The same could be said about futures and commodities.
Commodities are futures so I'm not sure why you said futures and commodities. There are stock futures and commodity futures. Commodity futures do go up very slowly over a long period of time due to inflation while stock futures go up based on inflation, growth, and dividends. Also traders typically go much more highly leveraged on Forex than futures and commodity trading. It's not uncommon for Forex traders with $5,000 for example to have a lot position which is 20x leverage. It's not possible to go so highly leveraged on futures trading. Spreads are also smaller on Forex.
So not exactly the same but in short time periods they are pretty much the same as Forex trading due to how random it is. So yes I agree you should also avoid short term futures trading and especially leveraged trading.
