Go up to your boss in the office and stick to him and flip the table a few moments later it's the new year and you are thinking of a career change. You see them lambo ads online and decided to give this day trading career a try, and it's just all downhill from here, 2020 and 2021 have definitely been two very interesting years for the stock market because of what's going on around the world. More and more people are drawn into day trading to supplement their income and looking into day trading as a potential career change to go into full time. I've been day trading for over seven years now, and let me tell you starting out this career is definitely not as easy as step.
One download robinhood step two deposit, one hundred dollars and step three click buy, buy, buy and get ready to bank on the moon. I wish it was that easy in this video i'll be sharing with you, the four important steps to start your day trading career. It's definitely a process that takes a lot of planning in advance in order to make this big move the right way. So if you want to see this detailed breakdown of starting a day trading career the right way and not end up on the street, all i ask is that you drop a like at the bottom of the video for prosperous 2022.
Alright, the first step to starting your day trading career is to keep your current job. What okay? I know this may sound counterintuitive, but this is a very important foundation for everything we're building here. Please, don't quit your job right away to day trade. It doesn't matter whether you're working part-time full-time, whether you hate your boss, you hate your colleagues or just whatever you're doing keep your job.
That's because you'll need this income to sustain yourself for the next six months or the next year. While you start day trading having the stable income source that you can count on, will provide you the mental comfort to take trading slow and allow yourself to actually learn the foundations of risk management and all the trading strategies. Many people make the mistake of quitting the job cold turkey and just bet 100 percent on the fact that they could start living off the day trading income right away after seeing some get rich quick schemes online. Unfortunately, if you do that as a new trader, you could be putting an end to your day trading career before you even started, keep in mind just because you can download a day trading.
App like robinhood in two minutes doesn't mean you can start making money day. Trading in two weeks or even two months - yes, i understand it might be a torture going to that job. You hate for another six months. I've done the same thing too, but believe me, the short-term sacrifice is very much worth the long-term reward.
Now we have step one out of the way, let's move on to step number two, which is to actually start learning to day trade. I've done many videos on this topic before on exactly what beginner traders should focus on when learning to day trade from scratch. First make sure you start trading with a paper trading account at brokers such as thinkorswim, interactive brokers or weeble. Don't risk your hard earned money right away then, while you're practicing on the simulated trading, account start learning about charting technical analysis and all the basics of buying and selling stocks with free resources online such as this channel you're watching right now and don't forget to track And journal your trading results in the meantime, doesn't matter whether it's paper trading or not, it's important for any day traders to really understand their edge and to understand what kind of trading strategies and risk profile is best suited for their trading account. Once you spend a few weeks or a few months, paper trading, while learning from free resources online, if you decide that day trading is indeed something you want to start focusing on more seriously then, and only then it's time to enroll in a structured day trading education Program such as the humble trader academy, you cannot build a roof on your house until you've had a solid foundation just like you cannot start scaling up in trading unless you've really learned how to implement risk management, stock analysis and tracking your data on various trading strategies. Now, let's move on to the third step of starting your day trading career - and this is perhaps one of the most important steps to transition to day trading full time, and that is to start tracking your personal finances. Since the goal is to eventually quit your job. For a career change, it's important to calculate your monthly expenses and figure out how much money you need to save up in order to live comfortably for at least one year after you quit your job without relying on daily trading income.
Do you know how much money you should allocate for rent food utilities and transportation costs? Are you tracking all the money you're bringing in each month from your job and all your expenses paid in cash or credit cards, and did you forget to hit the like button at the bottom of the video when it comes to personal finance? I know a lot of people can geek out about the excel spreadsheets and all those complex charts and graphs and crap like that, but not for me. I see an excel spreadsheet and that immediately triggers my headache personally, i like to streamline everything and make it as friction free as possible. I use a free personal budget and expense tracking tool like mint by intuit, to track all of my expenses each month. I just create a free account, connect the app to all my credit cards and bank accounts.
Then the website would just automatically update all the spendings and categorize everything for me on a weekly basis. The only form of payments that they cannot track is payment by cash, and for that reason i no longer pay anything in cash. There are so many other apps or websites out there that allow you to track your personal spendings. It doesn't matter whether you use mints.com, like i do or use an actual excel spreadsheet, because you are much smarter than me as long as you do. Whatever is easiest for you to really categorize all of your personal expenses and spending and from there after you can look at all the categories and really optimize your numbers. I remember around the time i was preparing to quit my job to go full time into day trading. This is many. Many years ago, each month i was spending 800 on rent 200, i'm going out to restaurants 150 on groceries, 100 on gas 200 on the parties.
100 on student loan payment and i allocated around 200 extra per month for miscellaneous expenses that may come up by surprise. This adds up to about 1750 per month of living expenses, keep in mind that this is more than six years ago. That's why all the figures here sound a little bit too cheap to be true, taking consideration of inflation each and every single year, so that 1750 is probably around 2 000 per month in 2022. And, of course, it definitely helped that i was single and in my early 20s and i just graduated from college, so life was just simpler back then, and i have no kids and no one would be that surprised.
If i just slept on a mattress on the floor - and yes, that's right, rent was only eight hundred dollars a month for me living in a city because i was living in a two-bedroom apartment with two other roommates. If you really want to save up enough money for yourself to switch to full-time day trading, you got ta, do whatever it takes. So that's how we got the 1750 per month living expenses. Now you take the number and times it by 12.
That would be 21. 000 now just to be safe. I rounded up the figure to 25 000 in order to leave some cushion in my budgets. So if you've been following through all the steps that we just talked about tracking your monthly expenses and all the categories that you should be able to calculate how much money you should save up for your one year of living expenses in your bank, account note, i Said to keep those savings in your bank account not in your trading account you shouldn't day trade with the money, that's intended for you to live on for the next 12 months, because that would be extremely risky.
Having that 12 month, financial runway, tucked away in your bank account safely without the risk of market volatility and risk of well dumb human decisions will give you a better sense of security and insurance, because, let's be real, we as day traders, we do some stupid emotional Things sometimes, and the only way, to keep our cool follow. Our risk management and trading plans is to be able to detach ourselves from the money and keep our losses small, so 25, 000 u.s. This was the figure i needed to save in my bank account from my working income before i can actually quit my nine to seven job to go day trading full time, maybe you're, looking at your own number right now and thinking this is impossible, i'll, never get There, but seriously, if you make the effort every single bit added up in order to save twenty five thousand dollars, i cut back on going out to eat food deliveries, alcohol partying and i cooked at home a lot more. I also terminated my car needs around that time and started taking public transit and rode my bike to work seriously. You can be very creative and proactive about savings. If you want this day trading career, bad enough, you will find a way to make it work. If you think this budget tracking and all the savings stuff sounds like too much hassle, then i guess just don't day. Trade just buy and huddle like the cool kids say now that you've done steps one two, three, you didn't quit your job.
You've been learning to day trade you've been saving up your one year of living expenses. Now it's finally for the fun part that we've all been waiting for, go out to your boston office and stick to him and flip the table. Tell me how much you hate your job, okay, i'm just kidding. I don't condemn that sort of dramatic exit i like to keep things very low key again.
This is the same reason. I recommend saving up a generous one year of living expenses outside of your trading account. Everything we're preparing here is to provide you some emotional security, so you don't have to start your day trading full-time career. Under pressure before i officially quit my job to switch to full-time day trading, i would take little small time-off breaks for my job, such as taking the middle of the week off for two days or sometimes up to five days during those days off.
I would wake up and go through the day. A survival is already day trading full time. This way, i could fully experience the routine of waking up early planning for the trades pre-market and trading after the open and see. If i really like this lifestyle, i was striving towards this entire process of planning to quit my job and go full time into day.
Trading took a good one year and a half for me to prepare, if not more, like i said in the beginning of the video just because it's easy to download a day trading app in two minutes doesn't mean you can start day trading career in two days Or even two months, i read this amazing quote online and it's one that really resonated with me. Till this day. Learning to day trade means living a few years of your life. Most people won't.
So you can live the rest of your lives like most people can't like i mentioned earlier, it all comes down to sacrifices. Do you want this bad enough? Maybe it means partying less on weekends, eating out only once a week and sleeping only six hours a day and keeping only one boyfriend day trading is not an easy journey, but certainly one that could be very rewarding. I hope this process i described in the video can help you prepare for a career in day trading full time.

Hi Shay! Do you trade options? If u do, mayb u cld do a video about it? 😬
Why do you prefer to trade US stocks instead of Canadian even though you live in Canada.
So we had a huge crash, and rather then post ahead of the fed meeting, you decide to pump a trading course LOL! WTF!!!
I can't remember yesterday, but I remember a young couple that got married in 1976. He graduated with a degree in mathematics and his bride was a teacher's assistant. They paid for everything in cash and at the end of the month they didn't know where their money went. Well I graduated the next year as an engineer, so I wasn't going to fall into that trap. I recorded all my expenditures for a year. I made $16,000 and could account for everything, but $300. The amazing thing was many expenditures didn't fall into the normal categories like food, rent, gasoline, etc., it was just misc stuff. I could see why the couple didn't know where their money went. Anyways, I retired as a multi-millionaire at 55-years old.
I’m bagholding over 16000 shares of ArkG. Do you think it will ever go back up to 70 dollars again?
You cook at home !? …. just kidding

Hello, Humbled Trader. I live in Korea. I am not good at English. I have been trading for 8 years. I can not continue to make profit. I HAVE margin call after one month all the time. I need your advise. with reference I trade nq100 with 3,000 dollars with 1 lot. I have experience of earning 10,000 with 3,000 dollars 2 times in my life. in the long run I have margin call within 1~2 months.
Here for the Bad Jokes😂😂😂😂😂😂
Becoming a day trader is EASY…just loose a bunch of money daytading, then start a YouTube channel full time telling everyone all the mistakes you made…You'll make more money here than daytading.
Thank you for another informative and inspiring video.
I started trading about 9 months ago when I turned 13 years old. My first few months certainly weren't the best, however, I am starting to get my head in the right place when it comes to trading. I've been profitable for the past few weeks in a row but after blowing up multiple accounts. Shay how long do you think is reasonable for me to start becoming profitable on a consistent basis especially at my age?
You are awesome!!! Thanks for all you do!!!
How long did it take you to become a profitable day trader, and when did you finally get the hang of trading?
How do I get from 16 dollars to a million by next week? jk
Hi Shay
You mean I can’t just hit that buy button and start banking??!?
