I'm sure many of threads are open on this but I haven't found them yet! Anyway, who here trades in the markets as a business? If so, what are the advantages? Also, do I have to have a monthly cashflow in and out comming? All the advice would be appreciated.. Thanks!
almost any serious trader "who here doesn't trade in the markets as a business? " curious people who have saved some money and don't know what to do with it people who have a tendecy of making 50$ a day for a week and loosing 2000$ in the next week insiders those who also pay for lottery tickets gamblers those who have decided to commit suicide but didn't have the guts to, so they put all their money and get loans to trade with and when they loose it all they gain enough balls to kill themselves those who think they are the best and they can do it when no one else can people who believe in cramer and many more money, that is if you can really play the market the excitement of watching your trading account as you loose money yes, it's not easy to be working at another job if you are thinking of becoming a serious trader, unless you get to sit at work doing nothing all day and have a computer (of coarse with internet access) in front of you the best option is you should already have a business that produces equal amount of money that you can loose at maximum without your supervision, like put $10,000,000 in the bank, keep it in the bank, and trade with the profit you get from the bank or a nice mom and dad who are willing to cover all your losses You are welcome ... Good Luck!
