dont worry im not going to quit trading. if i sound paniced its because i just fell hard from a place where i was so excited and eager to get in the market. IMO these emotions can be dangerouse. im right now at a place where im more realistic and im going to take my time getting back into the market. i do focus on the bad where people give details about what is actually wrong (the fair negatives). the postives are easy to find and they mostly all you see. but you are definately right about the fact that a trader who fails is not because his broker is messing with them. if your bad, your bad, its just that with what i was talking about before you get taken out easier and faster.

anyways, im not a scapler or news trader. you are right. these are the most riskiest trading styles and everything that ive been talking about, compounds the risks. im just surprised that these are still viable methods of trading and i am very curiouse how the successful traders manage to trade like this and what they have to say about everything i brought forward. i was actually studying how to be a news trader but with all the noise i cant see how it would be possible for me. ill just stick with trading technicals for now. im a swing trader and maybe i might consider long term trading w/carry trading in the mix. that seems to be safest bet for me.

thanks for being the voice of reason though. you brought my confidence up a few notches.
