Why 75% of Traders Lose Everything: The Startling Math Behind It 📉💸

While trading may seem like a fast track to wealth, most traders end up losing money. In fact, 75% fail due to poor math, psychology, and lack of preparation.

The Harsh Math of Trading 📊

1. Loss Recovery: A 50% loss requires a 100% gain just to break even. The bigger the loss, the harder it is to bounce back. 🔻

2. Fees: Small fees can add up. Spending $500/month on commissions could eat up 60% of a $10,000 account in one year. 💰

3. Leverage: While leverage can increase profits, it also amplifies losses, putting your account in serious danger. ⚡
