<p>I currently trade stocks and have created a trading strategy that has allowed me to make consistently market beating returns. I know most of you guys are going to think I am B.Sing but I spent no less then 1000+ hours over the last 3 years researching and learning about the market. I skip my lunches and study halls to trade or research stocks. I know if I write "day trading" on my application it will come of as cocky or not a just a resume padder. Do you guys have any idea how I can take my passion and knowledge about the stock market into a unique EC or hook?</p>
<p>There are other successful stock traders here at CC, so don’t worry about this looking “cocky”. Just include it as one of your activities. It is an uncommon EC, and it shows that you can dedicated yourself to a goal.</p>
<p>include it as part of your essay, or reference it in one of the smaller essays</p>
<p>The road to ruin is littered with those who have developed ‘consistent market beating strategies’. If you phrase it as such you will be perceived as a fool.
My advice is to express your passion for the market as a passion for economics and data.</p>
