This question is asked over and over and over again by many, many people. The answer is: aYes, it is possible!a

And, better yet, you yourself can perform it.

Sometimes people donat trust me when I say , full-time day traders they can become, but itas true.

Since I donat want to get in to a deep conversation about ahow much money is really a decent living for you,a letas only assume that you'd be quite happy if you were making $150,000 annually, and letas say that you are making this money with your trading. Does that sound fair?

Letas split it down: $150,000 per year would be $12,500 per month, or, if you prefer, $3,000 per week. This really is assuming that you're taking fourteen days of vacation annually.

Daily targets were set by important: Donat whenever you deal. So that you can generate income, two problems need to be met:

- YOU have to get ready to trade.
- THE MARKETPLACE must be ready to be exchanged.

There will be days when you're not at your absolute best (disease, emotional stress, virtually no time because of a crisis, etc.), and there will be days when the industry isn't ready to be exchanged (e.g. holidays, including the days before and after holidays, days before a significant media release, just like the Federal news regarding interest rates or the unemployment report, etc.).

And thatas why you shouldnat set daily goals in your trading: these goals may force you to deal on days when both of the previously mentioned problems a' you AND the market being ready a' aren't met.

Itas very important to start small and set a weekly goal for only ONE agreement, or 100 shares. So that it is easy for one to reach it, this goal should be LOW, very low. Think of high-jumping: with a bar thatas only three feet high you train. Itas simple to jump. Then, when feet are managed three by you, you improve the bar still another inch. And yet another. And still another.

Like, in the initial one month of one's trading, your weekly target might be set by you at $100 per contract. This may sound too easy for you, but remember that ninety days of investors lose profit the areas. When you can make $100 per contract regularly, you can begin araising the bar.a Take to $150 per contract per week. Improve the bar again and again, but ensure that youare still comfortable in achieving your targets.

Eventually, the bar might be raised by you to $300 per cont
