Survivor Day
Trading
By Ilan Levy-Mayer
I started as a commodity broker back in 1998, when com
missions of $25 per round turn for the E-minis were
considered a deep discount. I had the luxury of observing many
types of day traders and saw things from the sidelines that
most traders could not see during the heat of battle, one of
which is the importance of solid money management for the
long-term survival of day trade.
Day trading is by definition a trade that is initiated and
completed during the same trading day. In this wide category,
you will find many types of traders. On one end of the
spectrum are scalpers, who go for one or two ticks of profit several
times a day in trades lasting just seconds. On the other side
are speculators who stay in a position from the start of the day
until the close. One of the main appeals of day trading for all
types is that the trader goes home flat without having to worry
about positions. When the market closes, the day is done.
Money management, as the name implies, is applying
prudent principles to help conserve your trade (risk) capital.

Without risk capital to trade, a speculator does not have a chance…
