Make a living trading
Hello everyone,
I'm in the UK and I'm planning to try to scrape a living from trading (spread betting) starting in April 2010. I have a career that I totally hate; I think I'll go insane if I can't get out of it. Offices in general do my head in. To trade for a living, from home, would be a dream come true for me. I can't tell you how badly I want it.
Trouble is, so far I mostly lose money instead of making it. I like the idea of trading things that can give me quick results so that I can tell whether I'm on the right track or not quickly; trading indexes, forex etc. But so far, if I've made money at all it's generally been from shares, which move at a glacial pace.
I've been studying trading in earnest for only about 2 months, and I know that it can take a while to get it right.
Good luck to everyone!
