I dabble in trading when I have a few moments - primarily some tech and focused sectors. I mainly hold for long in general

Paying a dividend is different than the actions of the day trader - anyhow back to topic | |

I invest in high risk etf's that pay 80-200% annually, and i'm paid on a weekly basis. I don't recommend it for anyone, but I should have my initial investment back within 1.5 years of the start date.
You can reinvest the dividends, or place those payments into long term investments such as the S&P 500

No,I am asking what are these highly risky ETFs?
Correction,premarket trading of TSLA runs from a few hundred thousand to one million shares.
Does Robinhood let you trade all night long?

You can reinvest the dividends, or place those payments into long term investments such as the S&P 500 | If you try Gold (XAUUSD) Buy and Sell in Forex then it will give you good return. But you need to know market bias, price action and strategy.

But for this you need patience, strategy and technical analysis to evaluate the investment.
If you don't have money then there have a sulution also. only you can invest 50-100$ and you can get 5k for start Trading.but there have few conditions.

I do 2x leverage trades, my goal for each day is $100-300 per day. I follow the money or current trends only. My current trend is tech(AI) storage, seagate or Western Digital.
I dont trade to get rich or make 1000s per day, I'm fine with 100-300 per day. So far, I'm up 54% YTD.

If I am losing that much, I will stop and research what is trending. Right now, the trend is Tech storage. Seagate just released their earnings yesterday, stock is up 17% in the after market.
I put $25k into Seagate on Friday, I'll sell that at the end of the trading day and buy Western Digital before market close, WD will release their earnings on Thursday. With those 2 trades, I wont do anymore trades for a few weeks.
I dont trade everyday, I meant to say that I like to average a +$100-300 every day but I dont trade everyday.
