Thread: Suicide and forex

  1. #1
    I'm interested in suicide among optional retail traders, who generally suffer the greatest plogical and fiscal distress and would be less likely to pull major news coverage. Does anybody have any articles or anecdotes to discuss retail trader suicides?

    Great analogy but silly solution. I don't actually feel that for a fantastic man passing is a dreadful thing.

    Never see any post about this issue! But, I think the percentage will be quite low. Because; many of the new traders start their trading using a huge lose!

    At one point -25 years back - concert violinists had the highest suicide rate of any job (not certain if that's still the case). There weren't nearly as numerous retail traders around back then, but the two pursuits mainly parallel each other. 8-10-12 hours daily practicing, having to push yourself as nobody else will do it; making the phrase, I can't, I have to practice your standard response whenever somebody wants to create plans with you; having to become painfully self-critical and man-up every error; having dre and ambitions of a degree of success and finally having to settle for something ; deciding at some point you are likely to do'the responsible thing' and find a real job and'continue doing it on the side'.

    Seems familiar?

    Yes it does.

    Spot retail forex is a quiet killer... For some, it's a cancer which takes time to grow over several years and that can't be discussed about.
    You can see the tip of the iceberg and all seems fine but below the water line is an enormous mass of dead bodies (many figuratively and some literally)

    On a long enough timeline, the survival rate for everyone drops to zero.
