Almost all successful traders in history have traded on larger timeframes than a day. You can observe that in books containing interviews of successful traders such as Market Wizards.
The best traders have a plan, certainly a structure they adhere to, and focus acutely on money/risk management. But first, you must decide if you are "investing" or trading.
I can imagine many, many serious "investors" are/can be successful over significant periods of time (not measured in hours). Part of this is the magic of compounding and part through a painstaking examination of data. Corporate balance sheets, etc, etc.
Pretty soon there will be as many books written about trading the "Markets," as have been written about Napoleon.
Dude - that was years ago...before everyone had a high speed connection and fast trading platform that could be programmed.
Get with the times.
Some of the HFT firms are making a TON of money trading for ticks.
Verniman posts all his entries live the moment he enters for people who pay a small fee (via another subscribed based twitter account).
He always enters and exits with 2 lots (ES). He uses a good method (successful) and applies great discipline. One can learn a lot from him. Highly recommended.
