DislikedI think when you find a strategy that works, and you consistently trade it, you will be confident in it. A strategy that works for me, may not work for you, and visa versa. Every man to his own.Ignored

DislikedI've been learning and practicing trading (forex) on demo account for 3 or maybe 4 years now and still I'm not able to trade profitably, and I've tried many different strategies. What is wrong with me? I'm not stupid. I graduated. Is it because something's wrong with my trading psychology? I think so. I'm very impulsive trader - many times I just feel that I need to trade, the price is moving, so many others trade - what am I waiting for? I know it's wrong and I need to be more disciplined.Ignored
Dislikedand you are excellent in searching out threads which got their last post 3 years ago.Ignored
DislikedThe market doesn't care about your emotions at all so it can't be because of you. Have you considered that the forex market is simply too random to make consistent profits from it? What makes you so special that you would be able to outperform all the quants in the world, who have the best tools and strategies available?..
I switched from manual trading to automated trading and made my own strategies. For 2 years straight I tried to exploit market statistics only to find that nothing worked. So I had to come to the hard choice: to stop if I can't...Ignored

DislikedSeems like you didn't try hard enough. There are some basic strategies that give you at least 50% a year. The difference between us and the quants is that they have to deal with billions of dollars and have a liquidity problem with most strategies. This is our advantage.Ignored

DislikedI tried everything I could. Isn't that enough? If what I've learned tells me that forex is basically random, should I just ignore that?Ignored
Disliked50% a year, every year? Good for you, but I won't trust any strategy before I know WHY it works and I can verify the results.Ignored
DislikedI don't know why some people insist in developing a plan... That will not make him profitable.
He can take any plan from the threads here and that does not mean he will be profitable, he will STILL be part of the 95%.
So, I really wonder why some people repeat and think alike about developing a plan, like its something you have inserted in your mind. Really wondering about these kind of things in forums, when many different accounts answer with the same response. Or maybe 1 guy says something and then the other read and paste the same answer?...Ignored
