Hello everyone
My name is Nuraddeen Haruna Musa an old trader but now new as i realised.
I gave been in forex for about 8 months now. As i said an old trader but now a new beginner (Novice Trader).
The first time i heard about forex is form one of my friend who told me that their is a #Gambling platform that he discovered and it will be profitable (we engaged in different types of gambling).
Telling me that within an hour or minute you could win big by just guessing whether a line (Line chart though i don’t even know what it means by that time).
We then open an account with one broker i won’t mention who but the beoker has their own trading platform where you could trade but binary (Fixed time trade) and forex. Minimum deposit is $100 after depositing we started live trading as demo account sounds stupid to us, why will i be gaining for someone else not me?? Hahhh before you know it with a single click after some minutes we gain some money with out even knowing what we are doing. it sounds good right? With few clicks $100 turns into $250 in my account. Thats how i continued gain and loose as i believed gambling comes with both, until i blew my account without withdrawing anything from the profit. I still deposited another $100 and blew it a gain till i blew it 7 times but not at the same time on one deposit i even managed to rise $394 from that $100 and still blew it. After expericing such losses I’m tired and never deposit again and even forget about that directioy predict gambling as we called it.
It’s during this quarantine period (#Stay at home) while am going through my bank statement i founded those transactions. Sitting at home doing nothing i then began to think of depositing another $100 and see of i can win!! Huuhhh
But before the i say let me search Google o e how to play this this. To my surprise i began to see what i didn’t expect new things.
The best part of it is that Babypips artickes appears multiple and also at the top of my search after going through the results i then filter the site that appears multiple times and it was babypips.
I won’t continue because i too was laughing at myself after reading few articles.

But one I’m a learning still learning to become a successful trader.
And lastly i thanks bibypips for showing me the righ patch.

Wow that’s some experience.

When you are done with babypips. Take a look at market structure and pick any system and demo trade for some months even a year the lessons you’ll learn from this are priceless.
Invest time to learn the market a solid 1 or 2 years of learning and profit will come.
Ask any questions on babypips there people always willing to help. God bless you.

You’re have a good, positive spirit, I like that. But you shouldn’t think that you’re just going to be a successful trader at one moment, that’s not true. You have to go to that every day, you have to make a constant effort to achieve that goal. It’s important not forget about it and not rely on luck all the time. Even to the luckiest people the sun stop shining sometimes. So count on your powers, skills and experience.
