Can retail traders trade from home and make enough to live free of the corporate world?

Yes to the question...but as an aside, i don't see what is wrong with working within the 'corporate' world tbh.

 

There are already numerous threads about this item.

Ran out of inspiration?

 

Some people are so quick to cast apsersions.

You don't think it might be the forum's affiliate-link, added automatically by the software when members post Amazon links (exactly as is the common practice in so many other forums)?

 

Yes and Adblock is your friend.

 

yeah this is one of those Nitro's insane thread starters. I didn't see an ad, what was it about?

 

It's still there: just an Amazon affiliate-link within the Amazon book-link: forum software is often set up to include these automatically, when people link to Amazon, etc.: it's just a way of earning a dollar or two toward forum maintenance expenses.

 

Retail trader usually only having small capital, but forex still very promising, I have near friend which he already treat forex as full time business and all daily necessity covered by earning from this business, so depending with own selves, mental required to treat as full time business

 

Depends what you mean by retail trader.

Outside of a bank or hedge fund yes.

I trade from home full time trading my own money and make a great living.

But I trade through a prop firm so get margin breaks and lower commissions.

I use professional trading platforms that cost about $1000 a month.

I have 10 years experience.

If by retail you mean a $1000 account and no willingness to spend at least 6 months sim trading full time learning your craft and going live only when you are well capitalised with consistent daily returns and no guys to bounce ideas off and learn from probably not.

 

you don't understand the question?

 

Do I sound like I don't?
