Turning $15K credit card debt into financial freedom

No, I am not a troll, not at all. If my words sound funny, that might be because English is not my native language.

I was actually referring to the gullibility of the posters who took you seriously.

The fx market is open almost 24 hours a day. Why don't you trade before or after work? Why not automate your strategy?

I quit my job for other reasons. When I quit my job, I had no intention of becoming a trader. I had never been involved with trading in my life. Moreover, I had always thought that day trading was stupid.

I decided to try day trading after some period of soul searching and deliberation about my life and career.

To answer your question: I think it would not be possible for me to successfully trade while working full time. I like to have complete focus on what I am doing. No way I can trade after or before work since I have to spend time with my family.

But I am serious. Check my first post on this forum.

Yes, you are a troll. No one is as blatantly ignorant as you are trying to sound.

36%!? Isn't that illegal? I got people on the shore that'll do better than that. But they aren't quite as forgiving as your bank I suspect. But for real..... I hope you make it. Best of luck kiddo.

Baron: your enterprise (aka EliteTrader) is turning into some kind of freak show. Make me a moderator, and I will restore order.

I was inspired to start this journal by this thread:

Took out a loan to transition to full-time trading. 24 years old.

The poor guy did not make it. I hope I will. I maxed out my credit cards (36% APR) and started day trading forex with $15K stake. After three weeks of trading I am down to $10K, however, I am not losing hope.

I also quit my job for trading forex full time. I have a wife and kid who I need to support (wife not working). Our minimum living expenses are about $3K per month. I have $20K in my checking account. I gave myself three months to prove that I can succeed as a trader. I am aiming for $10K total profit by the end of the summer. If not, I will start looking for a job.
