Why do I love stock market trading

When I began trading in the equity market, I was very eager, and quite positive. In fact, I did a little research on internet, and also went through success stories about individuals who made it big, after hitting lows. Little did I realize then the term “hitting low”, and how crucial and traumatic it can be.

In the beginning I had this macho attitude within me, which will say no matter what happens, I will start earning pretty soon from the stock market. Believe me, it was very tough. Although, I somehow managed to curb losses, but it was heart wrenching at times. To be able to control your urge in the stock market, especially at times when after a series of losses, you find an opportunity, and then not to trade at that moment can be very difficult.
