I trade because I enjoy it.....done it for years now.
I wouldn't do it for the sole reason of making money.
I do it for the following reasons:
* I love numbers and psycology * I love to not have a boss * I love to make money without having to deal with people
But I must say....its been an expensive education with a steep learning curve.
To be honest though...every single day I have been on the market is different to every other one in some way.
The market is always in some state of flux and being influenced by thousands of different factors of which I probably only consider 10 to complete a trade and thats hopeless.
I'd love to make $50K a day or $100K a day....wonder if anyone does on hotcopper...or a high sustained average....not that anyone would admit it on hotcopper.
If I average $1K profit a day I would be happy or $5K a week...its better then having a job.....but there would be people on here....private traders or individuals probably average $100K per week or a lot more.
Anyone game to put their hand up?
Its good fun anyway being in the market..just have to be honest with yourself why you are here..whats your goals...educate yourself, arm yourself with the right tools and ALWAYS stay on your feet.
With all that...you could still wipe yourself out financially.
