Yes, it is definetely not easy and can take years before one understands it completely and make profit. The first few years are mainly for making many mistakes and understanding why you made these mistakes and how to avoid making the same mistakes again. I am super happy I could find all information online for free. Many people spend 1000's of dollars to pay a Forex expert for teaching them golden strategies but at the end you are the one who smashes that buy or sell button. It's all about controlling your emotions and greed. You too good luck with trading!
