    Could be done... but before you start, keep in mind:

    There is no Holy Grail when it comes to trading. Most people understand that fortunes are made in decades of hard work and then can be lost overnight.

    1. Preservation of capital

    2. Managing the fear and greed

    3. Discipline

    4. Commitment to self education

    5. Understanding psychology of the market

    6. Understanding yourself

    7. Realistic returns

    8. Enjoying trading
