Isn’t that weird that the large execution platforms insist on easiness and low costs of trading, rather than showing stats of profitable traders?

That’s because “maybe 0.5% of day-traders earned more than the initial salary of a bank teller”.

Personal experience: I have not seen one true money-maker among all the hundreds of candles-and-patterns prop-traders who have reached out to me for investments. Actually, those words would be enough for me to throw them immediately out of the pile of cash-seekers.
