{quote} The most annoying part is that I can, actually, grow an account in that manner - but on demo. When I try it on a live account what you and I both describe happens like clockwork.

Listen to me carefully because I know exactly why this happens.
It's because we like action, we don't really care about making money. I mean, do you really want to make money off trading ? ask yourself, I bet your answer will b "no". who cares about money, the important is to have fun.

trading is not black and white, eg. serious trading vs pure gambling.

What I do right now is a half way, I call it "tradingambling". high risk betting with a statistical edge.

No doubt trading is hard but we all love it, we give time to it and discuss the things here. Nothing comes easy. And in trading we need lots of patience, we should have strategies and understanding of the market.

Yes, it is true that trading is hard yet most people like it. Actually it becomes addiction. There are traders who trade everyday no matter if they are losing consistently. Some of them try to study more and increase their knowledge and experience. But most of them keep doing the same and eventually exit the market.

Yup this trading is hard, way harder then other business (if u treat this forex as business) . But then iam enjoying my life as a forex trader rather then thinking to get rich quick . I see u do some scalping here . Not bad , u still have some luck there but then u need to do some work with ur money management , set how much pip tp and sl , how much u need to trade per day , set how much pair that u should trade and etc . Playing around with this might gonna help ur trade skill. iam not profesional trader nor a good trader but iam learning from my mistake every day .

cheers .

Making consistent profit is the troublesome part. For that you require extraordinary knowledge, skills and experience. You can't expect to make money just by entering into the market. You have to give time to learn the strength of trading. The twist of forex market is people like it even if they are constantly losing money. So It's better to focus on spending time on learning and researching.

There is no disbelief that trading is hard. Day by day trading is becoming trickier. But with proper analytical approach a forex trader can ensure a comfortable trading journey to some extent. But random trading decisions should be avoided. Rather traders should try to analyze each aspect before investing his hard earned money. And technical or fundamental analysis or both can be used to analyze the future market behaviors to a great extent.

Simple thing doesn’t bring good money, otherwise we would not have poor people at all: ) However it is only the matter of your skills and persistence. In one year most of the “difficult” things will look like a joke to you. But there is always a space to grow.

Not everyone can make it in this business imho. Also if your screen time and practice is not focused on specific skills and strategies such screen time and practice would be futile. Trade safe and prosper. KP {quote}
True, a lot of people quit at some point, but then again the market is in constant flux - there are always newbies willing to join and learn.

Yes, trading is a business that requires a lot of effort from you, but how strong the result can be, even if you started with a nominally small amount or came with little knowledge but did not stop there and continued to study the market and its patterns. In my opinion, the main thing is not to disperse your attention and try to create an investment portfolio with which you will be working in the near future. I personally update it about once a month, sometimes something changes and I add other assets, especially if there was some strong event that radically changed the entire market situation. Although many of my friends use everything for trading and it brings them money too. But I am more in favor of an orderly approach, then you have a chance to work quietly without fuss, but at the same time profitable.
