Independent Research on Trader Profitability

Available academic research suggests that most day traders are not profitable. Examples include:

- UC Berkeley / UC Davis (2014): In Do Day Traders Rationally Learn About Their Ability?, researchers found that only 9.81% of day trading volume on the Taiwan Stock Exchange came from predictably profitable traders—less than 3% of all traders.
https://doi.org/10.1111/jofi.12156

- University of Oxford & University College Dublin (2005): In The Profitability of Active Stock Traders, only 50% of 1,146 U.S. day traders were profitable between March and June 2000, with an average net profit of $16,619.

- University of Texas (2003): In The Profitability of Day Traders, only 35% of traders were profitable, and only 14% generated profits over $10,000 from 334 U.S. brokerage accounts (Feb 1998–Oct 1999).

These studies confirm that at least 50% of retail day traders lose money. Trading is a high-risk endeavor, and most participants do not consistently succeed. Any trade or investment decision you make is done at your own risk.
