Hi everybody! I am new here. I started learning about trading 2 years ago. I left my 12 year job back in February of this year so I started trading full time in March. It has been hard for me since first: English is not my first language and second: I did not now anything at all about Wall Street. I have lost some money and I am now looking to get consistency so I can pay my mortgage with trading. I have tried forex and futures, but now I am trading only futures: NQ, NG and sometimes ES and CL. The two markets that work better for me are NQ and NG. I basically use price action. I look at divergence, supply and demand, support and resistance with the help of EMAs and a little of MACD on 5, 15, 60 and 240 minutes. This is what it has been working for me a little better lately. I really like trading and want to be able make a living with this because I don't want to go back to work for any body. I am very excited that I found this forum and I am sure I will learn a lot and hopefully I will be able to contribute with something any time soon.

Welcome. At first don't aim for paying your mortgage with profit from trading. In fact, you need enough capital put aside to handle living expenses.

i agree with @luigizerozero. trading fulltime is so risky and difficult since you will be using your trading money to pay the bills. you mentioned you just learned trading 2 years ago. i assume you already have a working methodology to be able to trade fulltime.
