Hi
I have been backtesting different systems now for 3 years. I am not finding anything that works consistantly each year. Is it just me, or are others finding the same thing?
Is there really anyone out there making money from the forex? Or is it all just a myth? I don’t know l just dont’ want to give all this hard work up, to just go back to working for the rest of my life like all the other people out there in the world. I really thought l would find a profitable system by now. Why is it just so hard?
Just the thought of quitting is very scary indeed, but so is wasting all this time and energy of testing all these systems. I always test back for 20 years, and find that sometimes a system will do really well for 8 years in a row and then lose the 9th year. Which is no good. I get really excited that l have found something and then very dissapointed that it didn’t work again. It feels like an emotional rollercoaster rider, which is very draining.
Do you think looking for a system that works each year for 20 years is asking too much?
Anyone else here felt the same way. Any thoughts greatly appreciated.
