The reason for me to write this thread is to ask any experienced all-around traders out there for advice and illumination on trading currency over the internet as a whole and what is the best route to take in this potential career path.
I am 22 years of age. Currently in the process of getting into a computer science associate degree and also thriving for ways to learn a career that would have potential to get me 6 figures. I'm a trades man in construction, I run my own subcontracting business. It gives me a pretty good income and has a pretty good career potential that is already developing due to my networking skills that I have developed through my journey of being self employed. All in all I'm asking for the best advice in what is the best route of online trading and best software as well.
Thank you everybody
Steve
Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?
6 figures eh, that's a good goal. I think you can get there quickly with your subcontracting work.
To make a 100k you'll need to make about 500 a day or 8,333.00 a month or so, which is not unreasonable by any means depending on your account size and your risk parameters.
You can open a Forex account with a minimal amount of money, same with futures.
I think the most challenging thing ahead for you is learning to deal with your emotions and finding a valid trading strategy that works in the market and that fits your personality. Before scaring yourself emotionally I would seek help.
