Well, my ambition is to make about 50% of what I do Sim trading, considering the ability to get filled and the psychological factors, so I'm hoping my hobby makes between $500 and $1000 a day. How many hours will that take, 5000? You're right, the chair is ugly, I'm getting a much better one; took this one, temporarily, from my office in town.
I can tell, if I plan on continuing to view this forum, I'm going to need taller boots; the........gets pretty deep in here!
And imagine i daytrade trade using a laptop and an ipad for a hotspot while sailing down the road 70 miles an hour. My wife driving of course.
The point is you can’t control your mind. You can learn how to deal with it but no amount of willpower or discipline can control it. Example: within the next 60 seconds DO NOT think of a juicy red apple sitting on top of a chocolate cake.
I can imagine, but for instruments other than equities. I used only a laptop for a few months and it can be done, but I think, with equities, it is a definite edge to have more screens with more data.
As I am on my way to the store to buy a chocolate cake; I get the point of mind control. So what are they referring to with the 10,000 hour meter? It takes that long to learn how to deal with it?

well NOW...if he is making 2000 month trading with a high win rate that is probably better than most low rollers on ET and will buy him a new pair of boots...several happy meals...a few steaks...may even get a few dates with some pretty ladies...(as most all ladies like shopping LOL). I wouldn’t knock it too much ...at least he is winning and doing so after 6 months..way better than most traders....go vicente! I say go!
