You have always been able to become a full time trader. At least for the past 40 years. Many try very few succeed. It's tough game and like any occupation you have to be committed. Most people fail because they simply do not have enough starting capital. Probably need $250000 minimum ...just in your trading account. Plenty of young blokes get in and are blown out within 12 months or shorter. Many have an initial big win ie. in crypto and think they are masters of the universe only to come crashing down in a big heap. Most risk too much on a single trade and do not know when they are wrong. I could write a book on the subject but there are already hundreds of good books on the subject. There are no short cuts trading is not a get rich quick scheme but that is how many treat it. They will fail guaranteed. I tried to be a day trader but did not have the capital and also found I did better taking positional trades some that took 4 to 5 years to pan out. I still trade in small amounts because I enjoy trading but do I make a living from it = NO and neither will 95% of others who have a crack.
