The 90/90/90 standard

I'd like everyone's opinion on the 90/90/90 standard. I realized in laughter this morning that I was nearly a part of that 90%. (I think I lost 80% of my account in 60 days). In my honest opinion if you push yourself and survive those 90 days... you're in the clear.

I had been losing my account for about a year then switched to a demo for a few years and I think that the figure of traders that consistently make big enough profits to live on every month is around 0,1 %.

No, I'm saying if you push yourself and don't quit after losing 90% of your account in 90 days you'll make it.

Of course, I could be bias. I worked part-time 20-30 hours a week for that time and spent roughly 100 hours a week on Forex. So I probably expedited the process a bit.

Usually, the exception just confirms the rule. And if someone is part of those 90% ,then he/she definitely should take the time and decide If they want to rebuild their strategy and continue or call it a day and quit for good.
