Andrew Aziz

Finance & InvestingVietnamese~360 min original read

This is the Vietnamese edition of Andrew Aziz's Day Trade for a Living, a practical, business-minded introduction to intraday stock trading written for people considering day trading as an actual profession rather than a hobby. Aziz's central framing throughout is that day trading should be approached and run like a business — with a business plan, defined risk parameters, tracked performance metrics, and professional discipline — rather than as speculative gambling on price movements.

The book moves from foundational orientation (what day trading actually is, why most beginners lose money, and what mindset shift is required to treat it seriously) through the practical infrastructure needed to trade — choosing a direct-access broker, understanding order types and platforms, and reading a Level 2 quote screen and time-and-sales tape. It then builds up the core analytical toolkit: how to screen for and select tradeable stocks each day, how to identify support and resistance levels, how to read candlestick price action, and how key technical indicators are used in an intraday context.

A major throughline of the book is risk and money management: Aziz repeatedly returns to position sizing, stop-losses, and the mathematics of risk-to-reward ratios, arguing that most day-trading failure is a failure of risk management and psychology rather than a failure to find good setups. The book also directly addresses the emotional and psychological side of trading — fear, greed, overconfidence after wins, and revenge trading after losses — treating emotional discipline as being just as important as technical skill.

The book closes by walking through several concrete day-trading strategies Aziz uses in his own trading, along with practical guidance on developing and following a personal trading plan, and is explicit that day trading is a demanding, high-attrition professional pursuit rather than a shortcut to quick, easy money.

Who This Is For

People seriously considering day trading as a full-time pursuit who want a structured, risk-management-first introduction rather than a get-rich-quick pitch.

When To Read This

Best read before risking real capital, and revisited when building or revising a personal trading plan.
