I think it is forex. At least to me. But I wasn't doing so well until a few months ago as I take a very cautious route. Little risk.
My break through came with Forex Killer for my forex trading. Forex Killer Software was able to give me some consistent forex trading signals that were profitable and after I made some money I became more confident and was more able to trade with some risk making profits easier.
I have since tried a few automated forex trading systems but not gone fully into them as I always like to control my risk and exposure to loss.

Forex trading online is probably the most lucrative business in the world! It is however the most dangerous as well! Only 10% of Forex traders make money in this market (the other 90% lose)!! And that is because not everyone can have the DISCIPLINE it takes to trade by his/her rules. Once you've studied technical analysis and set yourself a certain edge to enter/exit a trade, you need to test that edge (system) on the demo account. Please don't start live trading until you have practiced the demo account for at least 2-3 months making profits CONSISTENTLY.. Money management is the most important issue here, small position sizing first (few lots), ALWAYS use a stop-loss order, and forget the word GAMBLING because if that's how you approach this business then you are destined to lose.
I think there is enough free educational stuff for the Forex on the internet to make you learn as much as you can before you engage into live trading.
I'm a Forex trader and I do make profits and a descent living out of it, but it took me a great deal of money (lost), psychological pressure, time and effort to learn this.
Wishing you the best of luck.
Be careful.

Trading is probably the most difficult business you will ever encounter, and the most challenging. If you have no experience with trading, then you should trade free on a simulator for several months while you learn. Here is the forex simulator, and then a stock simulator

A short and EASY answer. http://www.babypips.com. Go to their online "School of Pipsology". It is free, hilarious, and an excellent education. I am in no way affiliated with them. I just honestly believe it is the best online resource for people wanting to get started with Forex.
