Trading is the Operational Mainframe of Successful Commercial Enterprise
Sure, there are countless trading tools and information collection/analysis mechanisms that can help you prepare for the wanton unpredictability of markets; and there are tons of opportunity signaling methods, screening techniques, hedging strategies and the like that you can experiment with.
But if you have grown to the point where you know you need a long term strategy that fuels itself with short-term trading; if you recognize that most investment professionals (stock broker, financial planner-advisor, etc.) have been regulated out of the individual security business; if you are wary of wealth managers who have never managed any wealth of their own --- welcome.
Welcome to the realization that investing does not involve rocket-sciencesque formulae that replace common sense decision making; welcome to the appreciation of short-term trading as the portfolio management equivalent of running a "for-profit-you-betcha" business; and welcome to the concept that trading is the operational mainframe of all successful enterprise.
