How much money have you made in a year trading Forex?

[Cuong Truong]

If you haven't made any money in a full year trading in the Forex market, you may reply with how much you've lost.

The question itself shows that you're not following the right rules in forex.

Never talk in forex in $$$ but always in %%%. You can say, How much you made as % and $ ,,, But $ alone is not fair.

Suppose, trader 1 has $10,000,000 ... if he made 1% in the whole year, this equivalent to $100,000

If  trader 2 has only $1,000 ... if he made made 1000% in the whole year, this is equivalent to $10,000

For sure that trader 2 is much much doing better than trader 1 while trader 1 made 10 times of money than trader 2 !!!.

 

So, it is better to change the question to ... How much percent you have made in a year trading forex?

You are right

Not exactly, with $10M you cannot afford the same risk level like with $1000, and orders are often filled only partially. So it is kinda different.
