ABOUT FOREX TRADING
I wrote this to introduce you to the Forex trading
culture, the motivating factors, and many of the
pitfalls that are avoidable. It is my further intent
to caution you that impatience and wishful
thinking are everywhere in this market. This
happens frequently when opportunity is
perceived to be innovative. Even the most
intelligent are led astray, thinking that somehow,
this new thing changes the rules. The rules
never change.

things to look out for you, but its not what you
need to know, as I explain in Forex Art of War.
Ultimately, I believe that if you are presented with
the freedom to make a choice, and you are
warned about the danger, it is your responsibility
to look out for yourself. In business we call this
due diligence.
If the brokers make their money primarily from
new, unskilled traders, what are they going to
do? They are going to do what any business
does. They are going to target those potential
clients. So they are in the business of supplying
you the tools to trade with, but they make most of
their money from the new, unskilled traders. If
you pause and think about it for a moment, they
cannot be in the training business. If they were
in the training business, they would need to
focus, as part of that business on protecting their
clients. To protect their clients, they would need
to do a great deal more to caution them to start
with practice accounts, start small when they do
trade live, and so on. If they did that, rest
assured their revenues would drop off sharply.
How would they explain that to their
shareholders?
They cant really think about protecting you.
They do just the opposite. Instead, they send out
emails with offers of a matching bonus. As an
example, a newer trader called to tell me that he
had put in $20,000 to get a matching $2000
bonus. It seemed like a windfall to him. He
assured me that he would not trade the account
until the time was right. Shortly after that, human
nature being what it is, he did trade the account,
and not long after that, it was all gone.

In Summary
You are going to be successful as a Forex trader
because you are not overly impatient. You will
be a success because you have a very good
strategy. A strategy is not a trading method. A
trading method is a small part of the overall
strategy. A good strategy takes into account all
things that affect the outcome you seek. If you
are new, while some things may at first be
foreign, the strategy by which success is
achieved should not be foreign. All things work
exactly the same way in life. You already know
how to win. Hopefully, I can save you many
months and years, just as my friend Jon Barron
saved me many months and years when I began
my work helping to solve the problems people
face in health. I learned from his experience, and
saw the good logic in his conclusions. I did not
need to believe in him. I just needed to
understand the reasons behind his conclusions.
