DislikedTo answer your above question:
With all I had juggling during my learning stages it was about 10-20 hours a week physical trading time. In reality I was thinking about it 24/7.
Now I read this:
Sorry if this is too blunt but it seems like you are down now Leon...? I don't know how your trading is going but it seems like you are all over the place with your thoughts at this time. Maybe a little time off would help, but dont expect to come back any better off. You will not improve without practice and application of what you are learning....Ignored
Its just difficult when people In my real life dont understand what Im doing here, and suggest Im lazy/dreaming and would be better off picking up some more Overtime. That coupled with the failure rate and uncertainty of the markets and a methods long-term profitability being in question even If I do manage to convince myself I have something at some point.
Its a daunting thing that so much time could be wasted for no gain, after all, Its a sure thing that most on this forum wont make it. Why am I any different?(question to self)
None of this is writen In self pitty. Im just reflecting on things out loud, standing back and taking a reality check. My previous post was really talking about maturity, maby afew years later on we get more objective, Or maby I just need to take in more sugar while Im trading, Ive herd it helps you think better.
Hope your well.
Living the adventure in my head.
