After I “opened door” for new friendship, many new friends has been listed on my messenger list. Most of them are newbie in forex trading. And I don’t mind with it. I love to share knowledge and information about forex trading.

Mr.X : 24 going to 25
Me : ic.. so plenty time to learn ![]()
Mr.X : i will be happy to learn this if you can teach me.
( Frankly speaking, I don’t like this kind of conditional requirement. He will be happy to learn this IF I can teach him. In other words, he will not learn anything IF I don’t teach him. Well it’s his lose, anyway
)
Me : I can’t teach if you don’t read anything
Mr.X : i will read
Me : You have to learn something then come back to me when you have questions
Mr.X : ok sir
Me : Forex knowledge doesn’t come up instantly. It needs process and stages. And will be growing along with your experience and previous knowledge.
Mr.X : Yes i know. Thank.

As I said, I love to share knowledge about forex trading. But I must say here that I don’t teach. I don’t collect money from teaching you one on one. I just love to share and discuss. And I’m sure there won’t be any discussion if you don’t have any knowledge or questions to discuss
You must know that Forex Trading is a business. Like many other business, you have to know all aspects about your business. How can you make your business profitable if you don’t know your business well ??
And to know about all aspects in forex trading business, you have to learn many things including trading strategy, psychological aspect and money management.
I notice many people put their EA on their chart and expecting miracles happen on their account growing rapidly, without knowing how his EA works. No wonder these people always keep loosing their money.
Even if you are using Expert Advisor, you have to know about manual trading already. EA is similar to autopilot on a plane. A pilot can’t use autopilot system, if he can’t fly the plane.
So keep your spirit of learning many things.
