Hi guys Im a newbie...hope you are winning and willing to share your tips with us newbies...Do you recommend still doing 9-5
 
In start it is preferably recommended to start in your part time while doing some primary job 9-5 because forex or trading is not as easy as it is being taught by the five minutes influencers online. It requires a lot of learning to develop the skills and practice them before you can leave your jobs and move in to trading permanently.

odds are you will have your answer in the first few months.....

it's nice comfort knowing bills will be paid, so keeping a job could be a positive......

my only suggestion would be to get a 7 to 7 job...... 6 days a week.....

trading can be expensive......h

Naah...not that old. It must be an error. You might find that you are actually much older than me

Just download a demo account from any reputed broker and keep practice it till you succeed. Moreover, there are many seniors in this community can help you out. You just write here and someone can advise accordingly. Cheers!

Totally agree with this, most people underestimate how long it actually takes to get consistently profitable. Treating it like a side project first while you still have income coming in is honestly the smartest move. The influencers make it look like you can flip $500 into a fortune in a week but the reality is it takes years of screen time and blown accounts before things start clicking.
 
There’s no hack for pattern recognition. You need to see EURUSD fake out NY open 200 times before your brain stops chasing it. You need to feel the pain of moving a stop 3 times and watching it hit anyway. That’s 10,000s' hour stuff. Influencers skip that part because “here’s year 4 of grinding” doesn’t get views.
