A trader is not unemployed; they just work hard for it to be enjoyed and used as an income. I am a trader and wanted to be financially stable without any side income to support my finances.
They can say unemployed maybe because they see traders are only at the comfort of their own homes and always staring at the screens of their devices but they don't realize that many traders are earning more than what can they get for a day and yes, it won't be possible if without a hard work. Trader or not, all wants to be like that or to be financially stable because that can give us a somehow comfortable life and a peace of mind.
To have a side income can allow us to earn more money but this can only be optional for some like you, if you think it's a bit time-consuming already and you think you are earning enough in your trading activities.
