One of the harsh and annoying realities of being a day trader is that somedays you will find yourself in a dog fight. It won’t be smooth, it won’t be easy, and it certainly will not be pleasant. At times, you’ll just need to fight to stay afloat and that’s okay. It’s normal. One of the biggest mistakes I see beginner day traders make is showing up to be a day trader with unrealistic expectations. People who are just getting started in the stock market and trading can find themselves completely shocked if they are unaware of how truly difficult it can be at times.

If you can understand this, you will be able to avoid those nasty surprises. Let me show you some of my personal day trading results that illustrate this very truth!
