Day Trader Demographics

[RicG]

Hi all,

I've been attempting to find reasonably up-to-date demographics on day traders with little success. Beyond the basic Google/Bing searches, I've also looked for such information at the SEC and other governmental websites with no real luck. The only study I've found thus far, that had a small amount of demographic statistics included, was put out by the SEC all the way back in in the year 2000.

At the recommendation of a trader on another board, I contacted two professors who publish extensive market studies (not necessarily demographics), but haven't heard back as of this time. Those two are:
Antonio Bernardo, Professor of Finance, at the UCLA Anderson School of Management
Professor Brad M. Barber Graduate School of Management University of California, Davis.

I've also contacted the National Association of Day Traders, but haven't heard back.

So......do any of the fine folks here on Kreslik know where I can find up-to-date day trader demographics?

Any help would be appreciated,
Ric

I don't have a clue.

What information are you trying to get?

What exactly do you want to know??

Trying to find up-to-date, standard demographic subsets; gender, age, ethnicity, languages, annual earnings, employment status, location, etc.
