I totally disagree. You can trade on the Forex market but you need to learn some basics of the market. You have to find the answers of some important questions including are you a mentally strong to control your emotions? Which catalysts move the market? Have you built a strategy for your trades?
Only basics are not enough for consistent profit. Forex is a professional work that requires specific knowledge and skills. That's the reason very few people are successful here. Most people treat forex like gambling. They do random trading. They do not have well defined trading system.
