i think the non centralized exchange has a huge part in it when your trading directly against your broker you will lose.
Most forex retail traders lose money. Why is forex so difficult?

Your broker could be moving spreads against you so they can balance their overall risk exposure. They are effectively bound to do this, its not personal to you. But this does indicate you are trading on a very short time-scale. If you trade long-term and get into a trend with a stop that takes account of daily volatility, there is nothing the broker can do to stop you making a profit.

I believe many retail forex traders lose money because forex trading is easily accesible. Using too much leverage is also an issue.
In addition to this I think there is a lack of good education about currency trading. A lot of education comes from forex brokers who just want you to buy and sell very frequently. Good education usually comes from successful TRADERS and not marketing specialists.

Forex is harder because there is less directional bias and fx is less regulated.
What dose that mean Bro.
Nice, I love this kind of manipulation.
1. You included only one side of retail level comms which is 2.3 - 2.5 per side so cost of trade for CL is just under $15.
2. You picked one of the worst FX brokers in regards to execution. I guess you might as well find a broker charging $30 for your CL trade. Market standard for EURUSD is 0.2 pip spread + $6 roundtrip comms which is 0.8 pip all in. Execution cost for EURUSD is 8*1.2=$9.6.
It may not look the same for US citizens as you guys are stuck with oanda, gain and IB with no competition at all. Not sure how this could happen in 'the land of the free'
I'm not saying CL is ineffective. It's very good market and I like it.
