Why do you trade?
It is important to understand the true drivers behind why you trade the markets. The answer is different for everyone. We all have different circumstances, wants, wishes and desires.
Find yours.
Below are common reasons people get involved:
Entertainment Gambling Staying informed about economic and political developments Intellectual pursuit and curiosity Side income Primary income Advising friends and family Professionally managing a fundYour reasons influence how you attack markets. For example, people managing their own wealth might prioritize account growth over shallow drawdowns, whereas the individual looking to run money professionally will need to focus on risk control. Then you have the gamblers who will undboudtedely gravitate towards penny stocks and out-of-the-money options.
Your reasons for trading also greatly influence the amount of time and energy you will need to commit to the markets. Simply placing trades and having fun without regard to your profits and losses will take a few minutes a week. On the other hand, launching a fund will take all your time and energy just like any other business startup.
