It is unfortunate that a lot of newbies are enticed to deposit. Promised if they buy this or that they will be millionaires soon, making the sellers rich and leaving the newbies with their dicks in their hands. I think I should also become a seller. I can make tons of $ from newbies.

It is human nature to believe getting rich fast. Newbies think that the market is an ATM, the only difference is that they fund the market, not withdraw from it.
Millionaires brag getting 20-25% yearly and average Joe wants 100% monthly. Who is the smart guy?

True dat! I am sure we all though fx will make us ridiculously rich someday when we started trading. It is only with a couple of times that one loses all your $ and a few margin calls that reality reels you back to earth again.
I would be very happy with only 4 or 5% per month. I am achieving this, but it is not as easy as one thinks.

Anton Kreil, ex Goldman trader said: A good trader is the one that on 12 months trading has to be profitable at least on 10. He must be right on the market on 10 months when he makes money and he must be right also on 2 months when he looses money.
I totally agree with you. Making 4-5% seem easy. But making 4-5% consistently for a long period of time, is pretty hard.

You are all correct on this. Making a fair 6% a month with a safe DD is very hard on long term. I have home built robots that can do 1-2% a month fairly safely, but anything above that, the risk of DD goes way up. 4% profits a month can give you DD of 40%. Very few of us wish to risk that kind of captial. WE all want and wish for larger profits and safer DD, but its very hard to obtain over a long term.

It not just 100 pips the trading lots has to go up as well.When the lots go up traders will come to emotional ceiling that they are not able to get over 100 is the ease part the hard part is closing the platfrom down and walking away after you have your 100 pips.
Dare to risk more to get more
