salam, shallom, greetings for everyone. hope all of us in healthy and happy forever.

I start this thread absolutely is from my opinion and without aiming to argue. for everyone that do not in same opinion still invited to make comments. hopefully this thread can provide benefits to all of us.

title of this thread "trading is simple for a trader" is the main heart of my opinion on my journey. yes trading is simple for a trader. because of that the first step for someone to make a decision going into forex world and want payback from this forex is she/he must become a trader first. I realize that this forex is a professional field, equal to all others professional field. martial art person who already train his finger to tear the tree trunk will feel its simple to rip someone's neck. so in this forex world we must treat and do exactly and equally to become a trader. without doing and treated this forex world as equal to others professional field we will never achieve the goal.

it is a different thing want a money and want to be a trader. if we want a money than lot of other field can bring money too, but the law of success in other field still remain the same.

so we want to be a trader? then clear our mind and do all the things to do to become a trader.

lets learn, practise, and always learn.

salam, shallom

thanks my bro mozak.

first thing first is we must understand one important word, that is "trader". what is trader? who is trader? what he/she do?
this as something that may often be underestimated, but in my opinion all of our life is about decision making process.
and in that process who actually the driving force? its our think, our emotion, our perception etc.

something about this thread calls to me ... its rare for me to respond anymore ... the forum is ... frustrating... I like that your trying to figure who and what a trader is. what makes it a mystery is that everyone is a different style of trader but one thing stays constant. A trader is a person who can accept and research investment grade risk in return for a profit.

If you drive a car you're a driver, and if you trade, then you're a trader. What mistery? Problem is, the simple truth aint gonna pay your bills.

correctly and you must learn and train on driving a car, then take the exam for driving license,
then take a journey with your new beautiful car to everytype of road, from city to mountain type.

in my opinion, trader is someone who have a knowledge and skill about "value". because what we do actually is value exchanging, and a trader must have that
knowledge and skill.

an successfull cow trader for example must know about the value of cow relatively to some reference point, I think this bacic principle applied too to this currecy market.

I agree. Only one thing is not clear for me - when I can say that I'm a trader, because nobody gives me a "licence" as it happens with a driver.

luckily for us that have predecessor who already become a true trader which already walk on the road until finish. we can learn from them. how can them become a trader?
what they think? what they do? how they look into their "trade" etc.
I saw from your profile that you trade from indonesia, same as me. trader in bahasa is pedagang. if we want to be successful pedagang then we should learn to "pedagang". surely all the things must change with the time, but I think core principle or law of trader still same from centuries until now.

Yes, I totally agree. Many times, we are over-complicating things. We thought that our fanciful indicators will guide us to success. How do people in the old days trade? There was no chart, no nothing. Yet, some of them are very successful. Why? Once we spend some time thinking about this, we are on the road to become profitable. Keep it up, friend. Bagus...
Make everything as simple as possible, but not simpler.

Read your plain and simple thread - you are on the right track - you must love trading (the challenge etc...) aside from the monetary gain - must have a very strong desire to improve - a trader never gets there you are always getting there - if a trader does not learn something new every trading day ( no matter how small) then you must question ( why am I doing this - it must be like a relegion (so to speak) )

It's interesting thread. Forex just look like very simple, make money from the price market fluctuation. But it's very hard to become a true trader, it need a lot of time and efforts.
