Reasons for continuing investment focused solely on FX
| | Hayakawa |
| Hana_aff, you have been active in the IT industry as a marketing and programming instructor, right? |
|
Yes, that's right.
From around 2009 I worked in marketing and SEO, then taught programming at a tutor for about five years.
FX has been a constant for me for about 15 years since I started working. |

| So you chose FX among investments, correct?
Why push forward with FX alone without venturing into stocks or binaries? |
|
At first, I thought of investments that could be started with a smaller amount of capital, andFX was the optimal choicein my view.
Since then, I haven't looked at binaries or other investments, and have continued withFX-onlythrough to today. |
| | | Hana_aff |
|
I started FX, but I had no idea where to begin...
| | Hayakawa |
| | Starting FX directly, you must have faced many challenges in the beginning, right? |
|
Yes, the beginning was really tough.
I started day trading and scalping by trial and error.
Results came quickly, which was exciting, but I lacked study at the time.
I didn’t even know economic indicators, and there were times I held positions during releases and ended up with sizeable losses, not understanding why I lost. |
| |
| | Hayakawa |
| That sounds tough...
At that time, did you end up with tens of thousands of yen in losses without understanding why? |
|
Yes...?
It was along those lines, as you described. |

A turning point does not come by accident
| | Hayakawa |
| So far we’ve talked about starting with FX alone and losing without understanding,
but how did you grow to become a full-time trader from there? |
|
First, even with limited time, I began studying seriously.
For example, I attended online investment schools and searched for books and online information.
What I changed most wasshifting from scalping to swing trading.
Because scalping felt too time-consuming, I moved to swing trading on the daily chart. |

| Is this about studying and changing your investment style?
What was the biggest change after switching to swing trading? |
|
Being too focused on every minute can also wear on you mentally, but with swing trading you were able to make decisions with a bit morebreathing room. |
| | | Hana_aff |
|
| | Hayakawa |
| Perhaps adopting a mindset of continuous learning was a key factor as well. |
|
I truly believe so.
Even now that I’m able to win, I keep studying, always with the idea that you must study to win.
I continue learning continually. |
