There is risk in all things you do, including trading, traders of all kinds have been trying to find the formula that will allow them to do just that and many people have failed, so it is important to remember that even if a person trades solid assets, they can still lose money, since the markets can move on unpredictable ways that you may not expect, and cause you to endure losses so great that they may be enough to cause you to give up trading for good.
There's no assurance in terms of acquiring profits there's still risk and up and down that you may experienced but the sole motivations is when you decently earn both money and experienced, it's more on how you deal with knowledge and how you execute the potential outcomes, there are potential to earn once you already overcome greed and fear that keeps on holding you down to make mistake, your call and your decision making is very important to make that success.
Of course, sometimes experienced traders will still experience losses, which can be said that the risk in trading applies to anyone, but the difference is that when someone is experienced, they will not experience too much loss compared to beginners who still have little knowledge. And this is why a trader is always advised to continue learning new things, because when your knowledge is greater, the amount of loss can also be minimized.
Another point is to never make a decision when you haven't found the right moment with the strategy you have, because usually that's the mistake I make in the sense that I sometimes force the situation to enter and execute the market even though it is the wrong time to execute, and also the point is to remain firm in your stance and always be disciplined with planning, try to make all the decisions you make based on rational reasons and considerations.
