The volatility in forex market is very low. I am talking about 75 pips on average of high - low. Who wants to spend 10 hours for 20 pips? Forex will do for you.

20 pips daily on a consistent basis is way enough to earn a nice revenue.

Nobody.

At the moment, you're much better off trading something like the S&P.

Yes, it's not looking good. But we haven't reached the pre-COVID lows of 2020 just yet. All is not lost

That is okay... volatility isn't a constant phenomenon so to speak. It appears only if there is either a big demand on the asset or it's an opening of the market. Surely, if it's sessions' overlap, then it usually appears too. News impact it. It primarily depends on what pair you are used to trade and what time frame.
Major pairs are volatile enough, but again not all the time, so it's difficult to state that it's impossible to earn on forex because price change for 10 hours compises no more than 20-30 pips. Devise a better strategy, so you will be able to earn on level breakouts, for example, when the price hikes.
