I have been trading for 5 years. It took close to a year before I became profitable. I find that I am improving gradually each year.
My method of choice is scalping. My edge lies in tape reading NYSE stocks and staying on the side of the specialist. That is the method I learned when I started. As I build up my capital I will try new styles and trade new markets.
In late 2006 my trading hit a rough patch after the introduction of the NYSE Hybrid system. For most of 2007, I have been on a search for new strategies that would help me adapt to the market.

Yesterday may have been a fluke, or today may have.
I hope you're journalling your thoughts and trades. More "Today" trading and less "Yesterday" trading!
Slay those dragons!
I only watched a few stocks. Today I made money on HURN. Usually if I get one good stock I can make some money.
On days losing days I will see myself trading over 8 stocks.
