Think about this:-

When the growth of electronic trading forced mass redundancies for floor traders many turned to trading their own accounts from home base. The vast majority however phenomenally successful they had become started losing money.

Why?

Because they were previously working under a strict boss who imposed strict rules. They were not cut out for being self employed and failed to employ the required disciplines that any serious self employed business owner would understand.

@ lucky, trading is all about strict disciplines and psychology. You have to be in control of yourself and that means "knowing" thyself. I would suggest if you mean to continue you should trade minimum size to develop a consitently winning edge. Only once you are confident you have a highly refined personal system should you very gradually increase size.

lucky, you could study to become a brain surgeon, quite well paid job and interesting. Also you can quantify the remuneration to be expected from your labours after the training period is finished. Trading not so easy.
