It is true that trading isn't easy to do. Although we have proper knowledge, it is not enough to succeed in trading, we also need a good experience. Both knowledge and experience are needed in trading, this is the main factors to increase the chance of success.
Especially if you play in futures or trading with leverage, that's it, if you don't understand, it's really like gambling. That's why many people think that trading is gambling, because many beginners don't understand but immediately enter future trading due to FOMO from influencers or trading signal groups.
The point is, trading can actually be profitable, even many people have succeeded in becoming traders. However, success is not as easy as imagined, the process is difficult and complicated, even many people give up. However, if you want to learn continuously and really apply dedication and discipline to trading, yes, there is a possibility that in the long run we can do it. It's just that once again it won't be easy and the risk remains high.
