I am 22 years old and a college student. I just recently got into the stock market game of day trading and swing trading. My four thousand dollar investment has grown into a two thousand dollar profit. Based on what you have witnessed and from your own personal knowledge do stock always generally go up and down. One week they close at 1.55 and three weeks later close at 2.00 dollars.

My observation after a couple of decades in the investment universe is that stocks generally go up and day traders end up wiped out (broke). The stock market in the long term is a logical, weighing machine -- chaff gets tossed; wheat gets properly graded and paid for. In the short run the stock market can be an illogical, emotional, beast -- destroying the wise and the foolish; the strong and the weak. Day trading is based on two very foolish notions: (1) the vast army of professional traders with billion dollar pools and million dollar trading platforms doesn't exist and (2) trends can be exploited in the mid-to-long term. In the end, traders are destroyed by their own arrogance: either (1) they become the "greater fool " in the duck-duck-goose of daily ups and downs or (2) they are destroyed by using leverage to up the ante or play catch up.
