Hi guys I just wanted to share a little bit of my trading background with you guys.
It’s a story that takes us way back when I started learning about this industry.
I had a friend of whom we used the same transport together to go to school.
At that time I didn’t know anything about the trading industry I wasn’t even into instagram in those days.
Oneday after-school all the gents were hanging out.. you know transport mates and this one in particular comes and tells us about this guy by the name Ginimbi ,RIP to him man. So he was like …do ya’ll know this Guy called Ginimbi?(Rhetorical)
Ehh this guy makes money from these electric graphs that are green and red coded and I’m like yo this guy is talking about some next level softwares and all then he explained to us that guys…This thing is called forex trading and I’m like fore-what…and he said forex trading and this guy basically deals with foreign Currencies.
Well Ginimbi did say that Forex Trading isn’t his line of business but I kid you not I was already sold into the idea that this guy was telling us because number1,I only focused on the word Currencies and I mean I know that’s money right there and It gave me that urge to learn more about Currencies and the countries that use that currency.I started learning about their economies and how money flows in the economy thinking to myself that this is going to give me a great edge to this Forex thing.
I than started seeing traders on YouTube,Instagram and other social media platforms.I started following them and tried to get information on this industry and I kid you not I spent more than 3years just basically learning about Currencies,the economy,financial Literacy at a beginner level and I traded forex on a demo account.
I won’t lie this thing was hard man I thought that everything was just electric wires seeing red and green all over my screen.
I then started learning how to trade practically on a live account bcoz I was always on and off on a demo so I wanted something that could grab my focus and keep me woke.
I then started trading on a live account and yes…you know how that goes when you’re starting out on a live account.Real emotions start kicking in.
My first feeling of seeing the blue color on my platform when looking at p/l numbers was really out of this world.
I was Happy for atleast 7seconds then my eyes went blank.The numbers started changing colour and my heart dropped to the floor.I blew my first account.
This is when the journey started.
Constant blowing of accounts and generating little amounts of profits as opposed to losses kicked in different kinds of emotions.Social media started doing its thing,my self-esteem and productivity got impacted…negatively.
This Is when trading took me to my first lesson,”Do self introspection”.
I started identifying that my esteem is dropping and emotionally I had a lot that I was dealing with so me blowing my accounts also added to the equation, but out of the lessons I’ve learnt, the most common lesson in a trader’s life is to be patient and to take what the market gives you(partial profits) . I Started Identifying some aspects of myself I didn’t know about myself …for (e.g)My character.I used to be a guy that only sees something from my own perspective and I only went with that without even looking at what others are doing or trying to adapt.That right there led me to understand the concepts behind character.
I started writing down the person I want to be and how I want to live in the future and I started doing that from that day…till this day I’m still doing that and this brings me closer to my goals and It’s easier for me now to achieve most things I set for myself because I started focusing on myself as much as I do on my passions and that’s really important guys.
This is a summary of what my trading journey has been like.There’s more to this{trading} than it meets the eye.
