Most of traders in loses but i think this percentage are not 95%, i am also short term traders and i agree that now i lost big amount in last two months.
Short term traders have to take big risk, if it will work profit is also big. If most of traders are lost their money so they are trying earn money from other sources.
Majority of traders in the market are trading without the confidence of making profits in the market. This is nit mostly because their strategies are bad and not good enough but can be as a result of the market change of patterns and structure.
We need to understand market structure a lot for us to make profits from the market. This is one of the reasons why what works for us before might not work again. The market keep changing patterns and strong and we should not allow that to affect us as a trader.
