Trading can be a lonely and boring business at some point because, you do not have anyone to talk to and are just alone with your computer, phone, or tablet in your room, just trading. And many newbies may at some point think that they are probably wasting too much of their time. If you are in this situation right now, I want you to know that you are not wasting your time.
If you are an experienced trader reading this, how did you know that you were not wasting your time trading at the time when you felt this way?
Perhaps, it was useless facing in front of your computer doing nonsense business rather than making money. It feels boring for those who don't love trading but for me, I was comfortable living on it. While the others are talking outside, watching videos, and wasting their time...I was busy making money. Besides, you are not trading the whole day. I only spend 2-3 hours on the computer, meaning I still have plenty of time to engage in other activities and even family bonding. We owe our time and it depends on us how to manage them.
Each person has their own preferences, just as there were people that were going crazy due to the lockdowns caused by the pandemic, there were others that did not suffered because of this at all.
So while some people trade the markets and they feel miserable about it even if they are making money, there are others like you which enjoy it, so you are lucky as not only you have the skills to become a successful trader but you also have the right personality for a job like this.
