question from a newby, page-16

Hi kerriemel,

I have only started trading in the past few months in which my losses and gains swap on a daily basis. All in all I have lost money but I have been able to survive. So my suggestion is to be prepared to lose at the start and have enough capital to pay for bills and to live and to support the lifestyle you live.

I have yet to hit a high strike rate with shares and I understand it will be some time before that occurs.

I have noticed with trading is that it is a lonely job but probably the most exciting although it can be an emotional roller coaster.

Finally, you will probably experience having little to no support from your friends and family. For me, being a very family orientated person, its an unnecessary burden that can wear you down for a little while.

With all that being said and done, I wouldnt trade this job for the world and I couldnt ever imagine going back to what society portrays as a ordinary job.

Best of luck in your endeavours.

Swift.
