If you think about it, if it was so easy using these indicators, why is it that so many people fail miserably at trading forex? As a matter of fact 95% of traders lose money trading forex.
You’re probably thinking why is that? If these indicators are so easy to trade with and the trading rules are so mechanical, why is it so hard?
