Re: For those that are full time now-how'd you do it?
Hi Reaver,
My all time favorite word is perseverance. I was able to go full-time by failing multiple times. It did take me a little over 2 years and 10 hour days studying charts, reading books, trading, staring at tape, etc... I currently spend about 12 hours a day engaged with the markets. Usually do my morning research about 90 minutes before the market opens and another 5 hours after the market closes.
I busted out 2 accounts, found myself in debt, worked 26 days a month to pay off my debt and gain some capital, etc.. simply because I refused to quit. I was willing to do anything I can to become successful at it. The entire period of the learning phase I treated trading as if my life depended on it. (it actually did) So my advice for you is determination, patience, passion, and the motivation. You cant be stubborn also. Eliminate what doesnt work and craft what works. Eventually you will find your own technique, style, and methodology. Become a master at it. To a point that your style should be branded. You also need to be well capitalized as well.
