Yea if youre messing with margin trades... Its best to do short swings... quick money grab and gtfo
i was crafting up a little fun TSLA day trading project since i'm super bored. it would be with a commission free broker and a non-pdt account. 21 shares per trade ($5k), and just do several .40.-60 cent scalps (roughly $10 @ 21 shares)
profit target would be really low, like $40-50 a day, and
stop. if on lightspeed, this wouldn't be possible because of minimum share fees. keep risk low, and profit target low (as they are tied hand in hand)
it seems silly, but the true power of this would come from staying disciplined and doing it every single day for a few months and no other perfect time to start than the new year. might start next week and cook up a google sheet to track profit/losses
edit: it would really scratch my trading itch too. also make me stay the fck away from options
