You can have a lousy trading strategy that eventually blows up but still be rich due to all the performance fees you have accumulated whilst the strategy was "working". If you're starting out I suggest a good strategy rather than trying the above.
The argument that someone has a good trading strategy because he is "rich" is specious. I was suggesting the names of people who didn't know what they were doing but still ended up with lots of $
Dude, if you have 300k to start with (assuming its your own money), then you're already a millionaire.
LOL. Why would you quit your job to trade fulltime in this economy when your odds are very high of ending up destitute. Homeless, broke and all alone. I've been trading for more than 10 years and can confidently tell you how to succeed in trading, I will charge you a reasonable consulting fee.
