Name’s MJ, from U.S., midwestern state. I have little trading experience but just looked at the site and some vids earlier, made me a more informed trader to traditional market. Pretty cool. Joined because my uber driver recommended looking into it as a secondary form of income. I’m still poking around.
FX trading is a profit and loss venture, which means income AND expenditure, because you will suffer losses as does every trader on the planet - even your uber driver. If he was making serious income he wouldn’t be driving.
Welcome to BP good luck
Welcome MJ! 
That must have been a very interesting uber ride. 
With so many available side hustles, I wonder how you both got into discussing forex. Still, I’m happy that the recommendation brought you here! Have you tried reading the school? 
Welcome to the community, MJ. Hope you enjoy your stay here. Good luck on your fx trading journey.
