    Forex trading is difficult!!!

    Are you trading 0.1 lot or 1 lot? The earned pips in 4 days are 500 pips? All your trades are made after work? You mentioned you didn't quit current job. If 500 pips a week, trading 1 lot, that's $5000/week, $20000/month, definitly you can quit your full time job and as full time trader.
