Let me itemize your questions in my response –
Number one – It was curiosity that drove me to this place. I didn't hear of this forum from anyone. I never knew there was even anything like it in existence until Google search brought me here. Reading from veteran and knowledgeable members here has been a rewarding and refreshing learning exercise for me.
Number two – It has been a bumpy ride, near misses and a touch of greed over riding my decisions to pull out until it got late. I learnt profit made isn't yours until it has been withdrawn into private wallet. I've been a victim of this.
Number three – Newbies should learn the process, research everything that catches their attention without taking the words said about them on the surface. Don't just believe anything until you've searched them out.
Number four – Nah! Not at all.
