{"content":"🚨 The Hard Truth About Trading 🚨 A lot of people jump into trading thinking it’s a quick way to become rich overnight. The reality? Most end up losing money, especially in day trading. Peter Brandt, a veteran trader who has been profitable since 1975, shared what it really takes before you can even consider becoming a full-time trader: ✅ You’ve had at least two years in a row making over 50% average profit. ✅ Your capital comes from profits you already made, not from salary or borrowed money. ✅ You’ve done at least 1,000 trades — experience matters more than hype. ✅ You have 2 years of living expenses saved, completely separate from your trading funds. ✅ You have mentors or fellow traders who can keep you disciplined and call you out when you lose focus. The point is simple: 👉 Trading is not a shortcut. It’s not a game. 👉 Without preparation, it can burn your money and your time. Be patient. Be structured. Be disciplined. Only then can trading become a long-term career, not just a gamble. 💡 Respect the process, and the profits will come.","images":["https://d2kdcqywr8ua22.cloudfront.net/uploadfile/article/blog/2025082025/08/21/b1e6b60827da44e5ab9c74f424a8abae.jpg"],"tags":[],"tradingPairs":[],"quotearticleid":0}
