuable trading strategies or approaches, most paint an unrealistic picture of day trading as easy money.
Nothing could be further from the truth. Day trading is a complex and demanding skill.
The biggest red flag is that we often only hear about successful traders rather than the countless others who lose money.
You’ll notice that 99% of these ‘success stories’ aren’t independently verified (broker/PAMM/copy trading accounts etc), making it almost impossible to distinguish genuine success stories from potentially misleading ones.
Why don’t traders talk about losses? Because ‘selling the dream’ sells courses, signals, mentorships etc…
