When traders turn greedy or in rush to recover their previous losses, they will not be listening to the suggestions to trade small amount of money and also not think about testing their trading methods.
Instead of facing losses without testing trading strategies, I believe it would be much better when we are making small profits out of small capital. Emotion control must be more important for everyone to become successful trader but unfortunately I'm seeing most traders are not a all having enough patience and discipline and this is the reason they are simply facing continuous losses.
Traders enter into markets with predetermined goals which must be one of the reason why they are unable to follow all the prescribed way of trading. It means that they are in a race which makes them unable to follow all the basics. I guess they must leave off their aggressiveness so that they could focus on basics.
Strictly following the basics of trading is most important one for ensuring success in trading. When we are missing out basics then losses will become inveitable.
