How Much Money Do You Need to Start Trading for a Living?

★ SUMMARY ★
When I look at this question, I see the answer in two parts: 1) what kind of lifestyle do you want? and 2) how much money do you need to start trading to get to that lifestyle?

Lifestyle
What kind of lifestyle do you want?

You will first need to answer this question before moving on to the next. Do you want to party 5 nights a week and spend $200 a night? Do you want to live in a $5 million mansion? Maybe you just want to be a stay-at-home parent who has a few hundred dollars a month to help support your family.

This also applies to where you wish to live. If you’re trading in the U.S. market but living in Costa Rica, the lifestyle costs are different. You need to do some research and calculate what type of lifestyle you need or want and configure costs…

  1. Becoming a professional trader would be my dream come true but for now am confident with the chat room i joined in January invented by BILAL BENJAMIN
    Consistency has brought me this far to be sincere am profiting awesomely

  2. Wow so many people cofuse investing with trading. If you buy 1000 shares on a 5.00 stock and the stock move to 6.00 in a few minutes you make $1000. on a 5000 "investment" 20% in a few minutes. You set your risk at 10/15/20/25 ct. Always aim to make atleast 1:2 risk vs reward. Risking 20 ct to make 40 ct. Investing only works great when you have alot of money.. Not with a small acount. The time you are 80 with a yearly 5/20% return on a small account you can buy yourself a nice graveyard spot and coffin.

  3. Isn't the most important thing the actual thing going on with the company involved? Everyone has claimed systems and ways to analyze stocks, but what about new breakthroughs or important projects certain companies are working on that could be important to keep an eye on the news for when said projects become available to the public. For example, I read about a company that is developing a.i technology that will be used for amputee victims to operate an artificial limb, so surely the companies that release this technology will really profit, and their stock price will be hyped up if their products do not live up to expectations, so it gives a certain predictability to the stock price. It seems like there is more research involved, and less mathematics other than basic reasoning. How many people just throw money at stocks on gut feelings, and hope for the best?
