Hey everyone,

I'm sure there are varying levels of experience here when it comes to trading. Some of us have been trading for years, while others are just starting out, I'd like to get everyone's take on how long they have been trading & how they think experience helps traders(if at all).

So here's the question, how long have you been trading Forex & what role do you think experience plays in trading?

Thanks in advance for your response!
I have been trading for 10+ years. I am still not a full time trader though. I trade part time and I am happy with the return. I do not take much risk. I do not have that much investment either. However, I have a plan to be a full time trader once I get very consistent.

I have also completed 10 years of trading in the forex markets as a part time trader :)

It’s been around 3 years since I started to trade forex. The most important lesson I learnt was never to try to rush things. Your strategies take time to show results and you better stick to them until you have tried every possibility in the market.

I started off as a forex trader when covid started. I didn’t understand a thing when I was a beginner. I even thought that all that I read about forex was a lie. But now that I have started making money, I have realised that my patience and disciplined approach helped me stay in the market for so long.

You need experience to trade and you need to trade to gain experience. There’s no way out. It’s up to you to decide what you can do to survive in the market.

Understanding the complex nature of the forex market is very important for a trader seeking long term success. It takes time, experience and with every trade made, traders learn.
