For over a year plus I have been an active trader's mostly I trade on derivative market, oh yeah the most risky form of trading, since you can blow off your balance to liquidation if the market goes against your position, but that is not why we are here with this topic, but let dive into it straight away.

Future derivative trading is liken to gambling since both activities have similar outcomes and results which is either you gain it all your you lose everything, but with proper management one can still make something out of this risky trading pattern but once you hit the jackpot, it becomes almost a go to point whenever you want to trade.

So the question is, can one becomes addicted to trading same way gambling can be addictive?

If yes what are the sign to know that one is becoming a trading addicts?

Just as you hear of gambling in addition same thing happens in the trading world, most especially traders who usually lose money trading, and this is as a result of them chasing the after their loses which atin the end they've never been able to recover it. It's not something that happens immediately, but something that develop with time. I know of someone who almost trade everydaytrades every day, dondoesn't usuallytypically have time for himself and always on the chat, the last time I was with him, he told me he was gonna stop trading, and he stopped, but surprising to me, now he's fully back to trading the way he's used to.
