Andrew, what I appreciate about you the most is the transparency. Through good or bad times you have kept it real. I remember in your email you said you cried after you $2mil loss, nobody admits such a thing except for someone who is truly honest with himself and others. Good for you man, never change.

[@BearBullTraders]

Thank you for your support and kind words! Transparency is important to me, as it helps build trust with my followers and students. I believe in being open and honest, even when it comes to tough moments like the $2 million loss. It's not always easy, but it's the right thing to do. I appreciate your understanding and encouragement to keep being true to myself. Thank you for being a part of the BearBullTraders community.

agree with you...i am a full-time trader, and bear so much psychological pressure right now....but if i am working, i know that there's other kind of pressure people would bear as staff ( from boss, colleagues, clients.....)...It's all about choice.

[@BearBullTraders]

It's true, trading can come with its own set of psychological pressures and stress. However, it's important to recognize that every career path comes with its own unique challenges and pressures. Have you tried any techniques or methods to manage the psychological pressure that comes with being a full-time trader? For example, meditation, journaling, or reaching out to a support network can all help manage stress and maintain a healthy mental state.

[@BearBullTraders]

Hi Samuel, for me, the best setup is DAS+IB. Some traders are using DAS+TDA to avoid commissions (you only pay ECN comms with TDA) with a decent success. They report that sometimes at the open, in the first minute, they are not filled, but this is rare and does not affect adversely their experience with DAS+TDA. I hope this helps you!

This is why I'm trying to figure out swing trading. Makes it easier to do as a part time job. It's hard too day trade with a day job. I live in Florida and I'm not leaving lol

[@BearBullTraders]

Swing trading can be a good option for those who are looking to trade part-time, as it often involves holding positions for a few days to a few weeks. This longer time frame can allow for more flexible scheduling, as you don't have to be constantly monitoring the markets throughout the day.

[@samamini]

I thought trading can be a full-time job but as you said it can be very stressful to be dependent of the income. There are so many factors that can go wrong but as you said it is good to have it as part time and see the biger picture for swing trading.

[@antonthery1497]

I was a part-timer but will be back hopefully soon. From my limited experience, it would be seriously unwise for someone to day trade full time. The added pressure of not being able to pay your bills would almost definitely cause one to overtrade and trade impulsively. It probably wouldn't be long before they abandoned their tradebooks.

[@BearBullTraders]

Thank you for sharing your experience. I completely agree with your perspective on the added pressure of day trading full-time. Can you share more about your approach to trading as a part-timer and what you believe are the benefits of this approach?

[@antonthery1497]

@@BearBullTraders Sure. I'm fortunate because my job allows me the opportunity to trade for the first hour or two of the trading day. As a result of reading/studying each of your books, I knew I could funnel down some of the strategies and focus on them particularly since I was trading at that the open only. Since I wouldn't be trading at mid-morning, afternoon, or near the close, I could refine my tradebook quite easily. So the largest benefit for me as a part-time trader was refining my core strategies and focusing the vast majority of my education on those strategies. If you're trading throughout the whole day, it would be easy to be executing one strategy but see things on the chart that would tempt you to trade a different strategy. In my view, this would cause more psychological temptation and confusion. I think it's very beneficial to know early on that one is a part-time trader and trading at a particular time of day; therefore, a tradebook comes quicker and the refinement of your tradebook takes less time. Being a full time trader, one could easily fall into the trap of trading too many strategies at once and moving back and forth between them. I could see this as a detriment to their account's health.

[@glenndonaghy2329]

Absolutely, I sent you an email in Jan 2023 showing my P&L from 2022, In 2020 I lost my job, got a half decent severance and thought I could trade fulltime. I had a year of part time trading under my belt so I thought no problem I can do this, but the psychological pressure and lack of experience made me realize I was not ready. So I continued to tweak my strategy, read, practice and trade with minimal risk to protect my capital until I could be more consistent, but I found a job first and It wasn't until I was working again that my trading turned the corner and I became more constant. I'm three years in and now my trading is more consistent than ever (part time). Small goals and strict rules allows me to bring in a half decent part time income.

I personally have had the benefit of learning from the BBT community. I have been trading just shy of 1 year and have developed consistency of profits.
