Hello all, these are just my thoughts and feelings...
Us newbies are on an emotional rollarcoaster, reading one hyped up thread can send us sky high with dreams and hope while one negative one can start a whole line of doubts in our heads.
Now I know that all the naysayers are actually the wise and the realistic highly experienced trader (including FXAnalytics) who are admired by all and I listen to them all.

But Out of ALL the negative threads I've read, this thread above started by FXAnalytics had DEVASTATING effects on me. On one hand I totally trusted and admire FXAnalytics as I could tell straight away that he is a huge guru with centuries of experience that I can NEVER achieve, on the other hand, all the knowledge, books, forums and time I've spent INSTANTLY went down the toilet. I was devastated. Where had I gone wrong? If trading was going to be more difficult then any other job on earth,if experienced trader were REALLY making only 2% or 3% a year on their money then what in the world was I thinking? Why not just back out now? I had gone from super happy and on top of the world, to depressed that I could never succeed at doing this for a living.
It's been a week now after reading that thread, and I have not TOUCHED the meta trader software, I'm just afraid of even firring it up, all the hope is gone in a BIG way, FXAnalytics wrote an excellent piece of work, but I just believed it SO much that quiting before even starting is starting to make sense to me.
I know we should hang in there, but after a HUGE blow like that, that there really is absolutely NO chance in this FX market and that all the good stories I've read were all just LIES and sugarcoated stories, really makes it hard to have hope left.
