As a beginner you might be astonished and shocked at how easy you may “earn” 500 or 1000 dollars in minutes. It’s because of the leverage that you use, or the money that bank lets you to operate with. That’s why having only 100 dollars you may trade with 10.000 dollars and get profit or loss from the currency market fluctuation.

However, beware that it only feels like you can earn millions in a year. It all seems very easy when it’s not your money at stake and when you’re not under pressure. The real game and the real deal start when you start trading with your real money. That’s when about 70% of all forex freshmen lose and quit this business as another unsuccessful venture.
