Me very new in trading and always feel scared when trading in a real account . so i never listen any music during news. i hope only mature trader can do this due to their confidence.
my little experience says there is no part time trader cant be a professional or successful trader. the success issue its all about a very long term policy , so as a part timer i think that is impossible.
beginners generally make their balance in demo but when they start a real account fall a great trouble and trade at random. when making some losses they try to recover this losses by trading over and over which call revenge trading. at the end of the week they lost their almost whole equity. this is the major mistake .
