My understanding is that it's close to the stage of excessive addiction, but only if someone has the funds to invest in the trading activity. Trading addiction emerges when someone has the funds to trade, although the methods can vary, including taking out loans or going into debt. There are several ways to recognize someone starting to become addicted to trading, such as constantly talking about trading, checking chats all the time, and continuing to trade without limits despite frequent losses. This is a mistake that needs to be avoided, because uncontrolled trading addiction can affect a person's psychology and usually leads to unusual imaginations.
