forex trading is for pros with lots of eepcrienxe and deep pockets.98% of all new traders, even in easier lines such as trading stocks, lose some, all, or more than all of their capital within the first two years according to one psychologist who has studied traders and trading for over 25 years.this effect is so reliable that forex is one of the areas in which bucket shops still exist. A bucket shop is one that acknowledges your trade and then throws the chit for it into the bucket they never actually have the orders filled because they know that the odds of you winning in the long run are 1 in 50. if they're patient and keep good records, they'll almost certainly end up with your money. And, by not having executed the actual trades, they pocketed all the execution fees [which, btw, you paid]. [Sure ... they occasionally lose a bit -- but with 49 guys paying them for each one who takes some home, they can afford it.]
