Is it easier to make consistent profits with forex than stocks?

Forex is the most volatile market there is. You either learn to handle the volatility and whipsaws or you are toast. Forex and stocks are like apples and oranges. They are not the same. Similar structure but totally different movement and volatility.
 
You could never make profit consistently, you should have proper amount of knowledge and experience and skills to make it happen. You should gain more profit than the loss incurred as you could never neglect profits.
 
Forex market keeps on changing. The majority of retail traders struggle to find out how to be consistently profitable in Forex.
 
Yeah, Forex Market is quite fluctuating and hence we could never predict it totally. thus we need to have proper amount of practice to gain in Forex Market.
 
Prediction is never possible in the Forex Market, and if it happens, its just luck by chance, you could never predict the market situations all the time.
 
Predicting anything in the forex market is actually impossible. Your best bet will always be to read the price action and act accordingly.
 
Predictions are one thing - hard data is another:

The EUR/USD has established its annual low or high in January about 80% of all years in recent decades.
 
It's not a question of whether it's easier or not. It has more to do with better risk management. Trade what you can afford to lose and not the other way round. So long as your trading edge is present on the chart you should be be able to make consistent trades. No need to make the process look like rocket science.

I have a theory that it is easier to make consistent profits with forex than stocks.

This is my reasoning.

When the stock market enters into a bear market, it is hard to make money with stocks because most stocks will decline. Even stocks with good fundamentals will fall in a terrible bear market.

In the forex world, there is no bear or bull market. This is because currencies trade in pairs. If this currency is bullish, then the counterpart is bearish. Unlike stocks where most will fall when the market is bearish, currencies don't fall in unison. When one fall, the other rises. Hence, it is easier for a skilled forex trader to make consistent profits than a skilled stock trader to make consistent profits.

Do the elite traders with experience in both stocks and forex agree with my theory?
