How did they do it?

If you want to learn currency trading and what it takes to win then you should make this story part of your essential for ex trading education. In just 14 days ordinary people with no experience learned to trade and make hundreds of millions of dollars. How did they do it?
In the nineteen eighties trading legend Richard Dennis decided to prove that anyone could learn to trade, with the right forex trading system and mindset...
He therefore gathered a group of people together who had no trading experience, who were of all ages, both sexes and of all educational standards. The group was diverse consisting of a security guard, to an actor.
He then taught them to trade forex and after 14 days gave them trading accounts.
This group made $100 million dollars in 4 years and went on to become legends.
So how did they do it -after all 95% of traders lose what made them different?
Dennis knew that the problem with traders is not so much method but mindset - they simply cannot stick to a plan and keep going when they incur losses. So although he taught them a simple method, he didn't tell them blindly to follow it, he taught them to learn it and have confidence in it.
You cannot have discipline without confidence.
Even when your confident, its hard to keep trading when the market hands you loss after loss and makes you look a fool.
It's a fact that anyone can learn to trade yet, few succeed and the reason is they either get the wrong information or simply cannot stay disciplined.
Most traders are simply unprepared for the fact that they must execute rules and stay on course when they lose trade after trade and don't believe all the rubbish you read online, about regular income and 90% accuracy - that's not the real world.
You can win at forex trading but you must be able to take losses to win longer term.
Most traders simply don't have the discipline to do this.
We don't have time to explain all the aspects of trading discipline here but it's hard to achieve but that's why traders who can trade with discipline are so successful - Dennis proved it.
The forex trading system used was simple ( essentially a long term breakout strategy) but it was the mindset he taught the traders - to stand on their own two feet, be confident and take short term losses, to seek longer term gains which was so important.
If you can learn a simple forex trading strategy, get confidence in it and apply it with discipline, you can win.
Sure its not easy, but you wouldn't expect it to be with the rewards on offer.
So if you want to learn currency trading the right way get a simple forex trading strategy and focus on your discipline and remember if you can't trade a system with discipline you don't have one!
There are big rewards to be made but your on your own and must have courage, confidence and conviction in what your doing - do that and you can enjoy spectacular currency trading success.
