Why does it seem so easy for other traders, but not for me?

I have been seeing some traders making huge profits from trading but I haven’t been able to make same. I’m good with technical analysis but it keeps looking like I don’t know what I’m doing. By now i thought i would have started making it big in trading. It’s become exhausting really.

Most of those traders are lying, they are not profitable. Why do you think the stats say 95% of retail traders lose? It means for every 100 traders in a room, 95 are not finding it easy. Thats some crazy numbers!

If you have a strategy with some edge, then "You're not a losing trader because you don't know enough about technical analysis".

For example, I know traders who make money 10 days in a row, only to lose it all on a single day, give it all back & more. The reason for this is trading without any limits, I've been there & done that, and it is not a good feeling.

If you have a strategy that can make money & you can execute it flawlessly with discipline, you will make money in the long term. Hence the 20 trades rule on a platform that actually hard caps the risk limits.
