It seems like day trading you could make a larger percent gain. But with the way my fund are I'm a little short of the 25,000 minimum to day trade. If I didn't loose money before they told us that they were rebalancing I would be fine by now.
My goal by the end of the year is to be able to day trade. I see more opportunity to get small profits that you can count on then ride a wave that fizzles out.
