didn't know blastoise had a brother....

Why do YOU YOU YOU YOU, NOT ME, NOT HIM, NOT HER, YOU want to be a trader? And I'm expected to know this answer how?

Why do YOU (see above) think you'l be a good trader? Facepalm.

To be helpful in your questions, you need to think about what strengths a good trader has, logical, unemotional/level headed, risk aware, capable of identifying opportunities, and thinking if you have them or not, and if you do, examples of when you have displayed this.

TRADING IS NOT A CAREER YOU GO INTO BECAUSE YOU LIKE THE MONEY IT EARNS. The chances are significantly against you making money if you don't have the above qualities, You'll earn nothing, get fired and have no transferable skills or experiences. That said you'll ignore this, look at how much top traders earn and think yea thats easy I can do that and then not be able to answer the most fundamental questions involved in career decisions.
