This is my 5-year foreign exchange trading path, maybe you can learn from it

In 2011, I had unlimited scenery. After graduating for two years, I became the sales manager of Hangzhou District, an e-commerce sales company, with nearly 30 people under my jurisdiction. My annual salary was 300,000. I didn't rely on my family for a penny. I had a car and a house. I was proud and felt that I could do anything with ease.

Occasionally, my client said that he speculated in foreign exchange and lost 3 million a year. I only saw the opposite, "Someone must be able to make 3 million a year". The next day, Taobao bought "Advanced Foreign Exchange Trading", "K-Line Basic Tutorial", "Foreign Exchange Trading Trilogy", "Gold Crash", "Dow Theory", "Soros" in one go, read it all in one month, and kept repeating the absorption and understanding in the rest of the time. In the process, no one taught me, no one took me. But I already think I can become a minority in the principle of factor sparsity in this market. Why? Because I have never wanted to do anything in my life that I can't do. I am young and energetic and omnipotent.

In October 2011, the National Day return, deposit $5000, plan 5000 Bo 50,000, each order 0.5 hand, the first few orders earn all, feel that he is indeed a genius, born to do trading wizards.After one after another investment, two years, did not earn a penny, not only did not earn, but also the 300,000 accumulated in the work lost all, because it is day trading, the frequency is high, the result is not a month is profitable.

Like a spell, even if there is a little profit at a certain stage, but it can not exceed 1 month, and the result can be very stable back, if you pull out my capital graph, there are only two words to describe, that is "stable", not stable profit, but stable loss. And every day work perfunctory, began to look at the market, 13 years in September, left the company. In October, took out the 120,000 provident fund, into the 15,000 dollars. The rest of the living expenses, began full-time trading career.The trading level at that time was indeed very high, and the predictions were accurate, but they couldn't hold the order and were worried about gains and losses.I don't know how long this will last, but the daily routine is: get up, write a trading plan, look at the market, trade, eat, look at the market, write a trading summary. Take a walk at night, think, look at the market, trade. Loneliness, endless loneliness, the pride of all my life, I have the idea of starting to doubt life. Soon, the 15,000 dollars are gone.

During the period, I also went to Shanghai to find a trader's company, holding a two-month profit delivery order of $300. I found that almost all the replies were "you deposit, I will assess you". To put it bluntly, I became their customer. After looking for a lot, I finally gave up this idea.

Day by day, the account is still very stable and steady loss, if someone is secretly making orders with me during this period, it must be an excellent trader. I belong to the kind of either don't do it or do it best temper. Even at the time, I didn't think I could succeed. But I do face practical problems, I have no money, what should I do? I go to work part-time, go to block cars, go to real estate centers to pull people's heads, to help people sell insurance, what money to do, every time I make some money, I will enter $1,000, if less, $500, and trade there again.

Some people say I'm stubborn, some people say I'm persistent, but most people say I'm nervous. The good days were just thinking about the distant stories of Wall Street and the myth of getting rich overnight. Although the days were hard, there were at least two things that were always relieved:

My girlfriend is still there, and sometimes she helps me. Sometimes I'm so poor that I don't have any food to eat. When I get up in the morning, I often see a hundred or hundreds left on the table. I also feel very uncomfortable in my heart, but I see the truth in adversity. Love is stronger than gold, and love is more expensive than gold.

His dream of becoming a professional trader has not changed, and his path is becoming more and more stable.

Also the year before last, Hangzhou found a trader's job, starting from 10,000 dollars, I can be regarded as a competitive, at that time 100 trader assessment students, I officially joined the company's trader team with the first capital curve (profit is not the first). At first, I didn't think so ideal, only gave me 20,000 dollars to trade, I don't have to bear the loss, but the profit part is only 10%. I am a person who is afraid of losses, the first 2 years of losses I only learned one sentence: "Always ensure that the principal is not damaged, and trade lightly"So, as you can imagine, I don't make much profit in a month. At that time, I remember a quarter, I only made 13% profit, and my first quarter salary was only $260. The income of a professional trader is like this. There is no base salary, only 10-15% of the account profit is earned. Generally, it is the end of the year. If it is better, it will be closed once every six months. Along the way, it will increase from $20,000 to $50,000, to $100,000, to $300,000, and to $1 million now. I dare not say that I will definitely be able to earn a turnover in each account (although the $380,000 account I made last year doubled in less than a year),But it must be able to achieve reasonable risk control.

After 5 years, it can be considered a lack of effort. I don't know if everyone's perseverance will definitely lead to better results. At least people like us can understand it deeply. Here, while cheering for you, I also like myself.
