Some of the older members might remember me. I got into forex back in 2009 when the retail forex industry was at its peek and the heavy handed U.S. regulations were just a rumor we all tried to pretend would never come true. I got so excited by the potential of this new investment tool called forex that I even started my own little website and then joined the FPA in September of '09 to share my experiences and try and help others along the way.
But after the Frank-Dodd Act became reality, my initial capitol proved to be far too little to sustain me as a full-time trader, at least that's what my government so graciously decided for me on my behalf. Silly me assuming I had the ability to figure out the big complicated world of forex investing with such a meager amount of capitol. But Big Brother knows best I guess.
So I retired from it all. And now, via forces I still do not understand, I feel this urge, this longing to re-enter this world of forex, even to the extent that I'm renewing the domain name of my site and thinking of writing all new content and even... gasp .... trading the markets again.
Please someone stop me! I've been out for far too long, so surely I've forgotten something about the pitfalls, the downside, the stress and strain of dealing with these unpredictable markets. Hopefully someone out there can prevent me from going down this road once again.
