Many people enter the world of trading totally unprepared. Many do not even know the basics of what they are trading at all. Losing money for majority of these newcomers is the expected outcome. On the other hand, there are those who are really well prepared and understand that they are going into a battlefield against the best. These individuals if properly capitalized and really understand their weaknesses, they survive and keep making money all the way. Profitable trading is not really myth. It is a myth for those who are not well prepared.
