Actually, there are two sides to this; the good side and the bad side.
The bad side for me was the addiction
(i don't know how many people got addicted to the charts, I did though.), psychological trauma, emotional ordeal (being angry, sad, uninterested, irritated)Though these things are sad, I don't regret because it was part of the process.
Now, The good way trading has impacted my personal life, (I'm going to list them)
1. Trading helped instill discipline in me,
2. Trading helped me think of things in probabilities,
3. Trading helped me manage money better,
4. Trading helped me wake up early and plan my day better. (I had sessions to catch-up with
),5. Might sound funny but trading helped me become tidy ( I love clean charts and my lines drawn perfectly straight; I don't know if this is an OCD
),6. Trading has helped me in my relationship to be patient.
7. ...and lastly, trading has increased my bank account!
