have a wonderful day
Started trading using 15 currently im 23 and total time trader, I have no other job all I wanted is trading in my entire life, while others were partying I had been studying charts.
It took me quite a while to become consistent, in the beginning I attempted to considerably... to much battling, but trading is much similar to ing, its artwork, you need to be an artist and not a fighter for me what became really easy when I accepted that trading isnt about earning 10-100% each month, its about earning 0,5-3% each month and treating it as a real and serious business... you can decide if its a match, a casino or even a business its in your hand, and each real business requires a suitable capital to make a nice return, I dont expect a big return from 1k funds, thats not how it functions, at least for me.
At this stage I can say I'm consistently profitable, and I am earning enough to have the life I truly want at this stage but of course still there are a lot of dre I hope to fulfill in my life.
The day you'll begin making only 2-3 transactions per week. You will receive the time to learn from the errors and improve with every trade.
Market is shifting, so you need to adapt, improvise and implement. In short when you learn how to become patient. It can happen in a month and can not happen in a decade also.
Great. The largest advantage for you is your age. You are only 20 and have figured out profitable trading setups.Originally Posted by ;
If you are able to crack this FX market, I am sure the quality of your life will probably be great when compared to working in a 8-10 hour day time occupation.
I'm 27 years old, retraining itself for an auditing profession after doing shit work in a call centre and thats the biggest problem- I cant manage to sit at home and dedie itself for full time trading career right now.
I'm still in learning theme and I am sure if I can watch charts 10-12 hours a day for a year, I'll find the knack of good trading setups.
But I cant manage to sit at home for yet another year. . .so after finishing my course I have decided to pick up a full time job and keep training my thoughts.
Once I have got a trained mind, I will choose to shift to full time trading.
Trading is intense hard work.

It is individualy. Everything depends on you. The way you can analyze the situation, the amount of pairs, you use and you work with it. Everyone more success, more training. As for me personally, it took 1 year to become profitable trader.Originally Posted by ;
I have been trading forex for 1.5 decades and still wouldn't say I am consistently profitable, sometimes yes but I do not believe I have been trading long enough to say consistent.
I have attempted a Trading space, a private trading course with a mentor, another system based on swings, extended term trading short term trading, you name it I've done it. It doesn't exist although I had been on the hunt for the easy system. What this has done is give me learning time, from each encounter I have picked up a bit more knowledge. I believe this is trading takes a long time to grasp, it takes time to include all the pieces and have them become a part of our knowing.
At this time I am being very disciplined with my record keeping to ascertain my very best risk/reward ratio. This is one of the things that are most essential to think about when trying to work out how to be profitable. The risk/reward ratio is the only thing we can control when trading.
You might have a system that's 70% accurate but if your risk/reward is not right you may still lose money.
A 40% accurate system can make you profitable if your risk/reward is great, that's 2:1 or more.
