How I became a Forex Trader

Today I am going to talk about how I started trading and how it affected my life. I am a 19 year old college student, studying in Miami. I came to the U.S a year ago to a highschool in Boston with a basketball scholarship and played there 1 year then I got offers from couple universities but I didn't like the universitites becasue they were divison 3 so I applied universities with my academic success. After that I got accepted from 2 universities which is FIU and ASU. Then I chose FIU beacuse ASU's tuition was a bit high and Miami was the place I wanted to be. I came to Miami and university was about to start and then I met with a guy who is from the same country that I am from which is Turkey. He was doing crypto and forex trading and I was also into crypto but I've never did forex trading in my life and I wanted to try it. He helped me get started and tought me about forex. After 4 months of learning forex trading we started buying funded accounts together and the rest was history. We started making money and I was super excited and happy but my friend told me that I shouldn't be excited because it is trading and it is forex so anything can happen. He told me that I have to be emotionless while trading. After my first trade everything went well we took our profit. The second trade wasn't that good. we lost our profit and we were down. It is a funded account so if we lose more the account will blow and its over. Our setup was perfect and we were not thinking of blowing the account. After watching the trade for 3 hours we close the trade and we were up $3200. We withdrew the money and it was my first payout. After this happened I told myself that I have to do this for living and while I was studying college I am going to make money with trading and investing in crypto. Forex trading is the hardest way to make easy money so not everbody can be a trader. It's been only 4 months since I started learning how to trade and only been like a months I got my payout so it is a new begging for me but I will keep the consistency and see what happens in 3-4 years. Money comes when you work hard and be consistent.
