Helloooo! 
I’ve been reading through the posts here, and I just noticed that there are a lot of new people posting. Suuuper exciting! 
I think it’s nice that you’re comfortable here! And while I have you, I’m just curious. How different is your life today (that you trade forex) from your life before forex?
Hey Ria! You were like one of the first to welcome me to the community and you challenged me (helpfully) about my strategy. I was confused and excited to be trading and didn’t know quite how to answer. Trading has been like life; up and down. I know enough to know I know nothing. At this point, I’m trading on a 1h looking at 4h and daily for trends and 15 and 30m for entry. Using divergence and convergence…so much to say, but I never forgot you. But to answer, trading has gotten me off of social media so much, and watching charts and studying. Thanks for all you do!

It’s taught me discipline and the importance of continuous learning. How about you—any new interests or hobbies recently?

OMG HUHU I hope I didn’t say anything rude or anything like that?! 
I’m so sorry if I did. But I hope you’re liking it here.
I feel you. At one point, when I was starting out, I was so focused that I barely spent time on social media. But then I eventually got curious about Tiktok and I’ve been hooked since. 
Just curious though, do you consider this to be a good change or a bad one?
Hmm. 
No new hobbies and hobbies for me. 
But because of trading, I’ve overcome my fear of numbers. 
No, not at all! You inspired me. It made me realize what I didn’t/don’t know. Thanks
It’s a good change so far. Just starting to make not just the decision, but the action to get involved in the forum especially since baby pips gave so much for free. So yeah, on top of that, social media has changed for the worse… I am interested in tiktok but I think I’ll get hooked too 
Thank you for giving me peace of mind! 
Hahaha. The last thing I want to do is to offend anyone here or discourage you from being part of the community.

Don’t fall for it! HAHAHA Once you do, it’s a trap, I tell you. I’m basically living proof. I’ve said on countless posts how I always see these Tiktok videos that make me reflect on myself, my choices, and even my trading. I hope you’re not yet as hooked as I am. And I hope you’re trading’s going great!

Haha, I feel you. TikTok can really be a source of distraction and a rollercoaster of emotions! One moment you’re laughing at some animal videos, and the next, you’re unexpectedly caught up in someone’s heartfelt story.

Emotional management has been the biggest achievement for me since I started trading.

This is so trueeeeee -_-
My life has changed quite a bit since I started trading Forex.
Now, apart from trading hours, I also have to allocate time to read charts for trading ideas, which is more challenging than fixed office hours.
Of course, it’s not always easy, but the journey has been incredibly rewarding. How about you? How’s your experience been so far?

RIGHT?! When I see dog videos on there, I either giggle because of their cuteness, or cry my eyes out. That’s why I always read the comments for these types of videos before watching. So I can brace myself.
I think that does a good job capturing it. I can ever handle that pressure and stress so I probably won’t ever trade forex full-time. Hahaha.
I trade forex part-time. I know I won’t be able to survive if I solely rely on what I get from forex. It’s also been very challenging but fulfilling at the same time. If you don’t mind, how long have you been trading? Do you trade full-time?
I actually used to shy away from talking to different people and participating in forums. But since I started trading, or, let’s say, I started learning about trading, I’ve realized it’s actually fun to share and hear different opinions.

Not much difference. Just that trading up my game a little more.
