Trading has always been something that people viewed as difficult, at least that's what I thought when I started, but I like the fact that I see a lot more people doing both now.
I don't have a specific number but in the little things you can have an idea of how much more people are into trading now. I remember seeing the post about the amount of teams that registered for the KCGI trading
event, and all I could think of is how impressive it is that over 1500 teams each team consisting of different traders have signed up for something like that.
I might be making it more than it is, because I'm a big fan of trading in general, but I'm really glad trading is becoming more and more accessible.
I would say that what inspires and influences the growth in the number of traders is the need to get Rich. A lot of people have cracked the code when it comes to trading and they are making money from it. This is rapidly increased the number of people that are becoming interested in it. People believe in results, once they see that something is working they don't need anyone else to convince them
