Is it worth it to start learning stocks trading? is it that hard

It's like everything else. Unless you got an iq of like 135+ and that kind of person who tunrs everything you touch into success you will have to read books, practice, work hard for years and may loose some on the way. But eventually if you got half a brain and actually poured your soul into it you will earn money with enough risk awareness and all the other factors you need to learn to trade. But without a good starting capital it will be slow as hell to actually build your money unless you are lucky in the start.

Personally ive been into the stock market for about two years. Had some luck with the swedish fingerprint reader company FPC on its ride up. But now ive started to read books on trading and the stock market. Gonna try to get serious into trading. But i know it will take time and effort. I know thats probably what you dont want to hear, but its pretty much the truth in any lifechoise.

invest and learn the fundamentals for 6 months before starting to trade.
You must invest your own money though not some bullshit demo account.

Not sure if this is what you went for with your comment but you have a point.

Using your own money makes it much more emotionally challenging to succeed in the stockmarket. Your ability to remain objective after you made a terrible trade is for some extremely hard and one of the things not books but experience will teach you.

Start with trading money that you can afford to loose and just get your bearings. Eventually you will feel that you can see patterns and so on. This is when you have taken the first step into trading.

Read read read, practice practice practice!

how much you made in those two years?

Worth noting is that i had incredible luck with FPC. Would have been a millionaire if i saw the opportunity just a year earlier but that would have taken experienced eyes and a bit of luck to see.

I went from about 35k$ to 70-80k but that wasnt trough smart trading just luck that i entered the market when a small swedish company from nowhere became world leading. So it should no where be seen as a sucess in trading because as soon as i tried to trade the stock i just missed out on more earnings.

But it did give me a better starting position to actually start diversifying and start trading with less risk than ive had untill now when i almost went 100% into one stock (bad move that can pay off)

You can trade with small amounts, it is just more risky using a high leverage, you can be very successful with it, but using it without any knowledge you will annihilate your whole worth of account

It's definitely worth it to learn, if you have the right mindset. Be prepared to lose some money.
I'm an amateur and don't know too much, but since I'm an electrical engineer I tend to mostly trade in the semiconductor industry and have made some good money.

If your financially secure, got good savings, and have some extra cash that your willing to lose, consider playing around with it.

Yes, everyone should learn to trade stocks! The more often you trade, the better. You should execute at least 10 trades everyday if you want to become rich.
