    Default Why do you trade?

    Hi traders!

    A friend of mine has asked me to help her find online traders for her school research.
    To be able to go further, she has a few questions. Would you guys be so kind to help her out?

    1. How old are you?

    2. How often do you trade on average?
    (e.g. Daily, weekly or yearly)

    3. How long have you been trading?

    4. How were you introduced to online trading?

    5. What is your motivation to trade?
    Could you explain your motivation? Where did it come from and why?


    Appreciate your time! Thank you!!

    2.How long are my trades? Daily to weekly. But, I monitor the markets and my positions constantly.
    3.Studying for about a year. Actual trading for just few months.
    4. Google
    5.Money. I like it. I have access to more goods and services when I can give some money to people. And a little bit of financial independence with freedom thrown in there. I think we live in a world where freedom is bought.

    2. around 1000 trades per year...probably less this year.
    3. since 2013
    4. Looked it up on the interwebs.
    5. I'm a crazy conspiracy theorist...I've already stockpiled all my guns, ammo, silver and food. I don't trust the banks, gov, corporatocracy and pretty sure the NWO is coming for us all and the only choices are; go and hide in a cave in the mountains or learn their game. Their game is money.
    .......Or I just like the idea of making money with my head.

    1) 25
    2) Trade about 2-3 times a week
    3) About a year on and off
    4) Googling investing choices
    5) I want to learn good fundamentals early with small capital. Using paper money just isn't the same as using real money. I want to day trade for a living in the future. I'm already sick of working the 9-5. I like being my own boss.
