A very important thing that I realized is that you should always think about your decisions. Sometimes haste leads to negative results.
Agreed, if you're rushing then it's probably not a good trade.
If you can't spot the liquidity then you are the liquidity.
Honestly, for 5 years I have enough experience. It should be understood that during work this is quite enough to gain experience.

1) A broker is not that important. 90% of them are fine so use whatever one you are comfortable with.

3) Nobody can give you a ready-made strategy and then send you off to start making money, A strategy is something personal to you in terms of time, risk tolerance, psychology, speed of the market etc. Take bits from different sources and then take the time to formulate and test your own strategy that fits your own parameters. There is no “one-size fits all” in trading.
4) Trading of any type is NOT A GET RICH QUICK SCHEME! It takes time for the above reasons to first learn the basics and then formulate a strategy, test it thoroughly and implement it.
5) Set achievable goals – when you first start break even at the end of the month might be a great target for you and that is fine. Not losing long term is priority number one to protect your capital. Don’t compare your 1000hrs of practice to another person’s 10,000hrs. Be better than you were 6 months ago and focus on that.
What else have you all learned in your time trading?
Thanks for sharing your trading experience with us! Actually, this is why I am very much excited on this forum! There have so many useful members, who are willingly sharing valuable info as like you! That’s the power of Forum & forum community!
The things which I have learnt throughout my trading journey are how to keep patience, stay dedicated, focused and how to manage risks and capital efficiently.
croisssan posted:That’s true, I see a number of new traders try to gather huge amount of capital to trade in live account! Although, their trading skill isn’t up to the mark! Forex is a risky business where more than 90% traders are losers! So, don’t try to make quick money here!
To be honest, I learned a lot on the demo account. But after that I learned many more things that I always use in the process of work. As for me, the main thing is not to borrow for trading.
Number 4 is so important its not a get rich quick scheme contray to the IG fanfare gurus bloody leaches and charlatans

5 year trading journey is not a small journey and this time passes through several ups and downs. During this period, a person learns how to go ahead in Forex and get the merit of developing a strategy. Personally, I prefer moving average strategy.

Thats the key though there are so many ways to skin a cat and i think persistance and perseverance are the actual qualities you need to be successful in this industry
It’s not flashy or quick mate, like any profession or should I say business venture it comes with risk and hard work

Forex trading doesn’t only require trading skill rather it also requires some good human qualities like patience, perseverance and determination. When both are combined, trading success becomes easier for a trader. So, traders should devote to achieving success as early as possible.

I have learned a lot in all these years of trading forex, but the major highlights of my learnings would be money management, patience, rationality, and emotional control. Trading just doesn’t change your bank balance, but it changes you as a person.
