Today, I'm going to talk about the realities of learning how to trade properly and why it's probably not quite as easy as you think it might be. Let's talk about that and more right now.

Hey there, Traders! Andrew Mitchem here at the Forex Trading Coach with video and podcast number 537.

A trading reality check.

Now today it's a bit of reality check. And it's kind of like not being grumpy day, but just wanted to keep things real. I've had just a few interactions with people over the last week or so that just got me kind of beating my head against the wall. One was a client and the other is not a client, and it just makes me realize that there's so many people out there that are not real with their trading.

And people unfortunately don't seem to be able to. A lot of people anyway, don't seem to be able to. And accept the realities of hard work, dedication and a bit of time, commitment and effort. And also not an instant answer, an instant fix.

How much can I make?

Now, I want to talk about that because I think that you've got to get your head around that if you're going to give yourself a realistic chance of being a successful fighter because everybody wants to know how much am I going to make, how long is it going to take me, how much do I need to my account?

How many prop firms do I need? All these? How to what's the answer? And without actually figuring out that they need to ...
