Is it possible to make consistent profits from trading

There are as many nuanced methods of trading as there are traders. There is no right or wrong way to trade. There is only a profit-making trade or a loss-making trade.
 
From my experience, most aspiring traders have an unrealistic expectation or misplaced notion of what an actionable "edge" is to begin with.

Isn't it nice to have you cake and eat it too.:D
 
you'd need to come up with some idea about stock markets or a stock, then collect data to validate the idea.... do you know why people keep saying trading is hard work.
basically, it would come down to "I think, therefore I trade" + one's psychological makeup and personality.
