Hi everyone I’m 17 (18 late October) and am passionate to start trading. Have any of you guys traded before the age of 18? Could someone give me a quick outlook on the procedure to actually start trading in my situation?
Much appreciated
Personally I was 19 when I started so I can’t help ya with the experience aspect. The sooner you get started though the better, and you can at least expect a 2-3 year learning curve before you might be profitable, if not years longer. What exactly did you want to know?
I think the best thing for especially because of your age is to get yourself on a demo at the same time as going the baby pips school once you’ve done that and spent a few months on the demo by the time you reach 18 if you feel ready you should then open a live account. That’s at least one option for you

Agreed. Probably best to start off demoing and gaining the knowledge and skill.
It’s great that you’re starting young! Just take it easy and learn the ropes first before risking any real money, as skills and screen time might be your best investment in this endeavor at this point.

If it’s ok I’d like to ask the following questions:
Is forex enjoyable to learn and trade?
Through what sources can I learn the technique of a successful trader?
Is there any websites you recommend that could help a beginner like me learn some successful strategies?
Which demo accounts would you recommend
?
Thanks for the help everyone

There is no limit of age in trading but it is best to start trading when you are above 18 years.
