The problem with Forex trading is that it is so easy to start, and the dream is sold of how easy it is to make money in these markets. Sadly this is not the case, and from the figures I read, between 90% and 95% of new traders lose all thier money with the first few days or weeks. The two main reasons are firstly underfunding, and secondly over leveraging. Professional currency traders only use a maximum of 1:25 or 1:50, and yet some of the brokers offer suicidle leverage of up to 1:400, which is criminal in my view. Until the market becomes regulated then sadly many more will be sucked into trading, with no knowledge and insufficient money. It is possible to succeed, but it takes time, efort, lots of reading and a great deal of practice. As somone who has done it and survived I had to leanr the hard way, by making all the mistakes and losing money - my own sites try to help new traders with free advice and guidance, so that hopefully they can learn from someone who has been there and done it!
