Life of a trader before the crisis?

Hello everyone,

I just want to ask this question because I plan to trade Forex for the years to come. I am just wondering, how was the Forex market before the years of 2008 crash?

More specifically:

1, Were the pairs volatile enough to make money from it, even without all these groundbreaking rates cutting and surprising reports, etc.?

2, Were the pairs more predictable before the crisis?

I really want to start my career as a Forex trader, and I want to do it for the decades to come.

Thanks!

I am sorry I have no idea about the past years. Check technical charts and you may find something useful. Also find avg pips range per pair before 2008 to get an idea on volatality.

But better if you can plan for future. Because past performance may not guarantee future results.
