I have always stead away from day trading, except when it comes to Tesla.
I invested in it at $200 and sold parts up to $800 when I told myself I'd rebuy lower. Lower never came and I can bring myself to hold share long term.
But I have found opportunities to long and short(mostly short) on 1-5 day time scales, I have been fairly successful.
The large profit is from my long term trade, and since I have scalped some nice trades.
But now as you saw above I am in a big short. I think I have the nerve to hold another bump or two up, but I guess only time will tell.
My main reason for the price to fall is, I always listen to management, Musk 'Tesla stock price is too high imo'.
This was back in May when Tesla was $800 it is now trading at (pre split price) $2650. This is screaming for the company to sell shares and raise funds. Fund's they need if they are to build the 10's of factories they will need to compete with established car companies.
Talk me out of it if you can.
