Trading Reality

Product Information

Compared with gambling, problem trading is more likely to be seen as a socially acceptable activity. Search for “passive income” on any social media platform, and you’ll see account after account offering tips on how to make money from assets rather than work. As one viral sound clip on TikTok puts it: “Darling, I’ve told you several times before, I have no dream job – I do not dream of labour.” Each episode features an in-depth interview with a real trader who shares their unique trading journey and the lessons they’ve learned. The trader says he “started with a small account 12 years ago out of school, ran it up from 10k to 700k” before “almost going bust last year.” Stress and psychological burdens

This transformation is largely thanks to founder and CEO Jensen Huang, whose business savvy seems on par with his tech brilliance. CFO Colette Kress also deserves much credit, as she's been the finance leader for eight years. But what really sets this podcast apart is its focus on personal development and entrepreneurship. Akil understands that trading is not just about making money but also about building a successful and fulfilling life, ultimately leading to becoming a profitable trader. Some exchanges offer financial products that can make trading extra risky (and arguably more addictive), such as leverage trading, which gives traders the chance to trade with 10 or even 50 times the amount of money in their account. The catch? If the trade doesn’t play out correctly, even by a little bit, their entire account can get liquidated in an instant. A full-time trader who goes by the handle apo99 on the Elite Trader forum spoke about the stress that comes with day trading:

A suspenseful, professional-grade north country procedural whose heroine, a deft mix of compassion and attitude, would be welcome to return and tie up the gaping loose end Box leaves. The unrelenting cold makes this the perfect beach read. Swing trading is a popular strategy involving holding a position for several days to weeks. It’s a trading strategy that requires discipline, patience, and a deep understanding of the markets. As a swing trade, you should have a plan for every trade you make.According to one CFD retail investor writing anonymously online, each loss made him more determined to chase a win, resulting in more and more losses. Retail investors believe that if they land on the right strategy, they’ll be able to make money, but unlike institutional investors, many do not have the level of understanding of historical market data that comes from years of studying and working in finance. Instead, trading is more of a side hustle and investors make decisions based on piecemeal research or even gut feeling. The latter is especially risky – any fluctuation in price movements can lead to feelings of panic or elation, resulting in rash decisions. The similarities between trading and gambling are hard to ignore. In 2022, the industry regulator, the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), found that a fifth of retail investment app users were at risk of problem gambling. In the past two years, 250 investors have reached out to GamCare, the gambling charity, for support. Callers reported getting a “high” from trading online, often trading throughout the night. Some wanted to leave their jobs so that they could trade full time. According to one user: “I was looking at the trading apps nearly 16 hours a day. I kept putting my money in and chasing losses … That’s when I realised it was no longer trading – it was a gambling problem.” Hosted by Akil Stokes, a professional trader, entrepreneur, and globally respected trading coach, this podcast delivers fresh, new weekly, entertaining, and informative episodes.

At all skill levels, trading can be a stressful activity. One study found that even professional traders experienced heart palpitations when the market was particularly volatile. Over time, chronic stress can lead to even bigger problems, from increased risk of heart disease to anxiety and depression (though the research on traders specifically is limited). Then there are the usual health problems associated with too much sitting down and staring at screens. As a part-time trader posting as responseBot indicated on the Fragile Deal forum, “[Being a successful trader is] more than a full-time job, just on improving and researching their trades. Attention to detail is often very important. A part-time commitment is quite unlikely to succeed.” Trader apo99 at the Elite Trader forum noted the difficulty of making a mistake as he suffered “a 200k loss [during 2022] in 2 days, took a huge option trade and screwed up, something I had no business doing.”

Nvidia: A leader in many high-growth technologies

Forget about solving all these crimes; the signal triumph here is (spoiler) the heroine’s survival. Predicting an asset’s price movements is about more than just your gut instinct. Most traders use complex technical indicators to make their predictions, such as by noting changes in a moving average (the average price of an asset over a certain time period). TradingView, a platform where traders can create custom charts of assets, offers users more than 100 technical indicators, ranging from simple moving averages to complicated tools like Fibonacci projections, Gann Fans, and Ichimoku Clouds. If you’re struggling to understand what any of that means, you’ll see why most beginners run into trouble. Matterport has been transforming itself into a subscription-focused company, with subscription revenue accounting for 52% of total revenue in the first half of 2021. This is a positive for investors because subscription businesses generate recurring revenue.

If this all sounds too good to be true, that’s because it may be. By law, trading apps that offer CFDs such as eToro, Trading 212, IG and others have to issue disclaimers to any new customer warning that retail investors – people who trade using their own cash rather than institutional investors, who invest on behalf of clients – lose money when trading CFDs. Depending on the platform that could be between 71% and 87% of investors. Media portrayals of day trading may make you believe that you only need to work for an hour a day and then sit around raking in the cash, but the reality is far less glamorous. Think hours upon hours of staring at lines on a screen, then spending most of your downtime studying the markets. This course is essential for the traders that know technical analysis in theory but they want to trade with real money. Plus, while day trading isn’t a scam, many scammers prey on beginners. You need to know how to identify and avoid them. Time commitments You will learn about the usual errors made by retail traders so that you don't make the same mistakes that everyone did when they first started trading.Matterport just went public in July via a reverse merger with a special purpose acquisition company, but the Silicon Valley-based company has been in business since 2011. Its platform enables the creation of detailed 3D digital replicas -- or "digital twins" -- of buildings and other physical spaces. Another reason why day traders tend to lose money is that it’s very different from long-term investing. While traders take advantage of price swings (which means they have to make specific predictions), investors tend to buy a diversified basket of assets for the long haul. They’ve got time and diversification on their side.
