Yes that's right. I think you still have to carry out your main job without having to quit your job, especially if you are already working as a civil servant, it feels strange to leave your job to focus on trading. It's best to do both, it will result in better finances in the future.
Actually, it's not strange, but it just seems too confident in trading work, even though a job like trading also has its advantages and disadvantages. So it is not desirable for everyone to leave their old job which has become the main source of income for their own life when there is a new job that they can do at the same time. So it's actually not strange, it's just that it's more inappropriate to be abandoned because everyone knows that when they can work more on some jobs, of course the results won't be less.
Indeed, being a good trader will automatically make you money. This is one of the few professions where the effort to improve instantly yields benefits. Trading may be difficult and risky, but it can also increase profits if parts of your overall strategy are successful.
What is called risk means of course there are advantages and disadvantages, because overall everyone will probably always be ready if their trading can always be profitable. However, some people are still not necessarily ready when their trading is not profitable or they experience losses due to corrections or even because of a change in trend from good to bad. So maintaining your main job by doing additional work at the same time is a pretty wise choice and also makes a lot of sense for everyone who wants more income.
