Trading is a risky activity where survival is very challenging for a person. Even if you are an experienced trader, it is very difficult for a person to endure the mental stress of trading for a long time. Even in the initial stages of learning to trade, most traders cannot bear the amount of pressure and losses that a beginner faces, so they take alternative paths to succeed. Even an experienced trader has to spend a lot of time to make consistent profits and also lose a lot, which is very difficult for a common person to bear. Even the risk of losing money makes the life of a trader more difficult. So sometimes even an experienced trader is seen taking alternative paths to succeed.
Trading is a stressful thing where you have to constantly check the market to keep yourself updated. Even keeping yourself updated about whats going on in market won't guarantee a success. It's certain that if you are starting a career in trading then start won't be easy because everyone faces loses in the start. If one realise that he is not getting success in trading despite his best efforts then it's best in his own interest to leave trading and look for long term investment.
