New to Forex and excited to learn!

Community Introduce Yourself
1

Hello,

My name is Hector and I am from Compton, CA and I was introduced to forex through Tik Tok. I’m looking to learn and maybe eventually be able to teach those around me when I learn and become a full time trader. The goal is to learn, show progress, and at the end be able to quit my job and become financially free. I am an operations supervisor and I’ve done it for 14 years now and I am wanting a change of scenery.

Thank you,

Hector S.

Are you prepared to spend another 14 years learning how to trade FX? Because that’s what it could take for any pro trader to become financially free.

In other words, treat FX as a business venture. It is NOT a get rich quick scheme, more a long hard slog to increase your capital. Rule of thumb, you’ll need at least US 50K to be able to maintain your current lifestyle. That’s the reality, not social media marketing ploys.

Welcome to the community, Hector. Just be patient as you go through the learning process. Good luck.

Some truths about forex trading. It requires good technical and mental skills. And it takes time to develop skills and be successful. There is no shortcuts. Make yourself mentally prepare and start learning.
