What was your journey as a Trader?

  1. I'm interested in hearing how you got started into trading, what was it about trading that attracted you?

    We all know trading takes a lot of time, money, discipline, etc. What were your struggles as a Trader - from saving money to be able to trade, balancing a job to survive while learning, risking it all for your passion to trade, etc.

    What did your journey consist of? Was it worth it for you in the end? What types of struggles did you encounter not only with trading but in your own life that reflected your passion to succeed as a trader?

    It takes a lot to be a successful trader and it usually comes with more than just trading. I would love to hear how it all began for someone, what was done to make it happen, did you fail but never gave up, learned from that failure and came back that much better? Did it effect your personal life at all?

    Hoping to read some great inspiring stories

    Thank you!
