I'm sure they have many!! I think They are being exposed
Just a little reminder info ...
Day trading When you day trade, you buy and sell stocks, ETFs, and other assets multiple times a day. Before the end of the trading day, you usually sell everything off, with any profits (or losses) hitting your trading account.
Because of the time required to research potential investments, follow changes and trends in the market, and implement all the trades you want, day trading can be as all-consuming as a full-time job.
Swing trading A slightly less hands-on sibling of day trading, swing trading is when you hold investments for days or weeks to capitalize on upticks—or swings—in the market. Like day trading, swing trading requires a lot of research and awareness of market and investment trends. You don't, after all, want to miss the window to catch the swing and make a potentially profitable sale.
But unlike day trading, you aren't limiting yourself to an instant turnaround, and you're less likely to be impacted by a single bad day—or even a handful of bad days. By letting you wait days or weeks, swing trading gives you (and your investments) more time to realize a potential profit.
Position trading At its most basic, "taking a position" simply means buying an investment. Building on that, position traders are those who take that investment position and stick with it for the longer term. Based on their research and knowledge of investment trends, they hope that prices will rise through the short-term downward blips that may frustrate traders with shorter timelines.
Position traders may hold their position for many months or years. And because they take a long-term view, position traders aren't likely to let the news of the day influence their investment strategies, unless that news changes their understanding of an investment's future long-term growth.
Of the 3 types of trading discussed here, position trading comes the closest to what many refer to as just "investing," a strategy that relies on long-term growth, often over years or decades, to help grow wealth.

Keep in mind any additional trading requirements
Depending on how you trade, you may need to consider a few additional things:- If you engage in day trading, you may need to have a minimum amount in your accounts—usually $25,000. Check with your brokerage to confirm.
- If you use a margin account to help power-up your purchasing power with borrowed funds, you may be subject to a "margin call" if the value or the margin equity percentage of your account dips below a certain amount. This means the value of your collateral is no longer great enough to back the loan and your brokerage demands you put more cash or owned equities into your account. If you cannot, this may result in your holdings being sold at a loss.
- Your brokerage will report gains and losses to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). Gains from sales will be taxed, and the taxes you pay on investments held for less than a year may be higher than those you would pay on longer-held investments, which benefit from long-term capital gains tax rates. You may be able to deduct a portion of your losses from your current year's, as well as future years', taxes through tax-loss harvesting.
The bottom line about trading
If you have the time, money, and interest in market research, you may consider actively trading a small portion of your total holdings. Be sure to create a trading plan to guide you along the way and help prepare you for the market's inevitable ups and downs.
