This depends on the amount of money you are using as risk capital.
A fair average might be 4-8% per month, assuming you are trading successfully. Day trading needs to be treated like a job and a business.
You will lose money, and you can make money. When your returns exceed your losses consistently, you can consider yourself successful. Keep educating yourself, and learn to manage your risk/losses. |

I tryed daytrading for a few years. I had some big days making around $3000.00 a few times but by the end of the year i was broke. Your better off contributing a little bit each month to a mutual fund or buying quality stocks and holding for the long run. With mutual funds you can have money taken right out your bank account at the end of the month. Ive been doing this for a while and have been able to accumulate a nice bit of money. I wish i never tried daytrading. Id be a lot richer right now. |

I think brokerages try to make day trading seem like a very "cool" thing to do. Buy-and-hold has historically been a better approach. Spend your free time doing research. Study companies' SEC filings. Invest and hold for a few months, and then reevaluate. This will lead to better results, and much less money spent on commissions.

You can never earn in day trading. It is similar to winning in casinos. Have you ever come across a person who have earned money in stock market day trading continuously? |

You COULD make trillions. You probably will lose. About 90% of people who day trade lose money. |

THE POINT IS HOW MUCH COULD YOU LOSE IN A DAY |

You will make & loose money. End result - If you r smart then you will not exit as a looser (Though you may not gain much). Play safe invest in MF's. |
