Full time traders do you have this fear/phobia?

How longs a long losing streak to you?

if a losing streak wipes off a months profit that is bad enough for me. I will feel that i have wasted my time and my time could be better spent doing something else.

Could you live off your last 6mths earning from trading or come close to it if you have only been able to trade PT so far?

when i mean collapse i mean collapsed physiologically. You feel like there is no way to beat the market and stuff.

Do you make a profit overall?

A losing month isn't a waste of time if you've made a worthwhile profit over the last six or so months. Losses are the cost of winning.

In fact, even if somebody tries trading and loses I wouldn't call it a waste of time. A lot will have been learnt, and as they say, nothing ventured nothing gained.

I think you have just answered your question yourself

Any thoughts along these lines and I wouldn't recommend you going full-time at the moment
