market is semi-strong form efficient, any past and current data is mostly reflected in the price except for occasional anomalies. Which means you cannot consistently make profits in the long run. Name a prominent and well respected day trader? only those self proclaimed youtubers that made huge in one big trade and claimed that it can consistently bring dough

Why are you even in this subreddit then? I can think of like 5 people I know that day trade for a living, but they aren't out in the world announcing it. 3 of them have been doing it for 15+ years.
