Day, Swing, Long term, Paper ^-^!!!...~~~~Dec 4, 2020

 Okay so many people don't know this about me but I trade for a living now. I studied and paper traded for over 2 years and recently I started trading with my real money. It was my friend Victoria and her husband that explained the wonders of stock investment. I'm extremely thankful they did. 

 Over time, I found that swing and long term trading fits me a lot better than day trading. I found there was much more freedom in swing and long term than there was with day trading. Day trading you have to be glued to your computer and extremely focused, fast acting and unemotional for an extended amount of time. Whereas swing or long term is much more calm. You buy the stock you want and you can go on about your day, week, month- like it's nobody's business. Since I'm now a mother, I found that fits me a whole lot better. I can now relax during the day and get things done like; cooking, cleaning, breastfeeding, reading, etc.

I've also grown an interest for FX trading. My friend N, originally coaxed me into the idea. I already joined a new broker specifically for FX trading but I haven't made a single trade yet. I'm still considering if it's something that would fit my lifestyle right now. We will see!
