Do you have a job and trade or trade solo?

Full time equities trader, here in NYC.

 

It is a relative simple math question. Your CONSISTENT profits after taxes and comissions and other costs should cover the expenses of your living.

The hard part is to estimate "consistent profits" for a newbie. As a starter you can guess zero or a loss...

 

NICE!!!

Only my lighter works.

 

I am a private speculator, trading my own money. I guess it's full time. I do not have a job. Hard to think of it as full time when I might be walking the beach, fishing or taking a nap. Following trends can be soooo boring zzzz ooh look I caught a fish!

 

Trade full time. When I used to work and tried to trade, had limited results.
