Nope - you didn’t shit all over it. This is a fair disclaimer for anyone venturing on this journey. There’s a steep learning curve - it’s many times harder than writing full stack code and solving business problems. To be moderately successful, you’ll need to acquire practical knowledge on many different topics (economics, sociology, statistics, technical analysis, stock exchanges, brokers, margin, local trading/day trading laws, etc). And this is just for stocks/ETFs, leaving out Futures and Options (skip those in your first few years). It’s a very raw, dog eats dog kind of world. Each person is out for themselves. You’ll experience a whirlwind of emotions. I find it best to schedule positions ahead of time, and avoid trades in real-time. It’s so important to manage your emotions and protect your capital.
