In my opinion, the OP was ignorant (definition: lack of information = education) about the reality of trading. $$ signs in eyes, usual greed emotions overcame good sense.
The trader(s) (and I use the term in extremely loose sense) played a part in enticement touting the wonders of FX, how it's easy money (pure bulls**t) and all that usual crap.
Any aspiring money manager who even hints of profit potential greater that +1% daily average for managed accounts is a deliberate liar, total fool, or both. One who is guilty of any degree false enticement AND dodges the honorable act of making the victim whole or at least partially reimbursed on the loss should leave our industry forever, period.
But... as Dennis Miller used to say, "That's just my opinion. I guess I could be wrong."
