I used to play quite a lot of gaming before, when I came home from work. Since around 2 years, i do trading, run a crypto info site and lear about game theory/finance markets/market behaviour psychology
A lot of people here are typical autist spectrum guys(don't mean this in a bad way), making you perfect traders.
Traits that is common for trading and gaming:
Process a lot of information
Make quick decisions
Abstract thinking
Managing keyboard/mouse/inventory
Macro vs micro level(short vs long term market moves)
Not being emotional when losing
Computer games is such fucking waste of time, if you can have 55-60% winning trades and do 3-5% per week growing your stack of Bitcoin you are doing very well.
anyone else did this switch ?

Right there with you user, I have seen the light
Aaron Fisher

Hunter Thompson
tell me more
Easton James
I get too emotional... when dealing with qt GF or when investing.
Jacob Hernandez
I play vidya all day while my coins work for me. You don't have to look at charts all day to make sick profits in this market.
Charles Ross
Oh shit just got a text.
>dealing with qt (ex) GF
Fixed. Brb while I drink bleach.

>process a lot of information I just put money into whatever at least two of my youtube shills and at least one of my small discord groups talk about, write my portfolio in notepad, and stop thinking.
>make quick decisions I look at my gains or losses like once a week at best, only earlier if they're due to moon to an event, or something.
>abstract thinking You can literally use a flowchart when going into crypto. Below X marketcap with Y supply and Z daily trading, team has a reliable background, memes.
>managing Being a meme of the 21st century requires you know how to use periferals
>not being emotional when losing I get angry as fuck when losing in games and I still reach top levels. I stonewall my way through crypto because this entire market is a fucking joke and always goes up.
>computer games are a waste of time Having your money in so many worthless shitcoins that aren't guaranteed to moon is a waste of time. If 100% of your stack isn't a bunch of coins guaranteed to moon, you're retarded.
>having Bitcoin at all
Go away /g/

I have a 1080 TI, PS4, and Switch. I enjoyed Zelda, Mario, Persona 5, Nier, and DOOM this past year. I also make money trading. Not everything in life has to be either/or. Both bring me joy and entertainment. I do agree that those traits are helpful for both, though.

works maybe now , but will not work in the long term. better practice discipline now when it's easy
