Congrats on your success, Toilet. I have no idea what your experience is, and you may be a sophicated investor, so I'm not knockin you when I say what I am about to say. Either you are lucky and will eventually give it all back, or you will also offer the following warning.

If you are not an experienced investor, be very careful with short selling and options. They are very risky and you must know exactly what you are doing, and be prepared to accept the losses that will come along. When you are selling short, you losses are unlimited, but your gains are limited. Options are a risky business in themselves, especially writing uncovered calls which also offers limitless losses and limited gains.

In my expereince with day traders, which I have come across a lot of them, they will do very well for a couple of trades (those that loose first off usually give it up then so they never really make it to day-trader status), maybe even a year or two, but they don't know when to quit. They get greedy, put more and more money in to their online trading account, and then bam! they loose one and all is gone. Day trading is really a big gamble, as most people will do better in Vegas than they do in day trading.

If you are looking to have some fun with your money and can't make it to Vegas, have some fun day trading. If you are a serious investor, and have plans for your investment, I would recommend sticking with a more conservative route besides day trading, and limited options where they are appropriate. Make sure that you know exactly what you are doing or have someone helping you.
