I don't really understand the world of psychology like that, but I think it could happen...
I once tried to be a daily trader, when it failed my curiosity ended, because it hit me quite hard...
But I'm sure there are people who still persist even though it hurts... to call it addiction, I'm not sure it's because of addiction, because addiction is only for people who like an activity or object... and maybe only a few people are addicted to the headache of understanding the world of trading.
