Someone say forex is hard and someone say its easy. There are loser stories, there are easy winner stories.

In forum, you think you should do GBP but no. NEVER TOUCH GBP. Most losers are lost by touching GBP or JPY. Stick with EUR/USD. You might not earn enough money like others in forum but that is FOREX and that is your limit right now. You just cannot make more money than that. You will end up losing all your winning money. MAYBE NOT but..... If you think that way you will avoid that high risks. Just be-careful with forum guys who makes real easy money by clicking one mouse button and be-careful with GBP and JPY. (Includes GBP/USD USD/JPY EUR/JPY GBP/JPY so on................)

If you get THAT something, FOREX can be REAL easy. If you have the right informations and right tools you will start earning in just a week. It is that easy but it is so hard to get that TIP! especially from who got that TIP in a year or longer, they don't want to tell you their secret. Me? I got that info in 7 months. and I also don't want to tell my secrets either. I might got it that earlier but they don't let you get it so soon. Of course, you will have to study other forex stuffs as well.

I lost my point, but don't touch GBP, JPY like others in forum and lose all your money. That doesn't mean EUR/USD is easy for you beginners.

PS. My only job was forex for first half year and still is meaning that I sticked with forex most of my days for first half year.

Actually I trade the pairs you tell traders to avoid and I do very well with them.

You may want to state that you don't trade those pairs well instead of telling others that they won't be able to.

If your not doing so well, it is your system that your trading. If your looking for a good system to use, PM me and I will be glad to share mine. I can send you to a link that show my 12 winning trades in the past 6 hours. I have 27 winning trades this week and the trading day is not over yet.

Good Luck

Gotta second that second. The vast majority of all my profitable trades come from two of those "mad and reckless GBP and JPY" pairs, with about 50% of all profit coming from GBP/JPY, 30% from GPB/USD, and the remaining 20% between USD/CHF and USD/CAD. If you know what you're doing you could've easily walked away with over 1000 pips this week in combination between just GBP/USD and GBP/JPY trades. And I'm not talking about picking impeccable tops and bottoms.

They're definitely quite well tradable, like WHT said, you just have to have the right trading technique for those pairs. Part of why I love the two pairs so much is the massive volatility and daily range that seem to burn your fingers so much.

Come on people, It is obvious that English is not Cleannn’s mother tongue.

If you agree with his comments or not 4X forums are international.

How would you go on posting on a Russian or Greek forum?

GBP and JPY might be more volatile but you can make from ANY PAIR

1162 for the week for me, mostly from GBP/JPY with another 150+ sitting open on GBP/USD shorts right now. There is definitely good money to be made on GBP and JPY pairs. However, I do trade four pairs, so a solid ~400 of those pips come from USD/CHF and USD/CAD trades as well.

It's all in how you read the market and how you play your moves.

EDIT: Before people start screaming that I'm a heretic or a witch or full of snake oil or whatever; I will be the first to say that this was an atypical week for my trading style in that several new medium-term (I define that as one lasting within a month to a month and a half) have seemed to sprout up, thus letting me ride the roller coaster of pippage. I'm sure next week will not be near as wild, though hopefully still lucrative.

you know clean

you say after a year in forex you got this fact

really for you the most suitable fact is that

forex can be easy if you dont trade any pair

traders like you always fail cause they dont see their faults
they see themselves always right and see the market is the wrong side
