It doesn't matter if people see you as unemployed or not, what matters is the revenue you are getting from trading. If your trading income is worth making you to just stay at home and make your money without much struggle from 9-5 work, then it doesn't matter if other See's you as unemployed because they don't know what you are doing in your closet and you don't also have anything to prove to them, let them think what they want. Some people doesn't really know that in this era a lot of people are making millions of dollars just sitting in their personal office at their homes.
As somebody that's considered introvert, I always want people to see me as an "UNEMPLOYED" person. Why? TBH, I don't know, but it just satisfies me to see that those people who are saying that I am unemployed are earning way lesser than what I'm earning, and I'm doing it at our home while they're spending 8 hours earning minimum wage.

Am I bad if I think that way?

Anyway, I see traders as freelancers that are employed, but in a different way. While the most common is we have employers while the most common freelancers have clients, traders have nothing, but still, they're earning the same or sometimes even higher than other people out there. Like you said, let them think what they want because at the end of the day, they don't know what you're doing. The only time that you will show it to them is when you built something for yourself already like a house and lot, or a car as a fruit of your trading. Of course, I'm way too far from that dream of mine still.
