{quote} True. This is something I struggled with as a newbie too - there was so much available information and I had no idea which was useful and which wasn't.
i suggest you to watch no nonsense forex.com videos.
trading is not easy,many newbies jump into scalping ,i also did when i was new.i dont trade any time frame below 4 HTF.it takes 2-5 years to get an edge in trading.

Yes trading is very hard! it takes time and patience to do it. i'm still learning now! after a year and a half. you can't get emotional with trading. and you SHOULD ONLY EVER TRADE WITH WHAT YOU CAN AFFORD TO LOSE! reason i put that in capitals is because that's very important and new traders forget and put in all there savings and if they lose is they get very emotional and blame it on the traders supplying them the trades!

Is it worth it? i would say yes you just cant expect and quick turn around you need to build your account up slowly and you will be on your way to great success at trading. Hope this helped you!

From the looks.of it, i would say that we should all stay away from trading. To think that not one person has gain ed a n army of.followers from trading forex.
To shag or not to shag that is the question. #Me

Trading is not hard. If others can make it big in the Forex market, so can you. Don't waste so much of your time in struggling with technical stuff. Understand the principles, basic fundamentals of the trade, settle on a strategy and stick to it. It's also not as easy as it sounds, but it is not impossible.

Yes, it’s not impossible but obviously, it’s not easy to understand the relation between fundamental news & market movements! So, you are trading only based on the fundamental trading, isn’t?

Trading is not that much hard. It completely depends upon how you trade. Trading is easy but trading efficiently is actually a difficult task. There are many things to be kept in consideration before placing a trade. Profit and losses completely depends on your trading styles and strategies. You should keep a strong eye on market conditions, its liquidity and volatility. We must always trade with the broker who provide the tight spreads with no re-quotes. Everything is achievable and so is forex trading.

Hello Miath; can you please explain more on how trading can be easy? Here; only 10% traders are making regular money; why? By the way, my opinion is; trading is not easy; never & ever.

Trading is easy when you use a consitent and effective trading system and consistently trade with its rules. However, the most difficult thing in trading is to reach this level of trading skills.

The secret to success in forex trading is keeping things simple. Forex trading is not easy, if I say so, I'd be lying. But again, it is not as complex as many people make it to appear. In fact, you can comfortable make money if only you have the patience to learn

Forex trading is not simple, neither is it difficult. It all depends on why you trade and how you trade. If you trade for money, you need as much patience as possible before you can start making profits and considering trading as being simple. If your strategy is poor, you'll definitely lose and consider it as being tough

its the main challenge when having a losses , generally after having a losses from trade we become emotional and trade over and over , we lost our motive and mind , as a result become loser. its more appropriate to become cool when having a loss and stop trading for a while.

How long you traded that specific strategy on your demo account..! i believe that the demo account have more virtual balance and leverage so if the trade went bad you have ample balances to cover it however in real account you are trading with specific resources where the chances can be of getting margin call. So choose a demo account with the amount which you are in actual trying to invest in real account and then see the results.
