What Are the Expectations for Year Zero and Year One of a Trader?

Trading is not something that you start today and become financially free in a year. There's so much to learn in this game that you could not possibly pick this all up in that quick of a time. So I'd say give yourself at least three, four years from that point. You do, it does take money to make money in trading. But ultimately, most people just expect to be rich, straight up.
