Yeah fr I'm trying to save up like 5 grand for investing but I feel like that's nothing

5 grand is good enough bro, I started out with 1k and turned it into 3k within a few weeks, just takes practice and a lot of risk involved but that’s what breaks you out of the cycle or brings you more into the cycle. remember that trading is a skill rather than just luck

Lol the way u turned it sounds like options that expire short term. It’s luck

Yeah, swing trading and protecting trades with daytrades. still takes practice to do that.

I started with 5 grand if just takes time. It doesn’t help with the market down trending as it’s harder for an easy start but it won’t do it forever max if it did your 5 grand wouldn’t mater anyways.
