I'm a retired business owner, trading stocks, options, and precious metals, for myself. I've been an active markets follower since I was a teen, with 'monopoly money' then and gradually growing my account to fairly good sized now. The past 5 years I've averaged about 450 trades. I follow 20-25 stocks, religiously, tend to be a 'contrarian', and I'm proud to say I've called every major move in precious metals since 1980.
