There is a lot of misconception that getting into trading means that you must immediately give your day job up, or that you need a formal education to be able to be successful. RocketTrades always keeps this quote in mind:

“You don’t need to be a rocket scientist. Investing is not a game where the guy with 160 IQ beats the guy with 130 IQ.” -Warren Buffet

Here are a few good reasons to get into trading to ease your worries:

No need for formal education to get started

Many high-paying professions require you to have a formal degree to even get in the career ladder. Trading does not have a minimum education requirement; anyone who is willing to learn can come in. There are many online resources and in-depth courses to teach you how to trade online.

You can trade anywhere

You do not need to report to a boss to trade – you are your boss! Not only that, but you can also trade from any place you want; you only need a smartphone and your favourite trading apps. It’s all about YOUR convenience.

It’s a good source for secondary income

Trading doesn’t require you to be actively working for 8 hours straight like a day job. You can have your main job and still be able to trade online on the side. All the decisions for your trading account are up to you.
