A trader can be very successful if he follows consistency, discipline, and perseverance. Money management is one of the key elements in being a successful trader. Before you even consider trading, you first have to figure out how much risk you are willing to take on. If you're not willing to lose your money, then don't trade. Trading without a plan is just gambling.

If you backtest and forward testing your strategy and still don't see the result.

You’re right! The forex market is indeed quite unpredictable and losses are an inevitable part of it, but there are ways to cope with the unpredictability and losses by incorporating smart risk management strategies in each of your trades.
Say it isn't so!
Totally agreed! Had there been only losses in forex trading, there wouldn't be as many forex traders as we see theses days. Moreover, the market also has a trading volume of over 6 trillion dollars, which shows that people are trading currency pairs and using risk management strategies like you've mentioned to minimize losses.
Just like any profession, there comes a time in forex trading when things don’t happen the way you’d have liked them to. I’ve been through that phase, but I was clear in my head that I’d stick to the trading process that I’ve been following all along and remain patient. I did that and got the results eventually.
