I do trading part time starting September.
I recommend that you have a sort of a side-business or a solid income
besides the trading. Why? Because even pro traders will have bad months, the market
itself will have bad periods. You will have problems with some brokers, withdrawal delays
etc. Also depends on which country you live in. If you live in a cheap country with basically
zero tax and average income is 300 dollars a month then I think you could do just fine if
you have 2-3 relatively large trading accounts with different brokers and maintain a consistent
profit. Also, I suggest you at least save up one or two years worth of spending money
before you quit your job. Conclusion, get yourself a second income before you quit and move to a cheap country
and you should be ok. -
Thank you for the answer.

I had a choice surf around the world with friends, get drunk singing kumbya naked at night on moonlit beaches around the world that you can't pronounce or in some cases can't make out how on earth could view them as words much rather be a name of something? Or I could be in a relationship with a very beautiful and very expensive pillow connoisseur who invests our money in pillows/real estate/odd cooking utensils "to which I still don't know what the ____ most of them are even for." I think I was drugged, because I picked the later. So now I am a trading slave as I don't get to keep any of the money to buy cars, midget hookers, rent cool jets or exotic homes ect ect. Nope none of that sh*t. What do you consider success? Is it lots of money? Is it lots of sex? Is it lots of pillows? No matter where you go there you are, so you better like who you are as everything else is just pointless details such as why the ____ would anybody pay over $600 for a pillow!
Sorry did not answer your question took me under 4 months then again I am phucking amazing and always have been though its not like I am ever going to care. Then again could you count my employment previously as "Wheres the next wave baby..." -
I do it part time. Anyway, you need to same some decent capital before you go trading full time.

I never stopped trading but It took me a long time to get to the point where I felt comfortable relying on trading as my main source of income.
