I’m from the UK and currently live in Sri Lanka.
I started learning about trading in Jan 2023. I studied super intensely for a year and passed the FTMO challenge on my first time - it took me about four months to pass. Doing the challenge helped me to become much more disciplined but then after I passed, it sarted going downhill (I was a bit overexcited!!) I’ve taken a month off to cool down and just recently started again. Seems to be going well!
I leant to trade from YouTube and have not told my friends & family what I am doing, so I really don’t have any trading friends 
I’m super into the psychological side, I use meditation and other therapeutic techniques to stay focused in my decision making processes. It has also helped me to work with my past Trauma and addictions…Trading totally keeps me sober!! To be honest my priority has always been to keep my mind clean and stay healthy, rather than making profits (but naturally the profits also help, ha!!)
Anyway, I’d love to be part of a community, meet other likeminded people, and see what other traders are up to! Thanks for reading.
Best wishes,

emotions in trading are the biggest enemy, spread your knowledge here 
I’ve met a lot of people here whose lives were greatly impacted by forex, but I’m glad to see it has a good impact on yours too! 
) Does this also apply for your trading?
