Can I have a precise and constructive answer on whether trading is really worth spending time on? My brother wants to do this job for a living, and I'm just curious if it's a dignified, worth-spending occupation. I don't know where to ask, I don't understand technical analysis; when he explains it to me I feel it's some sort of gambling strategy.
I've used to read experts' discussions, papers, books and the like, but I find no such stuff on trading. It's a very vague term anyway. Are there really people who just "buy low and sell high", making a living by just doing that? I can't comprehend how can a person seriously make a living by something that looks complete gambling, instead of providing goods, services, work etc.
A beginner can't have crypto trading as a full-time job. Trading needs broad understanding because it's a long process of learning. You can rely on it when you already know the basics plus the technical analysis and strategies that you can apply. It needs time and courage for you to understand everything. It has huge risks and might lead you to losses if you'll enter it without enough knowledge.
