What demographic is most likely to lose in trading?

Quote from marketsurfer:

Those who love trading the most are the most likely to fail. The market holds the greatest attraction to those least suited for it. It's an unfortunate fact.

Otherwise, all demographics are equal.

Probably true. Must be approached with a business mindset.
 
#4 Age 65 years old and up

In this group, they are retired after 40 years of working and looking to have fun (enjoy life). Majority of this group are the victim of getting scam by the 3rd party educational vendors.

what about short people, fat people, bald headed people and least we not forget---------------black people.
 
Lol, the answer is obvious:

Everyone who makes trading their life career will lose. There's isn't an example of a single man/woman out there who didn't lose it all towards the end (unless they got smart and quit the trading side of the business early on, like Bernard Baruch, Willliam J. O'Neil, Larry Williams, etc.)

Think the universe will let you take money from other people's pockets indefinitely? (People tend to forget the karmic side of trading either b/c they don't believe in karma, or never considered it).

Here is an example why women are the worst trader:

The guy wants to go long in the stock market, while the lady wants to go short. As of now, who is winning?
 
To be successful in trading.

You need to be a male
age 21-30
high self esteem
higher than average IQ and EQ
higher than normal motivation

High Aptitude for computers

In other words 1 in 100 can be a successful trader.
 
So going off the 1st post, unless you are male and aged 55-65, forget about trading.

Can you explain why this demographic is the one to be in?
