Trading is just too deceptively easy. Many times it's made that way by the entire brokerage industry with all those enticing ads of people being able to trade easily into retirement, people able to trade to gain the freedom of enjoying life, sailing around the world, going on vacation to exotic places on those trading apps and software that are just all so easy and fun to use by anybody who just needs to push a few buttons and they are well on their way to riches!
Trading for oneself is a form of small business. And small businesses have a high rate of failure, especially in the first year or two. I've been long confused why people think it is any different?
%% Some people confuse it with the lotto/lotto ads. The fine print on odds on lotto ,is made to be difficult to read....................................... Good thing some people were never created to work for some else.
I think an important question here would be that, when is the time one should just stop trying and “accept” defeat in trading. Shouldn’t be too soon, as everything takes time.
