I think you all have different stories.. some true love for the markets, and some purely coincidently.
but in a funny way.. i think one thing you all have in common is you truly believe you were born to be a millionaire and trading is the way to do it - because you're convinced you're smarter than everyone else and can beat the market. correct?
no but more seriously, how did u guys end up trading? and for others, why do you want to be a trader? there are millions of more interesting jobs out there.
i guess:
1. because its easy to make money (and lose it too). you dont have to move ur ass.
2. its one of the few ways you can actually make a change in your life in just one generation - by making alot of money.
3. you dont want to work, and want to enjoy life so you let ur trades make some money for u.
4. you're depressed, but smart, so some bank nicked forced u to make millions for them and u dont care about money.
5. you're addicted to gambling.
6. you read about jesse livermore and feel you're his reincarnation.
7. you trade, so can tell others you're a "Trader" and it makes u feel like a ferrari. (maybe even just trade 1once a year to earn the title)
8. you trade because when you was 12 years old, you watched WALL ST. and want to be mr Gecko..
9. you trade because its another channel for speculation and for some reason without doubt, you believe you have the gift of god to beat the market.
10. you trade because you're too ugly to show ur face anywhere, so you trade because u can do it from home.
11. you trade because your dad is/was a trader.
12. you became a trader because you're jewish (no offence!)
13. you trade because your addicted to looking at graphs and it turns u on checking all those indicators.
14. its the only way you feel you will make your first billion.
15. you work on open-out-cry floor and u enjoy shouting and scream and thinking you're making some very important decisions in the world..
14. why do you trade anyway?
the reason i highlight this is because first i wanna know what sort of people come here, and 2nd i think how you approach trading can influence how successful you are and maybe things r ment to be.. there are hell of alot of arrragont successful traders..
have fun
