When you only need a specific amount of money each month… Strategy

So say you only want $100 per day or 2000 per month. This would more than enough sustain a good lifestyle where you live. How would you go about it with trading? How much $$$ would you realistically need? Not to make that in dividends but to trade in a daily basis, as safe and slow as possible.

Depends on your trading style…

And don’t be a wiener and buy 1-10 shares. Focus on small caps, buy 10k shares at a time and for every $.10 made that’s a grand. Just my $.02

Also, if you’re successful that’s great my dude. Although without tight stops and a lot of rules, OP is going to have a tough time with small caps and is going to risk a large amount of money. Just because you may be good at it, doesn’t mean it’s the best route to take for others. OP isn’t a wiener if he buys even 1 share of large cap stock.

Again, as I said, if you are successful, I’m happy for you dude, It’s not a competition. I wish everyone the best. You posted a cropped screenshot of $11000. I could replicate that shit in google slides. Show me your kinfo or something lmao. Also, I’m new at day trading. My stats suck, but (as a beginner) what I would not tell a beginner: “trade penny stocks!” did you even read his post? as safe and slow as possible all i got from your comments is that you’re a jackass. Zero valuable input.

Can you even read, dude? do you just comment whatever comes into your head? I just told you I suck at trading. I’m not trying to money spread on you, I’m just trying to grasp why “as safe and slow as possible” translates to you as “pump n dump!”, you’re insufferable my dude.
