Do you know anyone who has made a full time living trading/investing in stocks? I have not nor have been able to do that myself. Or how much full time proprietary traders earn? Any advice is appreciated.

at the moment i know one way, how to earn in short period of time,but i will not spam it here. this job is a tough one.
With tough one i mean-my boss earns 10k $ per 7 days, but he also works 16-18 hours a day

of more than 500 prop traders i know, 98% loses while the 2% are successful.


the losers average -$25K minimum annual income

the winners average $200K minimum annual income





They just lose!

The next question will be, will do these losers get their money?

Loan?

You don't know over 500 prop traders, who do you think you are fooling?

But, it doesn't matter if they are losers, they are being replaced by HFT traders (Programmers).


flushed out those traditional prop traders whether they are successful or not and bring in the NEXT GENERATION of traders (Programmers).


traditional prop traders, your time will be up just like the pit trader (obsolete).
