Robert ... don't give up your day job ... yet
Trading is certainly risky ... takes time to absorb enough material to be
succesful. If you get to trade well, it is very rewarding.
If you expect to support yourself on trading profits ... suggest $200K
starting capital ... and enough cash to support yourself for one year,
otherwise $20K will get you going.
Suggest joining trading groups and learning all you can... decide what king
of trader you want to be and focus in that area. It's best to be very good
in 1 area than mediocre in a lot of areas.
Suggest give yourself 6 months to get started .. get Amibroker ... a data
feed and learn technical analysis, fundamental analysis from your studies
and do some paper trading for a while ... just long enough to get the feel.
Then you can safely start with real trading ...
The most important aspect is probably risk management ... you can only go
broke once .. then you're out, so make sure you risk only what you can
afford on any single investment.
Having said all this, it can be a rewarding career ... financially and with
time freedom!
