I tried day trading with $5000 of capital. For a little context, i have been swing trading on and off over the past few years, but i have never given Day trading a real chance as it is always very time consuming. But i decided to give it a shot now, and here's my results
I'm mainly trading the 0 DTE (Days to Expiration) Options on the S&P500 Index (SPX) selling a credit spread at 40-50 points wide. However i will never let it expire or risk the entire capital. I will set hard stop losses to prevent myself from taking heavy losses.
