Demo practice!!!! Here's an analogy: the forex trading is a war zone, why on earth would you enter the battlefield untrained?! Would you send a soldier into war, without comprehensive training? So why would you think that learning to fight (trade) in the forex field would be a good idea to learn faster? If anything it will only make people quit faster (lol...and that is true). Yes 95% of traders don't succeed, but most quit...(mainly from getting 'rocked' in the live sessions) I say: learn to become an elite pro trader, then get your feet wet with the psychological factor...lol
Exactly should equip oneself first to lessen the risks on trading.
