Many active traders lose money.
Don't trade with capital that you cannot afford to lose or if lost, would have an adverse effect on your current lifestyle. Active trading is not suggested for retirement accounts or income generating accounts. Trade with your head not above it. However, in a rapidly volatile market, sharp price declines can also exaggerate your risk of loss. When customers trade with borrowed funds, they can lose more than they initially invested.
