assuming most on this forum are making enough $ to continue in FX for a long-time, so I humbly ask for your comments on whether this fits the profile for most people that succeed in FX:
Stage (approx time) what happens
1(2-8mos) learn fundamentals, trading plan, start with demo, then live account, small or negative account growth
(high drop-out in this stage due to disillusionment and/or loss of capital to the myriad of scams or bad trade performance)
2 (8mos+) explore other options to improve profitability
- get a mentor or do copy trading
- auto-trading (as a way to hone trade-plan and balance emotions/lighten work-load of manual trading
3 (2-15+yrs) find the right balance of auto/copy vs. manual trading to stay consistently profitable
bottom line:(does anyone use auto-trading as more than 10% of their total trading long-term? How important is it to have a peer group?
Disclaimer: I'm a newbie, near end of stage 1, have spent ~$2K on education/trade losses so far, entering stage 2

The trend is your friend, but beware, friends change!

Hi young4ever, I personally have never used a auto-trading system so I can't answer that question but about the peer group. It truly helps t have someone you can bounce ideas off and someone that can help you navigate the market. I've been trading for several years and I know how hard it can be when you first start but don't give up. Eventually it will all make sense and you will find yourself making money on a consistent basis.
Better to lose less then to make more

Hello youg4ever,
It is different with everyone. You cannot simply set a time frame and once the time passes to go on the next level. Successful trading begins when you reach your balance of risk tolerance, screen time / experience and this is something that for a person could take 2 years, for another 5 years, for third party - they never may reach the point to become successful. This is strongly depending from your personality, wiling to learn, to continue after fail and so on. :)
