forex trading is a highly leveraged and risky business...

Although i do agree with some points in your opening article but recent releases about insider trading, Barclays fixing libor rates, HSBC scams and so on makes this the normal case of the small guys being wiped out.

There is nothing wrong aiming for 20 to 50% profit in a short period in a biz but most people have been wiped out by the manipulation of the market by the top guns and those at the helms of affairs which makes small time trading to be akin to GAMBLING. How do you expect people to succeed when the movement of the market clearly goes against all technical and fundamental analysis? Ain't it like throwing money into the "dark".

You may say, the insider trading is small compared to the volume of the trade but it is still significant to cause enough worries. I knew of many guys who had info of an imminent removal of the gag by the swiss authorities on the euro even before it was announced. They made a killing while a broker as big as (Liteforex or is it Alpari) went bankrupt taking huge sums of people's savings and investments down the drain.

My simple advice is for people who see this as their only means of livelihood to please desist from trading and just find other risk averse biz. You would lose your earnings. QED!

Wish you guys luck but that's the fact.
If you are not ready to take a calculated risk / control risk then you are not fit for forex market ...period

Calculated risks in a manipulated market? Good luck.

Whether we like it or not all I know is that the truth can not be changed..
It is either you choose to gamble or treat forex like a business by securing your capitaal as your first priority
I wish you good luck in anyone you choose to follow

You can choose a very low leverage if you want
I recommend leverage 1:5 ' and 1:10
Good luck

How do you define success? For some business leaders, success is defined by monetary rewards, while others say success is having a positive impact on others.

Most of the Forex traders including me have failed miserably because they have failed to approach the global market in a professional manner , i will be discussing the factors that have caused the failure and still leading more than 95% of traders that are not ready to follow the right path , the following describe some of the factors why most Forex traders are not successful :

Lack of trading plan : If a you does not have a trading plan you are planning to fall for anything your mind come across on the trading platform, which means you are only gambling in the financial market, majority of traders that fail fall in the category of not having a trading plan

Lack of Discipline : Discipline set in automatically when you are always sticking to your good trading plan, a trader without a trading plan has nothing to do with being disciplined . Most traders will not succeed because most of the orders they placed would not give them rest of mind because they are over trading which will eventually lead to FEAR , this kind of traders would be emotionally in-balanced because of GREED.

Taking High Risk/Not Having Good Money management : money management should be the first thing to consider if you have ever dream of becoming a successful trader , most traders chase the profit instead of controlling the risk, when you use a proper money management trading plan even when you are making some mistakes in the market you tend to have chances of correcting yourself till you are able to get to the right channel . Most of us get the wrong information of getting rich quick trading the Forex which led almost all the Nigeria traders to be failure in this business also virtually all the fund manager s failed to deliver to the investors as promised , the most painful part of it is that i still read on this platform where some so called traders / signal providers still pass the information that traders can get rich in few months with just little capital trading the Forex and also they tell us that we could make couple of pips daily without talking about the risk that is attached to it .

I urge all Nigeria traders to please approach the Forex market the way the professionals do it and also our Forex investors should invest wisely with the mindset of getting to know the amount of risk they are willing to take in terms of money , having it in mind that this is what they can afford to loose...Maximum drawdown should not exceed 5%

Another factor that kill Forex traders fast is aiming for unrealistic expectation , most traders gamble just because they want to get rich over night , we need to be wise by now , if it is really working out this way everybody should be rich today . When setting your goal as a trader or investor make sure you are not aiming for unrealistic expectation that will lead to taking some risk you can not afford to take as the fact remains that you will never win all your placed orders . When a trader or investor is aiming for 1% - 5% profit in a month thats realistic expectation , to my greatest surprise i still see some traders and investors aiming for 50% , 100% , 1000% profit in a month which are unrealistic expectation , i call it GAMBLING and this is the mistake we all made then ...

Thanks
Olubunmi Rashidat
