Hi All,

I'm still a total newbie when it comes to trading. I've been doing this almost a year and lost quite a bit by my standards.

I've got a system that I know is, and can be profitable but can't make it become so. Honestly, I'm at my whits end and I need a mentor, somebody that will walk through my system step by step and show me where I'm going wrong and how to correct it. I know this is probably a lot to ask but if there is someone out there that is trading professionally for a living that would be able to show me the ropes I would REALLY appreciate it.

The only thing I can say is that if someone that has been successful would take me under their wing I would be eternally grateful.

Thanks,
Trevor.

Hi there Trevor,

I think anyone that has traded in the forex market has felt that feeling of wanting to pull there hair out, the highs are very very high but the lows are just as extreme!
I have been trading for around 3 years and all i can say to you is slow down, learn as much as you can about Money Management and make sure what ever your trading plan is that it is complete, you should have every base covered by the time you pull the trigger, you should have your you exit strategy in place no matter which way the trade goes and this is where most traders get it all wrong.

I have pulled back my trading lately after paying for a cheap course, my advice to you is to slow down and take a step back, there is no rush as the market is not going anywhere but your money sure will if you don't take your time and focus on getting your trading plan and most importantly your Money Management right.

I hope this helps a little.

Take care.

Hey, trevorlawrence! My advice is as Globarprofits', take it easy - don't haste. Also, know what you're doing. I don't know what your knowledge is like, but currently I am reading School of Pipsology. It's an easy to read tutorial. I have been trading stocks and CFDs for a few years, but I haven't done any Forex before. So I found that guide to be a good starting point.

Learning Forex is a challenge. It takes time and a lot of different resources. Traders
are not making money right away, so it is probably good idea to ensure that profits
are beeing made during this learning period.
One way to do that is to auto-trade your account with good reputable company
like zulutrade or somebody else and have time to learn without stress.
