Why did you become a professional ..... trader?
Ola,
I can get a traineeship at a trading firm which offers me the chance to obtain experience on different security types and I can determine thereafter in which type of security I want to specialize myself to become a professional trader.
So therefore I am very curious about the professional traders around here. Why did you become a professional bond, stock, or deriviative trader? So what attracted you to become trading in stocks, bonds, or derivative that the other type of security did not offer? And if you could do it all over again would you switch trading in another type of security?

I just used that many periods for you guys to fill in the security type that you are (professionally) trading. Professional ...... trader. So, professional stock trader / professional bond trader / professional derivative trader, etc. etc. And yes most of the persons around here like the game and the challenge (so do I ;-)).
So for example you are a (professional) stock trader. What was your reason(s) to become a stock trader and not a bond or derivatives trader? Thus, I am interested in the reasons why you became a trader in a particular type of security and not another type of security? For example, did you become a (professional) stock trader because of the dividend received?

I became a pro futures(macro) trader because I enjoy the leverage. It's high stakes poker in my eyes. I also think stocks do not offer enough transparency. It is nothing more than alchemy on a balance sheet.
