I trade daily for my breakfast money

@josiah_edem - 3 months ago - Forex Education

So, while most peoples goal of trading is to buy a car and live big, mine on the contrary is quite small- just to be able to pay for my breakfast in the morning. I work a day job so I have a salary and I do not exoect too much from trading. This has helped me to keep it simple and take winners once the money is enough to pay for my breakfast. Yeah, I know it may sound funny but I beleive in trading small.

Having a trading goal is good because it stops you from getting greedy. But may I ask, what about the days where you record a loss in the morning, will you try again or will you accept the loss and the fact that you wont be getting breakfast?

Its good not to expect too much from the market, that way you dont get disappointed and self-destruct

@weilo_daniel - 3 months ago

if you have a day job, take your salary and divide it by 30 and you will get your daily pay. if you can make a profit worth your daiily pay from the market every day, then you should be content because you are doing well.

I think the best approach to trading should be to slowly grow an account. This will make you more focused on the long-term and not chase daily gratification.

I like this thread because it encourages us to be realistic. Beginners should learn to start small, trade just for your basic necessities, then after a couple of years you can upgrade.
