Daytrading for me would be like sitting in front of a giant slot machine with flashing red & green arrows. I'd much prefer getting my data EOD to peruse over with a cup of tea, less pressure, and more time.

The time factor is different in poker. Even if you are playing at a table with someone with a faster system/line than yours, you still get the same opportunity to make your bet.

From the way daytrading has been described in this thread, it seems as though the small investor is in a race to get his bet in against pros with faster systems.
