I remember my first week in the fx...there was a news release, probably nfp, I jumped in when I saw eurusd diving sharply...in a couple of mins my account was up by 46%...I thought that fx was so easy when compared to stock exchange...of course about a month later I was back to where I started...that taught me a good lesson...

I made a sub-account (one for day trading, other for long-term positions) and changed leverage to 10x...since then I am after consistent gains, never trading during the news :D
