Are there many people on ST who trade either shares, foreign exchange or commodities as a full time occupation.
What is required to trade fulltime. Is anyone capable of doing it.
Do you have any advice for someone wanting to dip their toes in and try it on a part time basis.
Are there any simple systems. What are the costs and time involved in trading. What programs/tools are required. What training,books,courses would you advise for a newbie.
I haven't really considered TA as a lot of people in books write it off but I was impressed by how Phadreaus's charts provide signals for buying and selling and wondered if it would be possible to generate some extra income part time.
Also my take the advice of stockbrokers and hold long term has been a drain on capital over the last few years.
