Nicely said, first of all the type of mindset you need to have is to always remember that market or odds are against you... before taking any big risks you must think think carefully about this because you might always end up having losses..if you are the type of gambler that is experienced you know how important it is to manage the risks you take...this is what increases your chances of being profitable
When taking a risk, understanding that the uncertainty is twice as much because in this case you are going against the norm and that is why it is considered a risk, for some it is just another opportunity to make some more money away from the usual and for the others it is totally something not to engage in but get your mind prepared that whatever it is you are risking, you will loose possession of soonest.
