How Many Of Us Do Full Time Trading?

[ratan jain]

Can putting on one trade on monday and worrying about it for the rest of the week, sitting in front of the screen, be called full time trading?

If yes, then Heck! I AM A FULL TIME TRADER! andn then some... as I sit up late at night and worry about the dow too!!

Full time trader is the person who makes living from trading. It has nothing to do with how frequently or how many hours, he trades, . There are many trading styles where traders don't monitor each and evey bar. They can swing trade, they can trade for first 2 hrs of the market, trade for first 1 hr and last 1hr of the market when there is action etc.. and make living from trading.

Every successful daytraders know it well, that when is the time to trade and when is the time to stand on the side (which is almost 75% of the day).

And if one uses the technology correctly, then one can devise the alarm notification system to attract traders attention.

So, why not, if your system is right then you can very well execute one trade on Monday...and make the money for whole week. Better, exeute a trade once in a month.

full time trading or trading in FULL.........????


I feel my success comes from my love of the market.............. I am not a casual trader......... It is my life. I have a passion for trading............ It is not merely a hobby or even a career choice for me........... There is no question that this is what I am supposed 2 do with my life...............

I have an idea many gud traders silently browse the site, some dont even bother to register. Day traders paricularly tend to be shy and secretive.

Very Correct

Trading is like a girl .. When u know it very closely may be u could be her fan or .. Dont want to be with her ... So it depends on our vision ... And patience .

" patience " is wht required . Control yr fear . Love .. For what u get is gain .

NO ONE IS FULL TIME TRADER .. AS MARKET IS NOT SO FOR ANY ONE TO BE IN TRADING RANGE .

VOLATILITY GIVES TIMES FOR TRADING ... DO TRADING WHEN THERE IS VOLATILITY.

Yes, and I am sure Mr Volatility will call us up early in the morning and inform us wether it will be visiting the exchanges today or not.
