DislikedSome people might think it's the insufficiency of technical knowledge, while some, fundamentals. When a person gets into a business venture, one would be likely to fall into the pit hole. Just like our financial market, what goes down, must come up? Very cliche and catchy eh? hehe. Greed, fear, ego and funny emotions are trivial, what is more important for a person to be successful is to be unsuccessful really hard, and take the road not taken. Solitude is important to read the market behavior, and in life generally.

95% of all the traders are loosers are a MYTH,
why? because ther is NO WAY! anyone could EVER!!! know that.
for anyone to be able to claim that, he got to have acess to every traders acounts in the world wich would be millions of traders so he or she could see how much they won and lost over the years. otherwice he can't possibly know that, it's impossible, thats pretty obvious, so how did this myth ever got into all the traders heads? I see it everywhere on internet, why is 95% of all the traders loosers? and what is wrong with them? YES!! THIS IS WHY 95% OF ALL THE TRADERS LOOSE!! and they give a reason BLA BLA, It is because of THIS and THAT, like they knew!!? it's all BS!! because one scummy MM broker said it in an interview that, if 95% of HIS clients didn't loose their acounts he would be supriced, and ofcourse! they where all probably re-quoted to death
and how many clients did he have? probably not over 100, so everyone STOP! it's all a lie,
trading IS profitable as long as you know what youre doing,
there is no way anyone could know for sure but all the traders in the world are not doing it because they are loosers they are doing it because they are winners or else they wouldn't do it.

WHY DON'T YOU USE SOME MORE CAPITALS AND EVEN LESS SIMPLE-REASONING SKILLS THAT OF WHICH MOST CHILDREN CAPABLY WIELD?
here's a clue for you as to how i am able to claim certain things : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain
if I want to write with capitals I WILL!
That page does not apply to your understanding,
if you go to the store and buy a bag of apples,
you take the bag from a big pile of hundres of bags,
when you get home you pic up the first 5 apples and they are rotten,
do you then draw the conclusion that 95% of all the apples in all the bags in the store
and in all the stores all over the world also are rotten?
can you tell this for sure?? well if you think you can I suggest you learn about math and probability

some people use a thing called common-sense. with this uncommon common-sense they are smart enough to realize that one bag of apples represents nothing....
but if you want to come on here and tell us that the x% statistic is bullshit and imply that it's just a broker chinese mind-game to mind-fuck retail traders as though it's a conspiracy then good luck to you. you only need to spend a little time reading the shit on this very forum, and then every other trading forum, to implicitly KNOW that retailers are losers on balance and will stay that way. you don't even need to spend time on trading forums. you just need to spend time listening to the population at large to know that they are nothing more than pending fertilizer that speaks and breeds, and trading is not an environment conducive to the profits of the weak-minded.
what part of any representation of the "x% lose" dogma suggests to you that this figure was derived from a small sample size? what is it about trading, and the people who trade, that suggests to you that most traders are actually profitable? who are the deep pockets that are paying for all of these winning traders with their charitable loses?
what bizarro world do you live in where these are the realities you glean information from?
according to you water is not wet because you haven't sampled every single drop in the world, or the rest of the universe.
stupid premise remains stupid.

Why? easy...most people think the same way, follow the crowd. We all see the same chart pattern and take the same position. When enough money is there for the taking the bank will go against the majority and take out their stops. Whether or not its with or against the trend doesn't matter.
When price is trending means a lot of money to be made in that direction. Sideways price action means no money anywhere so market is idling along collecting positions till one side becomes lopsided then it will break the other way.
For all that can't see that you are fools....To win you need to think where price looks like it wants to go and then do the opposite. Very difficult psychologically so thus we most must lose...

The main reason of course there is lack of understanding about market and its fundamental .
New traders loose there money mainly because of no money management .
Habit of not using stop loss and heavy trades with respect of the account size.
Also greed plays an important role in it

your money does not come from loosing traders, if you believe that you have no business trading, try to understand the reality rather than let others dictate it for you and use your brain,
Im not going to further discuss this with you because i can cleary see that you are not capable of understanding how the market and it's underlying value works.
my money does not come from losing (use the correct spelling, chump) traders? ok, so it comes from the brokers? it comes from the sky? it comes from magic?
either the majority are losers and they shift their accumulated small to large losses to the large profits of the few winners, or
medium losses change hands from medium amounts of losers to medium amounts of winners, or
LARGE losses by a few bad traders is shifted to the profits of the overwhelming majority who are winners (which sounds like your poor argument), or
LARGE losses by bucket-shop brokers are shifted to the profits of the overwhelming majority bucket-retailers who are winners....
take your pick. use a little common sense when you do so, though. muppet.
