In my personal opinion and many
people might differ: I don't believe trading should be the all-in price
of your life. I believe you should have a day job while you get
comfortable with your real personality within the market. Once you are
comfortable with who you are (when trading) then maybe you can start to
think about a half day job and then later do this "trading thing"
full-time. Unfortunately (fortunately for some! hehe) this will mean a
less active trading life and no intraday getting excited about a 10 pips
move. There actually is no glamour in being a trader not as depicted by
some movies. Yes, the movies showed us what it could be like but thats
just not true, theres maybe 2 or 3 such fast paced days in a year. It's
like if you watch hour upon hour upon hour of porn and then go shopping
for shoes and can't understand why the clerk at the shoe store is not
taking off your pants to fit your "shoes". Real life and movie life is
not the same. To be a trader is a boring JOB! For the small guy it
should be a hobby developing into real-life income over time only after
you really know yourself and know how you react in the market - else
failure is almost certain.
