I think it's time to have a poll to gauge how many people here are actually full time traders. I think it will be interesting.

To make it clear and simple, let's define 'full time trader' as someone who earns the majority of their living from trading.

just quit my job coz of an abusive boss otherwise I might have gone mad and hit him one day. I do not harbour any grandeur illusions of being a full-time trader.

I'm looking for employment while trading as my account is too little to live on ....sad I have to move back to my parents home after 4 years of independence.

Trading is what gave me the confidence to go through with this.

I'm down but not out.

my risk profile will not change and will remain conservative.

Full time trader are those who have the time and money to be with trades all the day. Well these are somehow pro traders as they invest big money and there are many criteria that has effect on their trades!! I cannot categories myself as full time as i dont have so much time to adhere myself to forex nor i have so much money to invest in this market. Well i prefer to trade and make some money and that why i have chosen Forex Contest as this is a good way of earning some money and it is more fun than normal trading system.

huh, 41% of votes are for full-time. that's pretty much.
I guess I will never choose this way. I like forex because I can live they way I like. That means do what I want whenever I want. With full-time trading there is no difference between trading and office job.

there is difference. full time short term fx trading requires 24x5 attention. Except if you can make money playstation style - on FRF, LON NY openings. Not attractive proposistion at all.
