I am from the netherlands and currently in a gap year, working full time. I found that full time working is not wat i like/want. So i searched for other ways to make some money. And i found forex!
The ultimate goal is to earn full salary trough forex day trading. But for now i am an absolute newbie. I’d like to learn everything about forex and thats wy i am here.
welcome to the forum. Your goal is good but keep in mind that it will not come easy.
You said you’re in a full-time job - is it an on-site/physical type of job? If yes I recommend switching to another job where you can work with your computer, preferably from home. That way you can have two screens - one for trading/learning and another for your work.
If you dedicate time for trading only after work then your progress will be slower than you expected and there’s a chance you will give up at some point.
Therefore, take it seriously, treat it as a business and most importantly - seek real, professional education about how the forex market works.
Whoever’s thoughts/ideas/strategies you’re reading - always ask yourself: is this guy an actual professional, consistently profitable trader or is he hiding behind the trees and most likely doesn’t have a clue about how to trade the FX market?
Always think rationally because this industry is full of scams. Wish you all the best.
