群里前一阵有几位同修询问怎样才能够全职炒股,以股为生。
我简单的答案是:一般情况下都不要去尝试。
除了要有足够多的本金,业余炒手成为职业炒手是条很难很长的路。
炒股的动作很简单,就是 buy/hold/sell,
但做决定背后的功夫却不是那么能轻易练成。
这个有点像那个著名的修理电机的故事:
“用粉笔划线值1美元,知道在哪里划线值999美元”。
太多散户把炒股简化为"粉笔划线" :-),而不是去修炼“知道在哪里划”的功夫。
(我自己的那句玩笑话其实是在向前辈致敬:
Warren Buffett: “I Read S-1s Like Some Guys Read Playboy”)
大家知道牙医/律师都比较赚钱,但知道要上医学院/法学院要下的功夫吗?
有人会想不下足够的功夫直接变成牙医或律师去赚钱吗?
职业炒股 is no different!
The only difference is that "粉笔划线"太简单了 :-)
所以世界上有无数业余的散户,却几乎没有业余的牙医或律师。
下面是荐书里中外两位职业炒家的几段话。
Jesse Livermore: How To Trade in Stocks

......
The game of speculation is the most uniformly fascinating game in the world.
But it is not a game for the stupid, the
mentally lazy, the man of inferior emotional balance, or for the get rich
quick adventurer. They will die poor.
Over a long period of years I have rarely attended a dinner party including
strangers that someone did not sit down beside me
and after the usual pleasantries inquire:
"How can I make some money in the market?"
In my younger days I would go to considerable pains to explain all the
difficulties faced by the one who simply wishes to take quick and easy money
out of the market; or through courteous evasiveness I would work my way out
of the snare.
In later years my answer has been a blunt "I don't know."
It is difficult to exercise patience with such people. In the first place,
the inquiry is not a compliment to the man who has made a scientific study
of investment and speculation. It would be as fair for the layman to ask an
attorney or a surgeon:
"How can I make some quick money in law or surgery?"

在我这么多的经历中,没有一个行业比炒股为生更为艰难。
谁能在炒股行生存?我有不下十位朋友试图跟我学习专职炒股。不必看老板脸色
,不要定时上下班,不用在办公室尔虞我诈,想想看,炒股为生或说职业炒股是多么具
有吸引力!他们不是硕士便是博士,智力毋庸置疑。可惜的是毫无例外,他们在这行只
生存了几个月!在他们开始学股的初期,我总是将我的所知倾囊相告,因为这行其实根
本没有秘密,他们可以随时打电话给我,得到我的帮助。但他们都失败了,在股票学校
交了学费毕不了业。我常常想,这些绝顶聪明的朋友,有近乎学什么会什么的天分,在
这行为何无法生存?随着时间的推移和阅历的增加,我慢慢感悟这些聪明人失败的原因
大约有两个:
一、炒股的技能太活了;
二,他们太聪明,选择太多。炒股是有技术的。
上个世纪的美国著名炒家朱尔有句名言:“股票市场是有经验的人获得很多金钱
,有金钱的人获得很多经验的地方。”炒股的技术来自于经验的积累,这一积累过程是
艰难且痛苦的,那些懒惰的人,不愿动脑的人和只想快快发财的人在这行没有生存的空
间。
