I prefer to swing trade as the primary form of portfolio growth as it's more lucrative and less labor intensive, but if my exposure is low or there's good volatility in the market I can supplement with intra-day trading or scalping, whatever you want to call it.
You don't have to risk a lot of money to make a decent amount of money. You can see here probably about an hours worth of work and about $800 profit to help grow my portfolio.
Nothing flashy but solid gains with pretty low risk and surgical entries on LTFs which is what I've become really good at; the zero fees on stocks really helps out my cause.
Of course it's not always like this, some days I get a trade or two that run and then I shut it down right away and some days I get a little up and down and realize it's not a good day to trade or sometimes I just go into the day on the wrong side and call it quits pretty quickly too. I've learned to recognize when it's just not my day extremely quickly now and not fight it.
So rather than post insane PNLs with lots of risk imposed I prefer to post more strategic, consistent and realistic profitable strategies/ideas that are more likely to work for the majority and not make people think they need to risk more than they should or that they're doing something wrong not making insane profits they see on the internet.
