Is trading not considered a job?

[Mr. Cid]

For me, it's not a job because you won't get paid regularly.

National banks are likely one of the most volatile hotspots for fundamental trading. The rundown of moves they can make is huge; they can raise interest rates, lower them even into a negative area, keep them the equivalent, recommend their position will change soon, present non-conventional arrangements, mediate for themselves or others, or even revalue their currency.

It's a yes! Making a living on either day or long-term trading is a viable career, but it's not easy to make money.

It's money that you make on the job. But even if day trading is your only occupation, your earnings are not considered to be earned income. This means that day traders, whether classified for tax purposes as investors or traders, don't have to pay the self-employment tax on their trading income.

Not a good career choice for those who wanted to become flexible.

[Mr. Cid]

I wonder why we need to become flexible when it comes to selecting a career.

To be able to do some other task. For instance, when you investment in a crypto market, you do not need only to read news, but you also need to follow every news outlet to be able to catch the latest big event.

Trading is often viewed as a high barrier-to-entry profession, but as long as you have both ambition and patience, you can trade for a living (even with little to no money).
