What is this turkey on about? I am going short muslims and long aethism as a result of this.

I am single and living at home with parent’s to keep costs down. I have been at this for 3 years and although most around me wonder what on earth I am doing wasting my time I have decided to keep going until I either run out of funds or passion to succeed. I am not pessimistic It is juts...

So few people make money trading, are we all deluding ourselves that one can actually make money consistently trading? I think if most people on this forum are honest over time they have done nothing but loose money trading. People posting their P and is a sign of lack of long term...
