Video: Why do Most Traders Lose Money in Forex

CFDs are especially risky with 74-89% of retail accounts losing money due to high leverage and complexity. Cryptocurrencies and options exhibit extreme volatility, while futures can also lead to significant losses. Even stocks and bonds can depreciate quickly during market downturns, and total loss can ensure if the issuing company fails.

It's vital to align these investments with your financial goals and if needed, consult with financial professionals to navigate complex financial markets.
