Thanks for your comments. I did not know everything beforehand and I did not considered every possible problems; otherwise, if things were considered too complicated to start, I might not have started the polling.
As you know, the result is presented as it is. So, I have no control over anything, and I cannot guarantee anything. The probable reason for the surprising result is only my best guess. Doesn't mean it is necessarily true. Whether the result or intrepretation are taken seriously or not, I have no control.

DislikedThat's true, but assuming the object of the poll is to give a realistic result of what's possible in forex, shouldn't unrealized P/L be included? If somebody doesn't close any of his losing trades, does that make him a better trader than one who does?
I guess it all comes down to what you're aiming to measure with the poll, and of course that's none of my business. All I'm saying is that when I see a result that might imply that 12.28% of the forex traders in the world make more than 50x as much money as they ever lose, it's difficult...Ignored
