      I am sorry to hear about your losses in the forex market.I strongly suggest you not to trade forex until you have enough knowledge on forex trading.
      As you said your trades always went against you, it is because you don’t know why are you buying or selling or even most people dun know how to spot basic support and resistance patterns.Its happen in forex trading when someone doesn’t have enough technical knowledge.
      I am trying to publish my next lessons of technical forex trading very soon; it will help you.
      I am also starting educational webinar sessions for those who are joining our suggested brokers IB.
