Well, I find motivation in the potential for financial independence and wealth creation. Some may be driven by the challenge and excitement of the market, enjoying the intellectual stimulation it provides. But I see forex trading as a means to diversify my income streams and achieve long term financial goals.

My main currency pairs are taken from AUS & EUR as key currencies, utilising other currencies like USD CAD and occasionally CHF as partners. I do not trade GBP, although many traders favour GBP/USD because similar patterns follow price action and movement depending on their economic strengthsā¦
hope that helps.

Image of Forex is not that bad, it is just viewed as being hard to get into. My one and only motivation is making some good money.
I"m a bit of gambling junky, and one day working for others was just not going to work. It was time I dedicated my life to achieving financial independence and literacy. Iām trying to sleep under silk sheets in a mansion in Italy.

No problem friend, Iām happy to help.
Over all Iād say that being a professional and profitable trader means that you are among the top 10%
So I set a goal, that I want to be that successful that means you need to be that intelligent, and to be honest intelligence motivates me. Anything that can add to my knowledge interests me. So now, I want to know about Forex before I just trade. Because I believe that trading without enough knowledge is just gambling, and it can be addictive and ruin you.

@Phonix, among so many strategy in forex, what strategy that interesting for you?
Currently, Iām studying fundamental analysis for trading Gold and trying to develop a news trading + scalping on Gold during the overlap of London and New York sessions, when market has high liquidity. But thatās not my long-term investment.
My main plan is actually working with an EA. Iām studying programming, and taking courses to reach a point where I can develop my own EA based on chart analysis. Although this might sound too far fetched, I must say, Iām not in a hurry.
Iāve seen cases where people with little to zero knowledge of Forex are making constant profits using only EAs and running those EAs 24/7 on a VPS.

I am motivated by the freedom and flexibility of this market where you can make money. Here you can determine when, how and where you trade and how much time to spend on it. But you need to learn how to analyze the market and choose a reliable broker with many years of positive work history.

I trade the major currency pairs because of my brokerās minimal spreads. And there is enough volatility here to make money by intraday trading on them.
