    Is learning the trading business like learning any other business?

    Could you please explain what you mean by a "normal" business as risk management/evaluation is a major component in running virtually all businesses. If you are referring strictly to "distribution of risk" per se then it is only one issue to be addressed in a plethora of issues when in business...
