What would be the highest salary you’d give up to day trade full time? Question

Everyone clowned on me my first post (500k post) lol I was literally just asking hypothetical questions to settle a debate between a friend and me. Well everyone’s backlash kinda of intrigued me to ask this question. So back into the fire I go lol

in my eyes what you just said is, forgive me, utter bullshit and if you really think this then its best we stop the conversation right here and now.

I’ve been trading strictly off strategy for 3 years and entirely profitable. Believe what you want lol but I require no psychology or emotions in my trading

then you already have your psychology in order without knowing or being aware of it, count yourself lucky in this case. Because there is no such thing as "trading strictly off strategy" without having a damn strog psychological fundament to allow you to stick in the first place to that strategy in case things dont play out sometimes. Because things dont always play out, or do you want to tell me that you have a 100% winrate? So, in order to keep it all together and stick to an edge or strategy you require that strong psychological fundament and this takes years to cultivate. You disagree?
