I think every trader does the same thing before entering his business. But what must be considered here is to do a good analysis. Don't expect anything from the market but the market decides what it does and where it goes. This is all analysis on the well and learn as much as possible. There is a verb "fast with farming and selective with business". The more you study and practice, the more you will mature to decide what to do. Many mentors say it's better to start with a demo account and virtual currency before using real money. It can help a lot to have knowledge of the trading market and their behavior. Some mentor suggestions to follow mentors who are currently active in this market and make decent profits. It is an individual obstacle to choose the approach to starting work.
