I definitely wouldn't call Forex a get rich quick scheme by any means. However, after growing your account for long enough, trading 20 or 30 lots will start adding up if your strategy is sound.
May be. But I personally don't feel like using robots for the trading, as the control goes in their hands, I like to keep the power of trading in my hands, thus I prefer trading manually.
The forex market has so many robots which are free to work for you and sometimes they also earned to you. But the fact is, depending on robot for your money is not safe. One day that robot is going to fail as a market is not predictable and robots are a just written program.
Of course and that is the main reason, why I prefer manual Trading, as the Forex Robots, grab control from our hands and I prefer to have control of my trades in my hands.
Forex is risky work, if we can not control our trading then how we can expect that a robot, a written program is going to earn us money and going to give us a profit for nothing.
Definitely, a Forex Robot, is not a dependable one to survive in Forex Trading. We need to obtain skills so that we could trade manually and achieve success.
First of all, I recommend looking at forex like a game, or a hobbie, and not as a way of making money. If you try to chase after money, you'll make lots of mistakes. When you learn to trade well, then you can relate to forex as a source of income.
But it would be exactly like gambling. People who come here to play, don't live long on the market because of attitude.
Of course, you cannot survive for long if you take Forex as a Gamble, you may win one or two trade with your luck, but cannot never survive for long.
