Just getting started

I am new to the Forex world and looking to gain lots of knowledge from this site. I have been intrigued by the Forex market for some time now, but I think now is the time for me to really get serious about Forex and learn the ins and outs. Any and all advice will be welcomed. I look forwarding to learning Forex and hopefully creating some exciting and dynamic networking opportunities along the way.

Hi Eric!
Big brother here, (baby in forex though).
I want to welcome you to a great place to learn about the forex market. In here you will find serious people, from wanting to learn how it all works, up to those with years of experience. You will find many different groups, from the scalpers (short term traders) up to the fundamentalists (long term traders). These are all different methods of trading, but you need to know how the market flows. Most of that knowledge you will find in the price action trading groups. Some things you just can’t deny about how it all works.
So my suggestion is to read as much as possible around here and find out what kind of trader you are. Jump into a group. Try out a method and find what works for you. Take lots of notes. Start swimming and experience the journey. You will fall many many times. But one thing that I have learned is that you need people around you along the way, to pick you up and encourage you to keep going. This is a very difficult thing to become successful at.
Find a good group. If this is your thing, you can go far no matter what happens. Experience will teach you. And that will take time.

Ignore most of what you read.

Pull up a chart, lock yourself in a dark room, and study it for a year or two. Ultimately you’ll have to figure things out yourself in this business.
