Hey guys the name is Brixn, I’ve had the pleasure of slowly growing my knowledge about trading the market for the last couple of years and despite having gaps where I forget about it there has always been a force that brings me back and piques my interest.
My hopes in embarking on this journey is to maximize my income and minimize my time working and ultimately have the work-life balance I’ve always valued. I’m glad to be a part of this site and excited to see where it takes me!
You need to treat FX trading seriously to become successful. There’s no short cut. That means months, maybe years, of hard work learning specialist skills. Even then, there’s no guarantee you’ll make money.
That’s the reality.
Welcome this is not a make money quick
You have to put in lots of time and research
Hi Brixn!
Sounds like forex trading is calling to you since you always seem to come back to it. If you stay focused on it, I’m sure that you will excel at it. Good luck and don’t give up!
I’m well aware of this fact and if at all it motivates me more to know that most readers fail only due to lack of knowledge patience or a combination of both.
I’m determined to learn as much as I can and practice trading forex with intentions of consistent returns in the long run rather than large returns that aren’t guaranteed.
Most fail because they cannot handle the psychological emotions trading a live account. First aim is to become a competent trader. That involves knowing yourself inside out and how you react to the fear of losing and the fear of losing a winning trade.
Human traders will do anything to avoid pain, they will nurse losing trades, and they will cut winning ones - which result in overtrading, revenge trading and gambling when the market proves them wrong. There are ways to manage these emotional signals, and you will learn them going forward on this site.
