I’ve been treating trading and rebelsfunding more like a hobby than a serious income source, and honestly it’s made the whole experience much more enjoyable. When I first started, I was focused on quick profits and checking charts all the time, which just led to stress and bad decisions. Now I approach it like learning a skill. I read about markets, test small strategies, and track what works and what doesn’t. It feels similar to solving puzzles or playing strategy games. Sometimes I make a bit of profit, sometimes I lose, but either way I learn something. Keeping position sizes small also helps remove the pressure. For me, trading as a hobby is about curiosity, discipline, and gradual improvement rather than chasing money every single day.
