What is your goal in Forex?

I myself am trying to build a succesful and long career in this market. It has brought me through a lot of ups and downs and a lot of painful learning. For roughly 6 years I was in the dark as far as understanding what really goes on behind what I call the "currency curtain." So why was I always up and down and never able to come out ahead with all of this knowledge out there? Because 99.9% of all of it is bullshit... and I think if you're here then you have already had a taste of that bullshit yourself. Even if your trades are going great for days, weeks, or months I'm sure you have had a bad streak right? Or maybe you got luck on trading "resistance lines" or "flag signals." Perhaps your trading in the 15 minute chart? All I know from trying all these things and simliar bullcrap is that you WILL FAIL. Because its designed to make you fail... sure you can get a glimmer of hope every now and then and have enough to hang you up, and thinking I'm wrong. However if you want a long game progressive investment that will build you into a very easy lifestyle then I'm here to help. So I'm curious to know, what is your goal in Forex?
