I started stock trading 8 years ago.
I retreated from trading market in January this year completely.
While listening to somebody talking about stock trading, the words usually ends with “earned lots of money” or ” earned 1,000 USD in just one day.”
People may feel he/she must be good at stock trading.
But what I want to say is, the profit rate is much important than the profit amount.
Because the more one invested, the more amount of money may be earned and vice versa.

For example, if one invested 100 thousand USD and got 1,000 USD profit, the profit rate is 1%.
If one invested only 5,000 USD, the profit rate would be 20%.

So, if you hear of some talks about stock trading again, you can try to ask the profit rate, not the profit amount.

How about myself?
I did both, actually.
But no matter what I did in stock trading, I learned one thing from them.
“Stock trading is a fight to your own greediness”
