Re: Traders ill habits unnoticed [emotion is the trader's worse enemy]

In fact, anyone who sees the benefit is trying to see that the benefit I get is enough, and when someone sees the loss, he thinks that I have taken something high in price I don't want to sell, so he waits for it to go up, or go to his buying price, or he will book a little profit, so he will sell it, that's what he intends. It is obvious that no one will sell a thing cheaply if you have bought it at a high price, so it is a good practice to never sell anything in loss because it's reality that if you are doing loss every day then future will be dark.

It true that it's never advisable to sell at loss but that's for people trading with the plan of long term buying and holding.If one must sell in profits then leverage trades are not for them as it might liquidate the fellows funds entirely that's why stop loss is important. But some new bies would always want to get involved cause of the profits they see online from exparts which isn't healthy.
All what we are delibrating is just how we can cut our loses though loses is part of the game.

When we start winning we get anxious about loosing our gains .we close trades prematurely to capture the profits before the price starts to drop again.wereas we should be holding on to it and closing appropriately to maximize the profit.
     Conversely,when we start loosing we hold on to the losing position longer in the hope it will turn upward at some point.we have the irrational beleif that we will reduce or wipe out the lose without proper re-analysis.
So what is your proposed solution, do we hold on to trades that are in profit and always wait to when it gets to our TP before we take profit to always ensure we get maximum profit, and then quickly close trades that are in going the opposite way of analysis and signals placed. If that is how a trader reacts to the market, then they will close many trades in a loss due to pull back that can happen even before the charts start moving the way of our analysis. As a trader, whatever decision you take should be well reasoned out to make sure that they are not made based on emotions.

Yes it is true that most trades do pull back and maybe hits our sl before actually playing out.
  If a suspicious chart pattern or candle stick forms that you are not comfortable with along the process and you feel the trade might go against you the best way is to set trailing stops on the trade. But what favours me most is by leaving the trade to either hit sl or tp. It just requires patience.
Cause most of the times it stopes you out when you set trailing stop and finally plays out to your final tp without actually reversing to the point of your sl. don't know if you've experienced that once

Letting your profitable trades turn loses(common trading mistake)
by

There is no doubt that most traders if not all would have made or are still making the same mistakes.
   Making trading mistakes is part of every traders journey, whether completely new to trading or has been trading the markets for decades but still make some common trading mistakes.some of these mistakes are deadlier than others. The fact is there are some mistakes that are hard to accept for some traders. Ignoring a mistake and repeating it over and over again can spell the difference between becoming a successful trader or loosing one.

Letting profitable trades turn into loses is one of those.
  If you are making this mistake you are not alone.even some guru traders are guilty of this common mistake.
How many times have you perfectly timed your entry seen nice running profits only to see it melt down by a sharp reversal? (Though manipulations do occur at some point) I'll bet more than once.
Letting a profiting trade go bad is very annoying mistake but there's light at the top of the tunnel.
    The best way to correct this is by planning. Know your exit before entering a trade and develop your own trading exit strategies.

    You could use wild trailing stop for trending markets which are the best trading markets I'll recommend.
     You could also take a bit of your position off when the market makes some profits available.take a bit more as the move progresses and leave some on for the big wins. This process will help you take some profits and avoid sharp reversals.

Please do well to add your own strategy maybe it could help someone.

Re: Trading not for everyone!

Day trading or short term trading is not for me at-least and there are much success stories. Even experienced day trader finds it hard to tackle Bitcoin and incur heavy loses. Its always best to invest in Bitcoin for long term since thats the most reliable way to invest in any trading market. Day trading can give you profit occasionally but in the long run you are deemed to lose.

Day trading is not a bad strategy to me anyways. Sometimes the error might be  as a result of not having a proper trading plan. Trading plan covers a whole lot.

Some people trade without a solid plan of maybe day trading or swing trade. If you plan to day trade I think it's best done scalping the market to archive a particular target(inclusive in your trading plan) and after archiving that you close for the day.

Meanwhile swing trades you trade them and allow the trades to bring all what it gats regardless of the period of time it would last. Some people enter scalp trade entries and hope for a big and long term wins which latter bounces back and ends them in a loss. I'm also a victim of this but really trying to correct it though.
 So know the one you belong and hold tight.

Re: Kindly Share your trading Stategy.

Trading is something where you need to know analysis, money management, analysis risk, maintain loss, Control Your Emotions and so on. Well I believe its good to have your own stretegy rather than following others. But everyone has different mindset, so are for their trading Strategies. Can you share yours, so that other one could learn from you and can do improvement in himself? Thanks

One very vital strategy that a trader should adopt is by trading with the high to lower time frames. This is simply finding the trade direction from the bigger time frames then coming down to the lower time frames to take entries.

And again trend trading. Never trade against the trend.instead follow it and trade to the direction of the trade.

Traders ill habits unnoticed [emotion is the trader's worse enemy]

Most novice traders hold on to loses and let go of wins. Sounds ridiculous when you loud it yet several studies have shown that it's the most common mistake made by traders. It is simply our humanity and the completely irrational but understandable fear of loss.

The principle is simple.

When we start winning we get anxious about loosing our gains .we close trades prematurely to capture the profits before the price starts to drop again.wereas we should be holding on to it and closing appropriately to maximize the profit.
     Conversely,when we start loosing we hold on to the losing position longer in the hope it will turn upward at some point.we have the irrational beleif that we will reduce or wipe out the lose without proper re-analysis.

This is thesame principle that casinos exploit to keep unwitting patrons pulling at the one-arm bandits until their bank accounts are emptied.
  So even if we have more winning trades than losing ones, the average size of the wins versus the loses finds us in a net lose trading position over time.

It is the most basic and destructive mistake a trader can make and if left unchecked could become habits that would be difficult to break.

Please do well to add your opinions on this as this post is pron to corrections and contributions. Thank you.

Re: Newbie traders, work on yourself.

Newbies when it comes to trading you have to work on discovering yourself and not to basically depend on a  third-party or trading signals before you can execute a trade. You can rely on signals from those you view as professionals and still would not make profits and the reason for this isn't far fetched from the truth. It is because since it's not your analytics you have no comprehension to build confidence on the basis to why the signal request you to either sell or buy which makes any little falllback, retreat or retracements of the market in the process of your trading causes you a cold feet and extreme fright.

So the earlier every newbie interested trader understands that the period  he/she could use to seriously learn how to trade no matter how short the period could be in acquiring the right ideas/knowledge about trading to make you selfreliance, you'll be exhuming yourself from days to years of reliance on signals that not even have the potent to making you profit compared to that which comes  directly out of your own self-made analytical work.

That's correct. I was once a victim of this. I even went as far as paying for a VIP signal group believing them so much but still I ended up thesame level cause I had no knowledge about trading. Not until I gave my account to a so called professional who blew my 50 box then I stopped and gave myself to learning and it turned out well for me.

Nothing is too difficult to archive. The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Begin now to learn with what you have not until u meet a professional to get started. None of those knowledge acquired would be wasted.

Re: How to stay poor!

As a businessman or salary earners here are tips on how to stay poor in life. Grin

1. Spending your money on unnecessary items immediately the money arrives. Trying to prove a point to people by living a standard that is above your pay grade.

2. Live on one source of income. Everyday of our life our responsibilities and challenges keeps piling up accumulating without consideration to our financial capability. The economy and cost of living continue getting worsen. So in order not to be able to beat this piling settle comfortably on a single source of income flow.

3. Become an extremely cheerful giver/lender to friends and family. A wisdom quote I read somewhere said, "if you want to lose your friends and family lend them money".  Keeping doing this and you going to be successfully poor.

4.Learn how not to mind your own business, making every events around you your concern even when it doesn't affect you. It's a nice way to make cool enemies. Etc.


I trust you all get the sarcasm as conveyed.

Again you could also archive poverty by failing to invest in your self in attaining good grades and skills to foster your employers  Grin

Jack of all trades they say is master of none but you could be jack of many trades it actually pays.

It is very important to build one's self than solely relying on third party signals. You have more confidence and trust in what you do yourself than what you get from the next person.

And one major problem; account size varies so yours might not be the same as the one posting the signals so your both stop loss and take profit can't be the same. Hence, your trades tend to be more risky than you thought which is a bad account management measure.
