You are not alone, 95 % retail traders loss. Loss another $10,000 in couple of years, and you will start making profit :)
The reason why people lose is they don't open a practice account. Practice until you have months of profit and then start slow. Allot of people don't have the discipline to wait before they get good or they use robots
I agree, you need to do practice on demo.
And there are not so many loss traders.
Some time ago i saw article at 'forexlive' they published actual statistics.

Depends..
Are you trading Smaller Time Frames or Larger Time Frames?
Are you using Indicators or Candlestick Patterns?
If you are using smaller time frames, it is going to be a much harder challenge to be profitable consistently. Lots of volatility, small trading ranges and short hours in the Day-makes it really challenging.
Larger Time Frames are more stable and give more reliable signals especially based on Candlestick Patterns.
Spent 6 years Day Trading, lost it all. Switched to Swing Trading on the Daily and 4 Hour, never looking back.
Its early days on my Live Account but I am up 13.0% from just 7 trades, with almost 400 Pips made in the last 6 trades. (The Demo Account here tracks my Live Dukascopy Account but is behind by 3 trades
https://www.myfxbook.com/members/DRFXTRADING/duane/1079693). All things equal, I would only need 9 trades for 100% return.
Trades are not as frequent but when they appear, they more than compensate for the wait, giving you profitability with half the effort and twice the reward.

remmeber guys, the only people who get rich from scalping or trading the daily noise is your broker... who gets a commission on each trade..

Losing is the best way to learn trading IMHO. There's no such online lessons or something like your own experience

Absolutely! Stay positive! I just lost my account again, and I am on track to lose over $500k since I started forex in 2008.
Great stuff! Fantastic really! Forex is the best investment there is!
I can teach you to trade like me but it will cost you a lot of money (and I don't mean tutoring costs).

You can't win in forex. Anyone that thinks you can make a living or retire from forex trading is a fool. The only winners in the forex game are brokers and banks.
Why do you think that everyone still avoids forex trading after over ten years forex retail?
The risk disclaimer is a legal loophole to permit downright theft.

Because I am a fool.
Because I want to prove a point.
Because I have no real purpose to my life.
What about you? A good question that every retail trader should ask themselves.

I think you can win in trading, the reason most lose is that they are way under capitalized.
if you trade a higher time frame and use proper money management then you will make money...
the reason most dont do that, is because most only have an average of 1,000 in the account and to make 2% a month is not worth the effort.. typically most people are trying to make 100% a month every month as their expense are so high, and then you wonder why most lose.
but if you had 1million, and traded trying to just make 2-4% a month , you would make enough to make it worth your time.
