Your results may differ from back-testing statistics. Intraday market strategies comprise part of our market strategy portfolio. This does not mean we recommend them, or “day trading” to everyone. Intraday trading requires a higher degree of accuracy, platform, consistency, capital, and discipline to use profitably. In a 2014 UC paper that studied 3.7 billion TSE trades from 1992-2006, only 3% of “day traders” profited on an average day. On August 19, 2019 the San Paolo School of Economics published a study tracking at 1,551 retail traders for at least 300 short-term futures trades in iBovespa contracts. They found only 1.1% posted higher average net returns than the Brazilian minimum wage over a year. Though we lack studies of a comparable scope on US traders on US markets, we estimate the % of profitable retail intraday traders to be under 8%.
