Being a beginner is a mental state, not a chronological metric. The trader who stops learning, is rookie again, even if he has decades in this.

I would say that you stop being rookie when you no longer enter the market to �see what happens�. If you enter with a clear plan and accept the result, win or lose, you are already on another level.
There are those who think that to stop being a rookie is to make money. No. It is to stop committing nonsense such as moving the SL by impulse, overlaying yourself or copying signals without context.
My advice? Stop counting months and start counting lessons. If you didn�t learn something new this week, you�re stuck. Progress is not linear, it�s cumulative.
I have been 5 years and still feel like an eternal student of the market. I do not say it as a bad thing, but as an attitude. Perhaps the key is not to �stop being rookie�, but to learn to be a better one.
The question of how long it takes to stop being a �rookie� is very valid but also very it is very valid, but it is also very relative. In trading there are no diplomas or official graduations, so many get stuck in the initial stage without knowing it. For me, you stop being a newer when you go from just operating to managing a process. This means having a clear methodology, measuring your results, being able to self-evaluate yourself without drama, and above all, stop looking for external culprits when something goes wrong. As long as you continue to blame the market, the broker or the news for your losses, you are still in the beginning phase. Another clear sign is the emotional management.

This post should be framed and sent to every rookie who opens a real account.
Amazing the part about �stop looking for guilty�. It hurts, but it�s true.
That's where I realized I'm still a long way off.
Brilliant. Capital management was a lesson I learned with blood.
