Hey, guys! I hope you're fine. The point is that I read a lot of forums, talked to many people and had a lot of questions. I wonder whether there are people who trade just for a living? Are you those who are sitting behind the monitor for longs, testing your system or strategy, or you are the one who is ready to deal with these long days in spite of the losses and profits?
I THINK what you are asking is "Are you trading part-time for extra income, or full-time for primary income"? I am the latter, if my above posit is correct.
Mathematical fact. The people claiming to make a living. = 10,000x the people actually making a living.
Long days will burn you out, trading is stressful, why does it have to be more than 2 - 3 hours during the ideal times ?? No point making the $$$'s if you just going to save them up for some status IMHO, get spending, go on holiday, but nice stuff and live the traders dream, coke and hookers LOL ( I don't do coke )
No one trades as a 'hobby'...whatever the heck that even means We're not doing this because it's Fun -- it's about money. and money is usually stressful and serious. If someone claims to trade as a hobby or part time...it's fairly safe to say, or assume, they're one of the 95%+ of traders out there that is losing money.
