Course farmers stay unprofitable because they never choose a path long enough to become an expert.
A beginner thinks the goal is:
“Learn every strategy.”

Raw Spread or Standard Forex Trading Account Which Is Better for Scalping?
Replied 1 week ago -
For scalping, a Raw Spread account is almost always better than a Standard account — as long as you understand the commission costs and use proper risk management.
Raw Spread Account (Best for Scalping)
✅ Advantages
Very low spreads (often 0.0–0.3 pips on major pairs)
Faster execution
More accurate entries for tight stop-loss setups
Perfect for high-frequency strategies
❌ Disadvantages
You pay a commission per trade
Costs can add up for complete beginners
Requires discipline with trade management
⭐ Why scalpers prefer it?
Scalpers trade quickly and aim for small profits. Lower spreads give you a better chance to hit your targets.

London Session (Best for Low Spreads)
Time in South Africa (SAST):
🕒 10:00 AM – 7:00 PM
London is the biggest forex center in the world, so spreads naturally drop once the session opens.
This is the best overall session for low spreads in pairs like:
EUR/USD
GBP/USD
USD/CHF
GBP/JPY
London provides the highest liquidity during this period.

My dollar cost averaging forex strategy
Replied 1 month ago -
I guess you mean trying to get a better price using multiple entries. So, if I entered the first sell, Ii would wait for price to go up before entering the second sell and maybe with a bigger lot size?
