Answer:
In order for you to buy some currency another person has to be selling currency, like any other market the currency is a physical item, if everyone tried to buy currency there would be no sellers and therefore no way to open a position. Obviously when you buy a position someone else might be selling short, or someone might be closing a position that has already gained them profit. The other reason that some lose while others win is that people can look at the same data and read it differently. Some trades will always be a loss (for everyone). That is the nature of trading markets. It would be a perfect world if everyone could profit constantly from markets. But its not possible. The way to win is to learn to preserve capital and minimise the losses.
