Where it all started...

It's 2017.....

So I'm here having left my job, very confident that I am now a full time Forex Trader. If anyone would have tried to convince me how little I knew then, I'd probably have considered them an enemy of progress.

My sister had promised to give me as much information as she could, since she had been a trader for quite some time. She was also doing so well, well enough to convince me it was the way to go. So here I am with my 2 years worth of savings, and very confident that I can grow them to about $10,000. I know..I know...relax.

So I take my sister's signals for a few days, then I get that urge to learn more. The first big mistake is I refused to listen to her when she insisted that I should use a Demo account for a couple of months, before going live. So here I am, learning something new, and doing a trial and error with real money. In about a month, I had already lost $3560 .

The thing about me is it takes more than that figure to give up. The only problem was I hadn't really grasped what went wrong so I still ended up losing more money.

The story is far long from the end....
