The goal of most people who trade is certainly to get quick profits but the difference is that some do use calculations, strategies or analysis and some blindly as you say.
Most people see trading as a place that they can make quick profits, and most newbies are misled by the posts on social media on how people are making money with trading and things like that, they always think all those posts which they are seeing are real, so they are always desperate to make money from trading, and they don’t know that all those posts they see are fake, and those people that created the posts have another motive for doing that.
I don’t think anyone that really understands trading, will say trading is a place where you can make quick profits, everyone knows how difficult and risky it is to make money when trading. All those posts we see on social media are just seeking for attention, some of them have a trading signal, and some of them are looking for engagement.
I myself think why they lose their first capital is because it is natural, for those who do it with a strategy I think the First Capital lost is like a way to test the strategy, so if the results are disappointing then there is something that needs to be fixed again.
When I started trading, I didn’t lose my first capital alone, I lost so much money during that period, because I don’t have anyone that will guide me properly during that period, so I just had to learn in the hard way. After depositing in my wallet, I waste everything within a short period of time, and I will have to look for a way to deposit more.
