Tired of Seeing Negative Threads

Sometimes it becomes very annoying with all this demonic, negative thread how making money in Forex is Impossible, nobody has done it bla bla bla, big banks does this, broker does that...... that's why is impossible to make money. Your say making money in Forex is impossible then what are you still doing in forums such as this? what are you still doing in thread that talks about good trading system?
shouldn't you be going some place to do some other things? if you feel making money in Forex is impossible then keep it to yourself nobody wants to know and care at least not me, People like me knows making money anywhere is hard but not impossible,.
Acquire the proper knowledge and succeed in that field. Before saying anything about how impossible it is to succeed i want you take notice of the fact that even a baby of 2 months happens to take a positive wire and joins to a negative wire it's going to spark even when he/she does not know what he/she is doing but when adults who is suppose to know does not know and goes ahead to join two negative wires together he/she is not going to any sparks just because he is an adult. Apply the right things and get the right result. Thank you. Please if your also tired reading those kind of post too then please make your point.

I wont say making money in forex is impossible. I will say it's highly improbable, and even when you do it is unlikely to continue. I believe it's one of the toughest task you might undertake, personally I wont recommend it to anyone. But the reason people stay even when they know the odds is simply because they are hooked. Just like lottery players, sports betting or horse racing. Some of them have sacrificed alot of money, time and effort which they are unwilling to relinquish. It's easier to think that you just need to get better than to accept the fact that the game is unbeatable and you've been taken for a ride.

I think its impossible for over 99% of so called traders to make a consistent income out of the markets. Maybe 10 in 10000 can do it and again there is a case of whether its chance or skill. If you get 10000 people flipping coins 10 of them will end up with alot of money.

My take is that those few who succeed do three things right.

- Avoid trading against the flow.

- Avoid getting emotionally involved with the markets.

- cutting losses and letting winners ride.

Sounds cliche, yet most here are unable to do.

80%-90% of all traders lose. This is not "negative", it is simply the fact. Just because you are not among the 80%-90% of losers, does not change the fact that 80%-90% of all traders lose.

So here's the rub, While positivity and belief are important, it stands to reason that 80%-90% of all threads (posts and threads are interchangeable here) on Forex Factory would be "negative" or started by losing traders. Moreover, I submit, that if 80%-90% of all threads/posts were "positive" or started by winners, Forex Factory would be considered a "shill site" for the Forex industry.

Don't get me wrong, I too tire of all the "Forex is a scam" talk, but it is necessary. I'm sure if you went to the Amway forum back in the day, all the threads/posts were positive and everyone was making money. Well, we know what happened there................

I never see anyone searching for the money source...

Who are those guys who do legally print all the money?

How do the US nation happen so, they owe those folks 80 or 120 trillions, or whatever?

Are you really all that much of a stupid?

Or it is just me?

Find that information and we will talk positiveness after that...

Where does the 80-90% of all traders lose come from? How is that stat calculated?

I say wining 100 percent of the time is impossible that's why that word ''NET PROFITS'' in existence but at the end you should be in profit depending on what ever your own end is. Just like any other aspect in this world is left for us or anyone who cares to see how he can be among the few who succeeds. In every other areas or field is always the 1 percent who succeeds.
---- Check around in football, acting, music, lawyers,etc. even in the world it is 1 percent who controls the wealth of the entire world so why should it be easy in Forex? ----- Think about what will happen if the wealth from Forex was handed over to every trader who trades,
------ if every one was to pick diamonds and golds by just walking on the streets, what do you think will happen to mother earth if every one was to be Rich or poor. So the think here is that one must choose what he wants, the group he wants to belong, you won't get it on silver platter but is very possible and doable.

people find it difficult because they are addicted to thinking, once you have your edge there is little to think about

Succeeding in Forex trading in terms of making consistent profit is not impossible but it is tough. It takes a lot of discipline and trading differently from the majority of traders.

Ignored

These are the things we need to hear "is not impossible but it is tough" Thank you

Yes, your right Sir

I don't see any "negative" threads .. perhaps some healthy discussions on rare occasions
But what I see however, is that everyone seem to be making money in retail forex and there are very few posts / threads about losing ..
It's an issue because at least 90% retail forex traders will lose money eventually.
So, where are they ?
Imagine the frustration of your average retail forex trader (i.e. loser) who just can't understand how others are making so much money but not him! ...
In order to reflect the true nature of retail forex trading, there should be a very high percentage of negative threads, but the opposite is the case.
The map shows "win", but the territory shows "lose"

as you see, the most active threads are full of negativity.

A good businessman knows that bad press is better than no press.. if it's difficult to prove anything.

be thankful to these ppl lol

Yes, thats all am trying to say, we know trading forex is partly about psychology and all am trying to do is protect myself from any one that will want to tell me i can't make it co's he can't make it. I know i have to think right so i can learn right to be among the few who are successful.
I WILL LOVE TO RECOMMEND EVERYONE TO GO READ THE SCIENCE OF GETTING RICH and if you have any you can recommend for positive mindset and i can do spirit then PLEASE RECOMMEND.

this forum would not be so popular.


they're traffic generators. most ppl come here to read the claims and some click the banner$... which is healthy for the industry.

question is , are they paid by brokers ? I don't think so.

Oh they also generate stress and make ppl lose.

you don't have to think positively or negatively.
you just have to think realistically.

Exactly they generate stress, fear, losing mindset even before one begins trading but all the same i see your point. We need them on the other hand

some provocation is needed to motivate people to post. I like this community so it's in my interest to support it.

I know it's difficult to accept negativity in the beginning, however I learned to not react when something bothers me, which really helped me to achieve more happiness.

You understand the fact that most people face a number of setbacks in this business that have an adverse impact on their attitude towards this business. After all, no one wants to admit that he is guilty or has made any mistakes. Most people blame the situation, say that the market is impossible to predict, they use large sums of money and bravely risk them, not realizing that in this business the incredible importance of strategy, capital calculation, analysis of their work and work on mistakes. Probably that is why we often see the negative. On the other hand, there are a lot of discussions among people who are burning this business, and it's good to realize that trading is reaching a new level every day.
