You can trade nearly any market form anywhere in the world. No office hours, traffic jams and obnoxious bosses. Why trust your money to someone else?
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">You will off course not start off full time with all the money you have. You can start off part time with a small fund while holding a full time job, as your experience and confidence increase your success rate with trades will also increase.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">• You are your own boss.
• There is no retirement age; if you can master the trading techniques you can create a positive income for many years past normal retirement age.
• You are the only employee - no labor problems and strike actions.
• You do not need an office, you have no fixed office hours.
• You can do your trading anywhere in the world.
• Your business's capital inputs is low, you need a computer (laptop) with good internet connection and of course funds to trade with (more about this later).
• You might have to spend some money on training and charting packages, but nowadays charting is usually part of your trading platform.
• If you are an End of Day (EOD) trader you do not need to watch the marker action the whole time. You can download your data and update your charts after market close, do your analysis and planning, and execute the trades the next day.
• You can learn and develop you trading techniques part time while you hold down a regular job.</p>
Is it not risky of difficult to trade for yourself?
Yes, off course it is not easy. I am still amazed that someone can expect to do a quick trading introductory course, open a Trading Account, do a few trades and then expect to double their money every few weeks.
To trade for income you have to be extremely dedicated, devoted and disciplined, and have huge amounts of patience, to name just a few of the characteristics you need.
The road to become a successful, competent trader, executing consistent winning trades is a long and emotional roller coaster ride full of disappointments. But if you persist and practice, practice and practice your trading techniques and execution of you Trading Plan you will triumph. Never give up!
