How Long Does It Take To Become a Profitable Trader?

[JoeMama-esnd]

Been trading for 2 years it’s not as easy as some people think. Consistency is key

[chessandmathguy]

Well put. I've been trading for over 17 years and I can remember it took a LONG time before I found any success. It takes more dedication than many people can understand.

"Buy low, sell high." "The trend is your friend." "Trade with patience, not emotion."💡💡👍

I started trading less than a year ago and I’m profitable. Don’t get this stuck in your head. It can be done if you’re truly putting in the work and looking at charts every session

1000%, it took me 3 years to become a beast .... I'll be the richest day trader in the U.S. in 10 years

Never giving up on trading it took people 10 years and some 2 why quit eventually you will succeed

[knowledgeafterdusk]

It can take 2 years sometimes. Sometimes it can happen in 10. The goal is to stay consistent and persevere. Trading is a lifelong skill that can only benefit you when you master it.

Realistically tho, , if you are dialed in, . It takes 2/3 years to become consistent

[terrimateus]

Trading can take any amount of time it all depends on the individual

You cannot take random ass trades and call yourself a trader. You really have to learn the process of it, dedicate yourself to this. Most people can probably only do it part time because of full time jobs, treat this like it's your personal business, study it on your free time to build that business.

Year 4, not profitable yet but will not give up💪

[OfficialKINGQUE]

3 years later I’m just now becoming profitable

Glad to be autistic, numbers, patterns, data analysis are my jam.

[FarEastTrader]

All true. Right after my pre trading year I started being serious in trading and I give my self a span of 4 years to learn what I need in this career I chose.

Couldn’t take a break if I wanted .. I think I’m addicted lol

[yeahyeah]

Easy if you don’t have a job to put food on the table for your family. Then again if I were 18 living with mom and dad again I probably could pull it off. Key is too start young. Teens if possible

This is the only trader I believe because there is no secret to trading it requires you to back yourself in a corner and give it your

It's a bit different these days. There's a lot of YouTube content these days about trading, that there wasn't 5 and 10 years ago. You could be profitable in a year or two now.
