Post Interesting investment?

Hello my name is alex, I live in Tokyo and I work for well settle forex company.
My question: is forex an interesting investment?
Some people may say no, is too risky, is too difficult to understand, its a zero sum market, the leverage is dangerous, and some other stuff.
But then I think about the people that make money in this world. Do they make money without risk? Is there someone in this world who can make an investment knowing before hand that is going to be profitable? Knowing that there is zero risk?
Then I think again that if you don't understand something you wouldn't invest in that, but if you had someone to guide you and advice you, or at least show you some leads, and besides that willing to explain you the "why" of the things you don't understand, wouldn't be different?
Is really a zero sum market or is about who can stick to his plan and who gets panic and lose the temper. Remember, a forex trade must, above all things, keep his temper and his mind focus.
Leverage can be dangerous, if you only see with it with fear and doubt, but if you are able to trade with the leverage set in your plan, then it can become a really useful tool in order to take your profits.
So is forex an interesting investment?
I leave the question to you.

Default Re: Interesting investment?

Forex investment is gambling, and there has been a sudden surge in people like you spamming these forums with ads for forex services aimed at the unwary and inexperienced investor.

I've removed your advertising details and left what remains up - but in the meantime, anyone with no experience of forex really should think twice and think hard about moving into this area - forex is not a way to make easy money, and one of the highest risk strategies any investor could follow.
