The reason I trade is to make money. If I wanted a challenge, I would attempt to climb Mt Everest. However, there are people who will tell you that some instruments are “easier” (Whatever that means) to trade than others, and they will advise you to start with those instruments. Why anyone would start with an “easy” instrument and then progress to a more difficult one is beyond my comprehension, but nonetheless, that is the advice you will often read.
My opinion is that once you understand the concept of supply and demand and learn how to judge which is stronger then you will be able to trade anything successfully.
Now, watch the dissenters come in!
