Trading right has changed my perspective on how one can succeed in life. I’ve been able to clear my debt and go on to have surplus to take care of my family. Working multiple jobs for money isn’t the optimal way to attain financial freedom. Unfortunately, we find this out later in life. Great video.

[@Zmlambo]

How so ma’am. I'm keen on getting started but I have close to no knowledge on how to trade.

[@clairewinchestermurray8703]

It's not strange that learning the rudiments of investing can be somewhat difficult, that's why I work with Levi Clemans, a seasoned trade analyst who has made me resounding profit from investing in stocks and I bonds. You can get across to him

It’s best to trade part time. Build capital, acquire more trading skills and get better before fully going into it. What matters is your trading goals and your exit plan.

I started trading few months ago and I must say, it isn’t going as expected. I do make much losses and just little profits and I’m sure I’m doing everything right.

[@edsullivan5836]

A huge mistake made by many is that when they enter a trade, they have no figure in mind at which they'll close. Not knowing when to close has probably cost over 95% of the people reading this in positions that have been in profit with but weren't then closed and reversed, bringing a loss. I simply set a take profit BEFORE entering a position, the difference in the results speaks for itself.

[@mykalhenry]

ATR, lifesaving...

[@hummit]

You are absolutely correct - without keeping the winnings, it is not possible to trade upwards. Not having a sizeable trading account limits your trading options because the blue chips are beyond reach and trading in penny stocks have inherently higher risks. Trading for a living is only viable when your capital reaches a substansive amount and where you need only spend part of your winnings to sustain your lifestyle and keep a substantial part to increase your trading capital. Spending all your winnings is a wrong 1st step.

[@MelissaCoup]

Invested 14k in SPY in an individual acct on 2-22-22. $84 profit so far. Mon March 14th if it dips, I will earn more. No hurry. I am just going off of the 200 day average so when it really dips, I buy. I did this Feb 20th-Mid march during COVID and did well just getting out of the Market. No temptation to get back in at the wrong time just because every single darn day within those dates the SPY Dipped lower and lower for like 2 weeks straight. After 3-5 days of somewhat positive results, I bought back in. I am 53 years old so this really jump started my retirement acct which only has now about 17k but i don't trade it.
