However, very few people have made a profit from trading.
What makes you think you can't be among the few that are profitable in trading? Those who are profitable are humans without horns or two heads. They aren't aliens or UFOs. That was how I used to encourage and pick myself up when I started and was running into losses here and there like mad. So, you too can do it. All you need is to burn that midnight candle with focus. Oh, yes you've to research and practise like it's going out of fashion if you want to acquire those skills and be good at trading. It doesn't come any cheap or easy. That's the honest truth.
If I had taken a trade in a good token 15 days ago, I would have made a profit three to four times today. And in this case, you could have become rich.
You didn't take that trade because of fear of loss. You've to kill that fear mentality in you to overcome. The best way to overcome that is that have a control of your emotions, and the best way to control your emotions is to practise good MM strategy (Money Management).
