Trading is a highly competitive business and there are many long-term losers.

The odds against us are, in fact, shockingly high. And perhaps higher than we realise.

For example, here is one unfortunate reality:

Mr. Ronald L. Johnson prepared a report for the North American Securities Administrators Association (NASAA, a consumer protection group trying to keep the futures industry honest) on the success of retail traders. In his study, Ronald L. Johnson found that almost 70% of traders lose money.

But we’ve all heard the rumours from brokers and the media. This number could be MUCH higher (90% or more) and there seems to be some truth in it.

So, what do the successful traders do different to the rest?

Meet Martin Lembak – broker, analytic and system trading expert.
