Based on what I'm seeing now as a trend on social media, most scammers are deceiving the beginners, they make them believe that they can become rich through trading without doing any other job, that's why some newbies are so determined to be like their internet mentor. Most of those internet mentors are just content makers that got promotion offers from brokers, they are hired to promote a broker and from there, they starts to tell false stories that would convince some beginners. Other beginners in my country who fall victims to it have realized themselves and are into jobs, they will go back to trading later.
People should be very careful about what they accept on social media because there are lots of garbages and deceptions, I see pop up adds about trading, some guy telling that you can be making hundreds of dollars everyday in your house, in the end they will share a link. Many young people are looking for get rich quick schemes and they will fall victim to influencers and fake projects, scammers are getting richer off ignorant people everyday.
I've always known that trading shouldn't be taken as a full time job because you don't control the market, as a matter of fact traders should only use amount that they can afford to loose to enter trade. It is not a job that you are guaranteed to make profit and if you make the mistake of relying solely on it for survival you will become very desperate which can lead you to chasing loses, you can become worse off at the end of the day. Gain knowledge from experienced traders and treat it like a side hustle, when you you start to become very profitable you can then consider it as a main job but I don't recommend it.
