I'm interested in what people did before they became traders and how they made the transition.
I worked on a Chemical plant for nearly 20 years. Luckily the shift pattern gave me time off in the week and I started watching the charts. I demo'd for a bit then started with very small stakes. I was a couple of years down this path when a new management team took over at work. Streamlining and cost cutting were the new watch-words. Ultimately, they stopped us working weekends. So, with my time off midweek curtailed and a big hit on my salary - I decided it was time to leave and try trading full time.
That was six months ago - I've never regretted the decision to leave, but I can't say I've made it yet either. I'm going to review my progress every 6 months. As long as I can pay the bills and I'm still keen, I'm going to carry on.
