    What happened to the old traders

    Yet price drivers work the same way...you enter a trade and hope u r lucky! That has to be the case since you have losing trades, you don't have a 100% or anywhere near it win rate. A fluctuating price influences other traders to trade which leads to future prices not being random (that...
