 On one hand, it may seem that it is impossible to take control over emotions while trading, but at the same time, everything is possible in trading in case of constant learning, seamless practice and pure desire to attain goals in the financial industry. Handling emotions that appear once a trader bears losses or even faces a whole loss streak is a matter of experience. Supposing that one only begins their journey in trading. In that case, emotions are inevitable because the organism, namely the (Amygdala) in your brain, turns on the defensive mechanism, which is revealed via emotions, usually negative ones such as despair, fear, disappointment, anger and others.
 Professional traders or, at least, those who have acquired particular experience in trading understand a couple of simple rules that prevent excessive emotional bursts, rules such as:
1. Do not overtrade, always allocate time for relaxing and purifying the mind.

2. Do not abuse leverage.

3. Do not place high hopes on trading, always stay alert.

4. Act wisely and appeal to a rational sense rather than an emotional component.
 These are some of the key points about trading that are understood by those who have gained some experience.

 In case one faces a loss streak, and there is a need to handle bad emotions that force them to give up trading and leave the market, it is recommended to look at things soberly, turning on analytical thinking. Analyzing mistakes is one of those "pills" that can help to understand that the market is operated by regularities. It means that there is always a chance to conduct analysis correctly, even though it requires a bit more time than usual before opening the position. The prudent approach to analysis includes not only an analysis of made mistakes but also a review of successful deals because they have led to success.
 If nothing helps to deal with emotions, one can try different practices that are highly recommended in trading circles, such as meditation, mindfulness exercises, and others. They are aimed at relieving mental pain, suppressing negative thoughts, and gradually substituting them with positive ones. It is also of utmost importance not to approach the market while having anger or irritation because, in this case, actions are driven by emotions, not by rational sense.
 These are some methods and practices I think traders could use in controlling their emotions when they lose while trading, you could give your opinions or add more if you got any, also I'm open to corrections so feel free to include some corrections in any statement you feel I'm wrong.

Overtrading is not good at all. It is bad for health and also it might lead to losses. But if a trader is good, as he is making money from trading, it will enliven him to be opening positions more often but and checking the market also more often. This is not good at all. Too much trading is not good.

One of the cause of failure in trading is too much leverage. But also the coin that we are using to trade is very important. You can be a good trader but the coin you are trading can be causing losses. Do not trade shit coins.

A trader should always know that trading is as risky as gambling. This is very important. The risk should be minimize with good strategies and also aiming for profit.

The first rule you mention I recently can't control myself I lost in the trade blaming myself for not managing the risk properly now I feel how new traders feel every time they lose in the trade.
I'm pretty stressed lately but I accept the fact that I lost and am still new to trading instead I play stress music on YouTube and play games a bit.
 
What I learned from trading is that you need to bring your emotions out on the trading you should always keep stop-loss because recently that's the reason why I lost big because I canceled my stop-loss setup and also chasing a profit is a pretty bad decision when you are already late on the entry point.
Trading is risky if you don't have risk management and you don't control yourself properly. Since I learn a bit from past mistakes I always go back to where I started and review what are my mistakes that I can use in the future.

Take a break should be the number 1 rule here! I usually uninstall all my trading app when I suffer a bad trade and continue on the other day once I already get over on my losses. It’s very hard to formulate another entry for trade without considering your emotion for your trade just to recover your losses.

I like the avoid leverage suggestion because this is the typical path of loser trader to get higher capital as substitution to their lose funds so that they can gain quicker for recovery. Exchange intentionally provide a higher a leverage option to take advantage on newbie traders and losers to use it and loss all their funds through liquidation.

Lastly, if you are always losing in trading then maybe it’s time to quit and focus on job that gives you fix profit or simply just hold for long term.

There's nothing much expected than when you're gambling moderately without doing above your capacity , any outcome will be taken and accepted by you because you already know that you're not beyond your limit, the more why we should always trade with the minimum amount in which you could afford to loose, i don't expect a newbie go into trading like that without having prior experience on how to trade or by starting with small amount of money.

In my opinion, as long as trading is concerned, it is not something that anyone can actually boast of being 100% professional about because no matter how professional an individual is in trading, they definitely will still experience losses, and sometimes the mind gets troubled because of the money they lose in the process of trading. That's why some people's emotions push them to make more mistakes, resulting in more losses. There's no one that is always happy about losses; that means that no matter how experienced a trader is, they don't feel happy about their losses, but they have only adopted some practices that help them overcome their emotions. Apart from what you have already listed in the OP, others are: 

• If you cannot overcome your emotions after several attempts at practicing and trading with consecutive losses, just stop trading and do something else. That's because not everyone knows how to handle their emotions.
• Don't only believe in making profit while trading; always keep in mind that losing in trading is also one of the trading characteristics and a reality show for every trader. 
• Make use of stop-loss and take-profit options; it will prevent too many losses that can make the trader so emotional. If, for example, a trader should lose $1000 while trading, he can decide to apply a stop-loss never exceeds $500 or $800. Too much loss contributes to too much emotional trouble.

Trading often can improve the confidence that a trader has in the market, but overtrading can reduce the mental alertness of a trader to spot resistances and supports etc. Trading and studying the charts can be something that becomes time consuming even without the knowledge of the trader, every new trader has to avoid this pit because just as it can make a trader, it can also lead to a trader making one wrong decision from mental exhaustion or over-confidence.

This thing has been discussed exhaustively in the forum, the talk of trading and how to control ones emotions when trading, i am not a day trader, but i think a trader with the right skills and knowledge, who knows the risk involved in trading would know how to combine trading and other life activities, and also know when to stop. The thing is, trading is quite risky, that is why newbies are advised to stay away from trading, whilst the mistake the more experienced traders make is to think they can make profits everytime, or to keep on chasing profit even when they are losing.

Just don't over-trade. Like you said, that's the most important part. Successful traders do their trades monthly. Sometimes even yearly. 4-5 trades/year is more than enough if you want to make money from trading. If you are doing 10 trades every day, you are probably addicted to gambling and you are probably losing money. Always trade a portion of your portfolio and keep a huge hodl stash and keep them in a cold wallet. I am hearing some bad news on exchanges locking people from their accounts randomly. You don't wanna end up like this trust me. Especially binance don't give a shit. They can keep your acc locked for months without giving out any information on what's going on.

Not easy how to handle emotion when lose during trading, but to reduce our emotional for awhile close all market and take time getting rest then explore your hobbies to get back good mindset forgetting with loss before in trading.
I have hobbies with playing football and always explore my emotion after losing in trading and try to forget awhile with market current dropping, spent your time with family seems not bad ideas how to handle emotion after losing in trading and return back to the market with good emotional.
If market condition still not support yet with still drop better take a rest few days in trading how to reduce emotional, then come back later after market currently growing up and emotional have controlling well. Usually future trader face more emotional when losing position but for spot keep enjoying become long term holder when market dropping.

Sometimes trading can't be predicted which I think it is not right for a trader to overtrade because there is no guarantee whereby people overtrade and they will surely make more profit. Most times when we overtrade due to over confidence in trading one ends up in losing everything.  It is important for traders to understand that there are limits in trading and one needs to stick to it and not to overtrade. When the right things are not done in trading it will definitely come with emotion as the end result.

If traders don't want to be disappointed and feel bad towards the result of trading they Need to do the right things,  when trading is not done the way it supposed to be done it will definitely put people to pains.

I have to make a brief comment here: trading can NEVER be predicted, otherwise it wouldn't be trading. You can predict things like rising volume, falling prices, upcoming listings, ... can be factored in, but that doesn't mean you can predict the price trend.

That's what makes it so difficult to keep emotions out of trading. You are completely convinced of yourself and your market assessment (BTC is rising!, ...) and it is very difficult to admit to misjudgements, at least in the beginning, as this also means you have to doubt yourself and your own trading skills.

Taking a break is obviously the first option on my list of things to do or not do when one loses during trading and for me one should understand what it is they are doing.
The moment one sits to analyze how the loss came about and understands that successful traders often encounter loses and it's no big deal really, until one knows if they are good at it and can continue or not.
A clear strategy is for the trader to adopt during a trading session inorder to know if to just watch the market or dive right in facing the risk. It is also one way to avoid suffering a loss emotion twice.

While it can make you more exposed and improve your performance in trading, overtrading is not advisable at all. Give yourself enough time to relax and be calm, since life is not just all about chasing more profits but most likely its all about balancing your life activities. Also, overtrading, as much as you’re exposed to winning your trades if you are an expert trader, it can also increase the chances to lose on your trades. Note that you are still trading in such unpredictable market, so you cannot anticipate that you control all the outcome of your trades, sometimes it’s just that some goes out beyond our control.

Or much better not to leverage when you can't handle it. Most of the traders that have tried it stop leveraging when they're aware of it and can't stop themselves much because of how emotional they are.

Overtrading is the cause of it and when they seem to see the effect of it as they trade, they're no longer trading at all with discipline but instead, they're trading with their emotions and it is high.

And going on that state gives them hard time to analyze and understand all of the situation that they're dealing with as they trade.

I have to say also I always bumped this kind of thread but I guess, I still see it interesting to answer. I think the moment you decide to enter trading, you have known already that handling emotions is crucial in trading, otherwise you will always end up with a negative outcome. And the only thing I did when I’m in at loss, I stopped trading and take a break. For me, it’s important not to rush in making profits in trading, so that it will not come to a point that you destroy your  mental and emotional state just to recover your losses and chase bigger profits when trading.

The first rule should be to step away for a while before you make an emotional decision! Let your emotions breathe, feel your feelings, and return to trading with a fresh mind so that you don't make impulsive, FOMO-based decisions. Trading is not easy and I recommend turning to a licensed trading bot (r100k) for new traders. It gives you the opportunity to sit back and does all the work for you. I have 162% profits today because of this method.

Lack of emotional control makes you more prone to overtrading. So as much as possible, learn to handle your emotions first so you won’t push yourself into overtrading. And at the same time, don’t trade using leverage, it will only heighten the risk to lose, most especially if you are still new in the trading market.

Trading is a risky and dangerous thing. This is why people should not rush into trading if they are not knowledgeable and skilled enough, otherwise they will only trade in search for quick profits, when in reality trading does not magic like that, as it should be dealt seriously and skillfully.

The truth is that no matter what control or discipline we do in trading in order not to lose our cool it is inevitable because we are just human being, we could experience burst of emotion or because of our current emotion we sometimes does decision that is lack on thinking or logical thinking and it is prone to heppen in trading, we know how frustrating trading can be, one lose trade can throw us and become too emotional, but it cant be helped as no matter how firm is your controm and discipline you cannot sometimes control your emotion because you need it in order to not be burn out, what I'm doing when I lose in trade is to accept the lose and the emotional effect, so instead of trading again and as we know might affect my decision making when emrotional then I will divert my attention to something or let the anger and frustration out in that way I can be calm in a short period of time. So you just need to handle your emotions and know how to solve them.

Set stop loss.

That's how you will control your emotions on an instant. Because if you can't go on and do good with your trade. That's going to be your initiator and reminder that you should stop and don't go further.

It's a good way to control your trades and not just your emotions and that will stop your greediness and false hopes that a trade that you're likely monitoring is good but it turns out that you need to face the reality that you have to stop.

Handling emotions doesn't only depend on the experience that you have because you can learn how to handle emotions when you're learning how to trade, every trader that wants to succeed in trading needs to know how to handle their emotions or they'll get overpowered by their emotions and they can't make right decisions when trading. Every trader that is trading have to know that they'll lose at times and trading doesn't have to do with winning every trade that you open. What make you a good trader is the number of wins you're getting therefore when you lose don't think it's the end of your discipline to start misbehaving and doing things like someone that isn't informed on things that are right to do when trading and things that are wrong. If you can't handle your emotions after losing, just stop trading for time.

One of the ways to handle emotions is to go and leave trading alone after a bad lose maybe for couples of days for one to get themselves. Trading van be rewarding and also devastating especially when the opposite thing we are expecting finally occurs.
It is good we always relax and make plans so that we can benefit from the trading. Trading is not always about looking the market charts but also having a time to relax and have fun forgetting about anything trading.  We need to have time for ourselves as traders.

No one is capable enough to make such consistent trading without facing some inevitable losses. Even professional traders still lose in trading, so how much more for those who are still learning the process. Now if this happens, don’t resort into overtrading just to keep the trading urge, but make time to relax yourself from trading. This is the only effective way not to fall on mental health issues because of consistent losing. Manage your trades, as well as your emotions when trading. When you have high emotions, stay away from trading in order to control your losses if ever.

4 simple tips yet effective.
Traders especially those traders who are just starting must really practice this. Because if you want to be profitable and stay on the market for a long time, you need to adapt this.
Always have control, control in your emotion, control in trading like how much your trade size and leverage.

You know when the market is bullish it is the most fun time to trade, especially in spot and I experienced that a few years ago, where continuing to trade without having time to relax, and trading too much will not only have a bad impact on your body's health but also your mind because we always think about that and what is no less bad is that traders are not aware that the market is starting to move in the opposite direction so that they end up getting trapped and starting to experience losses.
Trade with a definite schedule and don't add to it even though we see the market is very active and can make us profit more quickly, because trading too much is also a form of greed that will lead traders to losses.

How to handle emotions when you lose during trading. Basically, you already said it before and that all is true in my opinion, but I want to mention one thing do not trade using leverage hahaha I mean leverage trading looks delicious but it comes with greater risk I mean crypto itself is already high risk and if you trading with leverage meaning you double the risk IMO.

Do not overtrade and keep money management tight, if you trade spot only overtrade is unlikely to happen since you put Entry Take profit, and stop loss and  yo go not to watch and stick to the monitor all day long at least this happen to me. FInaly if you still like using leverage trading know when to take profit and know when to stop

First is that you can trade spot and overtrade. If you do not want to trade more than necessary, it comes from how discipline you are in trading and how you are not greedy.

Second is that you can decide not to use TP and SL in spot. There is also TP and SL in future trading.

Trading is not that easy.  To do trading you have to have sharp intelligence.  And emotions must be controlled.  One can never be too greedy when it comes to trading.  Loss in trading is guaranteed if you trade multiple times.  Basic rules of trading should always be kept in mind.  Trading requires both psychology and technical analysis.  And both have to be mastered and self-control learned.  If you have more leverage, you have to lose your trading position.  Moreover, those who are good at trading have to follow them constantly.  But trading is not that easy, it takes a lot of effort to master it, and it is not that you will get much profit from trading in the beginning.

Easiest way to minimize stress and have tempered emotions is to not invest more than you wouldn't mind throwing into a fire pit.

Yes, this is more effective and i could say that it would really be better that you should really be that something should be followed or that kind of trait on which whenever you do be able to encounter up something then
you could really be able to easily adjust accordingly and would really be finding up different variations on which you could really be able to make yourself that be versatile basing up into the condition that you are into.
Handling out emotion is never been that simple, it is really just that would really be basing up into someones level of experience on which this would really be able to determine whether you are really that be able to handle out such condition or you would really be that making yourself be versatile.

Although it wont really be that so simple but its not impossible. Control would really be that so important because we do know that this is something that would really be leading
up into this kind of different decisions that you do need to take up.

Yes trading is a very difficult task for trading we have to control our emotions and then we can succeed in trading. We should never take wrong decisions while trading. If we don't make wrong decisions we will face big losses. So I think  Those who want to start trading in a new state, if they start trading from the beginning with good experience about trading, then they can do good things in the future. No one can ever guarantee that he will always make a profit, sometimes he will gain and sometimes he will lose.  There will be possibilities and we have to accept them.

exactly the only thing that make difference between veteran trades and newbie trades is actually just emotional management and experience in reading the market and that it, even though some newbie can be really talented or already knowledgeable with reading market pattern, if they just fail in managing their own emotion, the trade could be disastrous, the result of impulsive trade is always lose streak and so on, people also seem to fail to realize that if someone experience lose streak doesn't mean they gonna win the next trade, like in future, the market could be behaving opposite of your thinking the whole day.

just relax a bit, try to clear that mind by doing something else, maybe its not a good day but tomorrow maybe a good day so don't get too fixated into trading, this kind of behavious as I've seen from veteran trader and investors are really what sets them apart from the average people, a veteran investor or trader can lose millions and just move on the next minutes.

Things you do need to consider;

1. Risk management
2. Emotion management
3. Psychology control

You would really be needing to consider these things first but its true that one of the most hardest thing that you would really be needing up to control because once
emotions cant really be controlled then this is something that you would really be needing to focus on because if you dont then it would really be making out
that huge effect specially when you do make trades.

It might not be simple but its not impossible. It would really be just that matter on how well you do able to gain up experience because those real engagement or experience
that you would be able to encounter are the things that would really be making you much more better as the time would be passing by.

This is often suggested but it can be hardly followed by most traders, and the reason is simple, if you want to obtain more profits with the same amount of effort, you will have to increase the capital you put at risk, and since very few people have the money to spare to trade the markets and be completely unaffected in the case they lost that money, it is easy to understand why when people lose some money, they get overemotional about it and they cannot deal with the losses they got when trading the markets.

trading is not gambling why can't you hope?
when you can trade, there should be great hope for profit. and even if there is a loss, a professional trader should be able to minimize the loss.
If you don't expect to make a profit, why trade? although I know the market in trading is difficult to predict accurately. but at least when you have the skills, you have the confidence to profit.

Honestly, it was hard to manage our emotions and keep it low when we already overthought that all of the trade calls would be closed into profit.
Our minds take control of everything we do and once it is already poisoned by our greed and too much market assumptions, it is certainly difficult to accept losses.

Of course, we can solve and help this issue if we stop behaving like we are perfect.
We can deal with our emotions if we know how to accept losses and understand the nature of the market. We can't change the volatility of the market, therefore, we have to always keep in mind that losing is not a terrible thing that may happen to us but it is an ordinary thing in a trader's life.

That is a good summary of things people should consider when they are faced with losing positions. In my opinion the best advice is to stay rational as much as possible and to remind us of our long-term goals. Short term loses can seem devastating, but when we remind us that we are in it for the long run it won't seem as terrible. Being faced with falling prices is part of the game and we need to learn to live with them. It always helps to identify why our trades are falling and if we need to react quickly. Bad developments in our projects is something we can avoid, whereas a general market down turn will be harder avoided.

people who overtrade are just looking for ways to recover what they lost while trading it might be risky to do that but what if they get lucky and recover everything? I know that it won't always work, but if you have the heart to take such a risk, then go ahead. knowledge is very important in trading. a lot of people do not know how to make a profit, stop loss, or use leverage, which is why they always say to take learning seriously


if it is spot, it is very easy to spot trade, and even when you are disciplined, you will always want to try new things once in a while That is why you see sometimes people will overtrade the same thing happens in gambling, and I would not say that is greed, you just want to make additional money, and everyone has the kind of strategy they have adopted when they trade and that is why some don't use stop loss or even TP, depending on the individual.

When you are on the losing track there are few things you can consider doing such as

• Avoid looking into the price chart more often
• Try to stop day trading until you feel you are in profits
• Taking a break can be a good choice to regain mental strength back
• Try adjusting your strategies according to the market trends

Doing overtrade is also tiring, to be honest, dude. Of course, it's a combination of our thinking when analysing the graph using indicators that you know how to use to determine the direction of the value in the market.

So when you come to being emotional, you should still try to think calmly, take a deep breath, then inhale and exhale just to refresh your mind. That's what I do when I get annoyed while trading, and it's effective for me.

No trader can control his or her emotions 100%. There are days we feel sad over our losses and there are days we get excited because of the profits we have made. So, getting emotional is normal as a trader but it only becomes a problem when we allow our emotions go out of hand to the extent of controlling our actions. Traders need to really understand that as far as trading is concerned, losses are bound to occur,  so their is no point feeling guilty and blaming oneself over losses that occurred, such acts will only escalate things and cause more harm. Rather, if a trader feels like his mistakes caused his loss, he should learn from such mistake and upgrade his skill. Getting losses is not a death sentence, upgrade yourself and enjoy the world of trading.

Too much of everything is bad, and this is what some traders have failed to understand up until now, especially newbie traders, who believe that the more they trade, the more money they will make, which is not true. Even professionals don't always enter the market to trade, and I can say that too much of trading can even cause some to go broke because if a trader is losing too much and not making money from their trading, I am sure the trader will not


very important man. whether investment or trading shit coins is never an option they always give bad results because we often use them on what they don't worth it. However, after using too much leverage there is also emotional control and greed these two things are also another things that many traders have failed to come over them and that is why even with skill and knowledge you will see trader is still having too much losses.

Adding 5: rememeber to set stop losses will help you relax

And i have spoken about this before, but i feel i need to repeat myself as those comments get buried after threads die:

I wouldn't ever trade angry, and mindfullness etc are good ways to approach dealing with feelings, i agree with that. But some times i see people assuming that handling bad emotions is same thing as suppressing them or ignoring them. Which is the worst way to deal with them. And focusing on rationality is easier said than done, because our brains don't operate without feelings. They are part of the process even when it comes to rational thinking. And being aware of how you feel is really important, as other people who are all in or out of crypto will be feeling same fomo or fear as you would, and that helps you predict their moves. You don't have to act on how you feel, but lots of others will, and more you wait to act, less likely you are in ahead of the pack.

Of course, overcoming emotions when you experience a loss in one of your trading sessions is to go back to remembering about the basic understanding of the trading world itself where trading is not a place that will only give you profits but the possibility of loss is also a sure thing to happen or simply whatever the place is if it can give you profit opportunities then there will always be possible risks behind everything.

I understand that it is not as easy as turning your palm, but this is what is needed when you are involved in the world of trading where you must understand as a whole about all the possibilities that exist in the world of trading, not only want to get the benefits but we must also pay attention to other aspects that are no less important in the world of trading, namely understanding and preparing the mentality of a responsible trader in the sense of being able to accept the fact of loss. Disappointment and resentment will always be there because after all, losing money is a situation that no one wants in any case but this is the world of trading, therefore from the beginning it is not enough if we only have the right strategy and way to trade because risk management, especially mental and psychological readiness is also really necessary so that you can minimize emotions due to losses.

That’s right. Emotions are inevitable, so it will always comes out no matter how we keep trying to control it. And that’s normal for us traders. However, majority of newbie traders are said to trade following their emotions and satisfy them, not realizing that it would only lead them to make undesirable trades which would always end up in losses.

Emotions are the best enemy in trading. So if you think you are feeling high emotions, just learn to take a break from trading right away. That’s the best way so you can avoid or limit your losses in trading. Just return to trading if you think your emotions are already stable.

If you feel your heart is racing, pause for a bit and contemplate on what's happening with your trades. Re-orient yourself, re-check your goals. If you believe you need to stop, then, stop. Don't push yourself into something you are not ready for.

Losses will always be there, even if you claim that you are an expert of this activity. You can't always guarantee that you will gain from your trades. As time goes by, you will learn more tricks and so you can use it to enhance your skills in trading.

If you are embarking on the journey to the trading world ,you need to have a set of rules to protect or guide yourself in the market in such a situation like incurring loses or having a losing streak. As a trader you will definitely encounter a bad trading day quite for sure, and this is the hard truth about the market, and if you don't have pre-plans to navigate your way out, the market will mess up with you. What I do when I encounter loses, is taking a break after I must have tried two or three trades and if the market hit back at me ,then I call it day, and close my system, because the moment you want to try to recover your loses, it's now a revenge trading and if you are not professional trader, you will do yourself more harm than good .

It is rude to directly call trading gambling. I dont know so many persons do this. Trading is way typical from gambling. The difference is one depends on luck while the other depends on skill. You can see someone who claim or calls himself a professional trader but you there is no one who claims that he is a professional gambler and gambling cannot be a professional job or skill in general.

Trading has steps which means failing to follow these steps one after the other when learning would keep the trader at a high risk. The emotions that comes when a trader loses is something that is being learned or praticsed. I know how it feels to lose big amount of money when trading but this is where the experience comes in.

I agree and this is true but self-awareness and discipline can make you control your emotions. While being at the peak of your trades might give you some emotional heads up, that's also hard for someone to control his/herself with the trades they do because if their trades have been losing ever since, that's the hardest part. To recover and to control yourself whether you'd push for more because that is triggering you to trade more so that you can win your losses back.

It becomes very difficult to control emotions while trading when money is lost in trading. Although it becomes very difficult to control emotions, emotions must be controlled because if emotions are not controlled, they can cause physical and mental damage. I am with the current spot trading even though I am in the spot trading platform but I am in a lot of losses in my trading. When I was trading I had a lot of profit on my trading for some time I became extra greedy to make more profit so I didn't sell my trading. I am currently in huge losses in my trading due to being overly greedy. When I look at trading I feel very helpless because if I had not been so greedy I might not have been in the losses now. But I don't mind because being patient and learning some aspects of trading from here will benefit me a lot.

No man can show that he has succeeded in all trades. I have noticed that new traders and those with very little money tend to get emotional while trading at some point. They start trading with all their money and due to lack of experience they lose it all and get emotional at the initial stage. Another thing I have noticed is that those who lose all their money in order to gain more income by trading also become very emotional. Of course you won't win them all by trading. The most important thing to trade is patience and greed. If you can control greed and patience then you can get success, and if there is deficiency then you are going to lose all your money very soon.

Trading could really be called gambling on the time that you would really be treating it as a gambling on which you would really be making positions without any basis on which this is something not that recommended
if you are really that dealing with trading. Emotions would really be your primary enemy when dealing up with trading or dealing with unpredictable market on which you would really be needing that extreme research
and making out those analysis on which it do give out somehow on where prices could actually go. Although it might not that be precise ex. Technical indicators but this kind of analysis is something that would
really be helpful and relevant for you to deal up with the market. It is really just that there are individuals who are really not that serious on taking this trading path.

They would really be neither be that pursuing on making themselves progress or would really be completely be that stopping or quitting because they cant just be able to bare up with the risks.

There isn't really any reason to feel terrible after a loss, the best way to control your emotions would be realizing that you are not doing anything that's different than others, you are doing exactly what you could be doing, which is losing.

The crypto market, just like any other market, can't give you full profits, there is no possible way that people would have 100% trade prediction rate, you need to realize that everyone loses money. When you do realize that, you will realize that whatever amount you lost, that's fine, and you should move on. This doesn't matter do not learn from it and ignore it, it means that check your mistake, see where you did wrong and you will be able to do better in the end after a while.

What you wrote as ways to handle emotion "during trading" does not portray the traders trading but general parts of the dos and don'ts of traders even before trading. If it were to be during trading indeed, the only antidote is for the trader to take a break immediately. Such a trader can now continue to ponder what happened and how to deal with them in subsequent trading. But as a whole, I can deduce that you are referring to what traders can do to avoid emotions (before trading), and the only solutions I know are discipline and determination, nothing else. Discipline is always an anti-emotion anywhere, that's what I always preach that traders should possess.

While the determination to be disciplined should follow so that the will and the inner self will work together to fulfil the trader's desire on this subject. This simple psychology has ever been helpful and I only trade the time I want to and do exactly what I planned to do due to that.

This is a very good statement, and like I always say, it is what you think you can't achieve that you will not achieve, but if you believe you can do it, you will do it. Emotion is psychological, which requires psychological solutions, but we need the determination to actualize it. That determination is what most traders lack. Once you possess that in addition to discipline, then your case is settled regarding emotion. But also, one must observe some good trading rules like investing the amount that one can afford to lose, trade the right time and for the right purposes, trade with the appropriate risks and management among others.

Knowing how to control emotions while trading can prove to be the difference between success and failure. Your mental state has a significant impact on the decisions you make , particular if you are new to trading, and keep a calm demeanor is important for consistent trading. We can handle emotions when we lose during trading through the following:
1. Accept responsibility. Don't hide from the loss or blame someone else or the market for the position you put yourself in.
2. Review your position sizing
3. Analyse each loss
4. Use a stop - loss level
5. Stop listening to market news
6. Stop all social media reading and commentary
7. Do not follow any guru who is predicting or recommending
8. Do not listen to your trading buddies or friends who trade
9. Make sure you are not trying to prove yourself to anyone - parents, spouse, siblings, friends, co-workers or whomever. This is primary emotional trigger for anyone.
10. Do not trade in your family room or where you can be easily distracted.
11. Create personal rules
12. Trade the right market conditions
13. Lower your trade size
14. Establish a trading plan and trading journal
15. Relax: if you are relaxed and enjoy trading, you will be better equipped to respond rationally in all market conditions.
Note: Good trading and investing are all about managing risk. If you can't emotionally handle the risk you are taking, then STOP. If you can't see far enough ahead to observe the consequences of your actions, then trading is not for you.

I think choosing to trade more when you are experiencing losses in the hope that you will be able to make back the money you have lost is certainly not the right choice, because the more we trade, the more I think we will be unable to control ourselves and the decisions we make. trading will be unprofitable and we will incur a lot of losses and it would be better for us to stop trading and check the mistakes we made so that we can learn and correct them so that when we try to trade again we will be able to do well and also be able to make a profit from the trade.

Controlling emotions when trading is very important because when someone cannot control their emotions they of course cannot make the right decisions on trading and also they do not analyze well before deciding to trade so that they can trade well and can make a profit on trading.

Feeling mad when we lose it is quite normal but getting our temper too high is not good anymore and it should be managed before it affects our mental health and decision-making. It is a normal experience for us traders but if we want to succeed, we also have to control our emotions to least possible we can do. That is why I encourage traders not to take this seriously, especially beginners because the more we think it always, the more possibility we can't move on. It is very important we know how to deal with our emotions, it can't be instant but at least, we worked on it to make it better and controllable.

Regarding the second point regarding leverage, this is a vital thing, the greater the leverage, the greater the risk of loss. Coupled with the use of large margins. This is also very risky. When it comes to futures trading or margin trading, the greater the leverage and margin will increase the risk of loss, but if we talk about profits, the greater the leverage and margin, the greater the profits we will get.
Implementing SL is very helpful in minimizing losses. And the strategy in entering the market is also very influential where we decide to place a position in the price range. If we carry out analysis haphazardly and enter positions haphazardly and blindly to trends, I am sure this can also result in continuous losses.

some people are too fixated on their losses they forget the bigger picture where they could regain their lose in the future there's always opportunity but for some people when they lose they already think themselves being doomed from that trade and get impulsive and make one of the worst decision ever to go all in to their trade to compensate previous loss thinking it'd be a completey table turning moment for them but when reality hits that for example they anticipate the market to pump after steep dump but turns out it just going steeper they they lost all the money that they used for all in.

that what i call with bad decision in trading some people are just get too influenced with their emotion not knowing whats best for them for anyone that trades out there if you suffer loses streak, relax, maybe you will get what you want tomorrow, market trend change, you can leverage and take advantage of it.

These points are actually good points because if they are very well adhere to, then most definitely the trader would be able to make some good profits off their trades but then if they eventually get to do otherwise the effects will be most definitely adverse on them but then this isn't a guarantee for profitable trading as others too may aswell have their own ways that will still suit them and they will still be profitable because every trader has got their peculiarity and unique style that fits their own style of trading and they will still be profitable regardless of their methods.

Placing high hopes on trades could aswell include trying to bring your problems to the market because that will never help you as you would definitely not trade in the right frame of mind and yet become prone to trading with hurriedly made decisions which will typically end up ruining your trading abilities but if you are relaxed trading you will most definitely trade better.

We can control our emotions, but not really 100%, especially in things that we don't expect to happen often. Our adrenalin suddenly changes in such situations. So it is important for us traders to have control over ourselves while conducting trading activity on an exchange.

And the only thing that is often carried by their emotions is that they cannot control it when there is a sudden fall in the coins that we hold as holders.

I agree with you many times in trading we can't control our emotions many times we get emotional. If we decide not to control our emotions then we don't get much success in trading so controlling our emotions is very important. Big traders lose control of emotions. When it comes to trading, we must have enough knowledge about the trade. If we don't gain enough knowledge about the trade, how can we trade? Newbies must first gain enough knowledge about the trade. have to do  In the case of trade, we should always have a long-term plan. If we keep a long-term plan and can trade patiently by checking the market, we can definitely get success through this trade.

Look the best way to control your emotions is to make up your mind that trading is only a side income and you can't be completely dependent on it. I know some people will say that it's a full time opportunity blah blah. It can be true but it brings a lot of stress with It if we go with it as a solo option for earning.

You have to make sure that you only invest the amount that is spared and not needed for a long time. If that money is gone it shouldn't affect your life. Yet you'll be a little bit affected by the loss and that's natural to try to control your nerves. When you go through these types of situations spend time with your loved ones who will love you no matter what your financial conditions are you'll definitely feel better.

Trading only becomes stressful and frustrating when you trade using your own hard-earned funds that only end up with losses. That will really make you sick with trading, most especially if you made it as your main source of income, when in reality it shouldn’t be due to its high risk and highly unpredictable outcome. So the best solution is probably never trade if you think the market condition is not suitable to trade, and trade only as your side hustle, so that losses might still be bearable since you’re not trading for survival, but just for extra income.

Actually and basically having the ability to control yourself and emotions is always recommended because this will be useful for many things in your life and not just in the world of trading which as we know that something that is done based on emotions will always lead us to situations that are ultimately much worse, such as when you experience problems in life which instead of solving problems but instead add problems because you make decisions based on emotions.

Especially in the involvement of trading where trading is a profession that strongly involves money as capital to gain profits and the possibility of loss as a risk that can never be avoided completely. So of course a trader is required and demanded to have control over himself and his emotions because this is a profession that always requires making the right decisions to be able to gain profits, while on the other hand when you are experiencing emotions then obviously it is very unlikely for you to be able to make the right decisions in the midst of emotions that are dominating which in the end in some cases some traders even suffer a considerable amount of losses.

This is one of the major reason why most traders become emotional due to over trading and not sparing time for other things, these set of people don't take their eyes off the market even when the market isn't favourable but yet they will always want to diverse means to maneuver but yet at the end of the day, they keep losing and become so emotionally attached to their trading behaviours

Controlling emotions is not an easy task but to some extent we can hide our emotions in order to avoid losses in our life. Emotions play an adverse rule if we don't are not satisfied with our profit and wish for more so I think once we accept our little profit then we will not decide wrong that will put adverse effects on our future.

If we are long term holders then sudden changes can make our decision altered but we have to think about target instead of wasting time on useless thoughts. Thinking all the time about market changes can also be possible for putting you in greed or fear therefore keep control your emotions while you see that market is fluctuating more.

You what to handle your emotion when you lose trade? It is very simple and you don't have to worry yourself too much about it.
The first thing to do is to get out of the house, maybe to a restaurant or a reserve place and ho get some food and drinks.
You can even call your friends or love one to join you. Eat good food and have funs with people around you to ease the emotion that is troubling. After that you can go home because you must be tired by then, you can on TV and watch your favorite program or just go to bed. By the time you wake up the second day, you will feel alright.

If someone is doing overtrading, it may not have enough time to do technical analysis about the coin it wants to trade. If not because of eagerness to make quick money, why would someone be doing overtrading, when managing even one trading is not easy due to the risk trading involves? If someone involved itself by doing overtrading, it may likely to lose even if the person is a good trader, as the person is just trading to put themselves in a position of losing money in trading.


Traders are always selective about the coin they want to trade, so whenever a trader does technical analysis, it will definitely know whether it is shit coins promising or not, traders can't really avoid all shit coins because many of them make good profit from there but the truth is that when trading shitcoin, I will advise not to trade with a huge amount of money.

Dont make yourself that too rush when making up a trading position on which we know that this is something that cant really be done so easily because we are dealing with an unpredictable market on which there's no way
that you could really be able to make positions that too easy. Come to think that everything is random and since we are just humans then emotions would really be normally be kicking, it would really be just that a matter of self control and handling on such condition. This is why it would really be better that you do really know on what you are doing and loses is really that very normal and this is something that needs up to have that kind of control and moderation because if you do miss it out or simply you do become that impulsive then it would really mess up your trading plans and analysis entirely.

One of the best things that you should do is to be versatile and self acceptance because if you do find yourself that too highly reacting into various situations then you cant really be able to think up well.

The reason is always about money or to make money faster and bigger so they trade in an excessive way, as in general that indeed all traders have the goal of making a profit, but all the results will be changed if you do it the wrong way or not right like treating trading activities in an excessive way which in any case something that is done in excess usually produces something bad.

After all trading always requires calmness in terms of decision making, but when you overdo it then yes obviously there is a big possibility that in the end instead of making a profit you end up with a lot of losses. Trading is difficult and sometimes when we spend too much time in the market then it is usually very easy for us to lose consciousness over time because of seeing market conditions that always seem to be a favorable moment which actually happens because your concentration and focus have begun to break down due to being there for too long which ends up with mistakes in decision making, this is the reason why we are advised to apply profit targets and loss limits, so that we don't stay in the market for too long.

Let’s just accept the fact that if you decide to trade, you should set some limits on your emotions. Emotions are part of a human behavior, without it, you will never be called a normal human being. However, if you can control or lessen your emotions as much as possible, most especially in a risky activity like trading, then you should stick to it. Otherwise, if you fail to control your emotions consistently and tolerate that thinking, you will never be a good and productive trader in the future.

Its certain that if you ended up with unbearable losses, you will eventually become highly affected and emotional on that. Everyone knows that. But I believe if you stick to your trading plan, and trade only on such amount that you are comfortable to lose, then losing in trading might never be a big issue for you.

Also, you were right then. Don’t rely in trading for your income completely. You will only get hurt and frustrated if your expectations weren’t met, so avoid that kind of mindset.

Someone with enough knowledge about the market and the ups and downs this path of trading can have would never leave the market due to losses they incur in the initial stage because they would know these things happen when you get into a financial market while having no previous experience with such things. Such people will keep learning and improving over time so that they can correct the mistakes they have previously made to avoid more losses.

Only people who lack knowledge about trading and the market will leave the market after incurring losses in the initial stage because they don't know it's normal and even experts have to face losses in certain market situations so there is nothing to worry about this and they need to keep patience and keep learning.

Crypto trading can be boring at some point and the major reason you believe leverage trading is delicious is because of the beautiful reward it involves. Just as you have said if we judge the leverage based on the risk it entails it's never a good form of trading and I always advise people not to partake in it.


The best way to not overtrade is to take a break from crypto trading and in some cases, it also helps with money management for those that can't control their emotion.

When it comes to trading, you must learn to control your emotions. If we don't have full control over our emotions then we will definitely get hurt by trading. For example, we take a trade and after taking the trade, the market temporarily dumps a bit and that dumping lasts for a while, then if we get excited and think with our emotions instead of thinking with our conscience, we sell our coins at a loss at that time, but there We had a big loss.But at that time if we wait for some time without getting overly excited and wait for the good condition of the market then the money that we have faced will recover again when the market is in that condition. This happened to me a lot but I was patient during that time and I waited for some profit. Maybe it is very difficult and very challenging but it is much better to accept this challenge than to lose your money.

What other money do you want to use than your own hard-earned money? That of others like FTX? Or do you want to borrow it via loan?

Either way, the pain is big anyway. With your own hard-earned money, you're still best off. Because the money is "just" gone. With the second and third (through fraud or loan), you could even go to jail.
Losing money is always hard to accept, so you should only use what you can lose without running yourself ragged.

Trading most times doesn't work the way we think of and shouldn't be followed that way otherwise losing is inevitable, but when trading and develop some special time to attempt to other things like some activities then it would enable you know how to channel your trading. This could be giving some hours, be it 3 to 6 hours when dedicated to trading after which it would enable you to have another nice market setup to trade than constantly remaining on trade for 24hrs to me I don't see any difference on how much to be made on a 24hrs trading standby irrespective of the trading type.

For you not to experience the loss so long, just refer yourself to some traders that lose huge amount of money that is bigger than your own loss and they are still trading without worry, I believe the moment you begin to reason that way, you will be free from the emotion that will make you to give up on trading.

There are some traders that will use that period to visit their friends that used to discuss about football and some clubs, and the emotion will leave and they will no longer think of the money they lose in their trading than to start thinking how to trade to improve.
  Anytime such emotion is coming to me when I lose in trading, I will use this simple strategy to quench the emotion by playing my favorite music through out the day to ensure the emotion disappear from me.

Of all the suggestions you listed, thay in quote should be first among them. You don't settle an emotional problem with emotion. You come intentional with facts to confront reality. This is what happens when profitable traders have losing streaks and decide to stay away from trades just so they can go back and analyse every step that earned them money and those steps that lost them money. Sadly, amateur traders and trader–wannabes find this simple fact incomprehensible. They want to be seen trading always to be able to adorn that garb of that they're trading. Wrong mindset.

1] Do not overtrade: In trading some times you may get lucky to be profiting in your trade in that case do you stop trading or you continue trading to make profit, if the answer is to make more profit, I think there's nothing bad if yo you grab the opportunity tou have ob your lucky dsy to make profit but do not forget to apply stoploss when you trade. On the issues of being emotional when you lose in a trading, the best thing is to look for something that will make you happy even though you will still think about your losses but moving out of your environment to a different place to cool off will not be bad and going out to stay with friends will also help to reduce the emotional damage that may be incured as a result of the loss.

Too much of everything is bad, and that is why a trader should not overtrade, because he will be more prone to losses than profit. Emotions are also something very important for one to know how to control so that it will save you from losses.

Only use the amount of money that you can afford to lose when you are learning how to trade, and do not have your own trading strategy, so that you don't regret your actions. This is because trading is very risky, and when we enter the market, it is something different that we see from what we expected.

Or simply everything which is really that too much is really that dangerous and this is why it would really be that relevant that you should really be having that kind of moderation on everything.
There would really be tons of factors on which it could really affect out in overall effects on your trade. If you arent that good on handling out your emotions then you would really be finding yourself
always impulsive on whatever the price it would really be showing on specially if you are that someone whose still that lacking of experience towards market then you do really have this kind of
reaction on the time that it do happens. Experience would be something that could make you tough on the time that you do make out some trades. Emotion is something that
could stir up your overall analysis that you had set out earlier and if you dont have that good control then expect that this one would really likely to happen.

To be honest, there are still quite a lot of other things that can be added, such as trading when you are mentally and mentally prepared, not sick, using cold funds or not related to anything and don't trade in futures or binary options, trading will be very triggering. excessive emotions due to greed and fear will very easily arise in such trading and the last thing is to trade on spot trading and control your greed, I really believe your emotions will be more controlled if you can do that, this is quite simple and not important but in my opinion this can be included as a reference for preventing emotional turmoil in trade.

Let's stop it from here. Many traders might think that this isn't important but it's truly important to trade when you're emotionally okay.
This is the same with gambling that you should do it when you're prepared and mentally okay. Because if not, you're wasting money.
You'll be dealing with losses and that's going to be an easy thing for you that you'll just accept.

Doing trading in a good mental condition will certainly enable us to decide on something that can be profitable in trading and this is very difficult for us to do when our mental condition is not in good condition and in gambling it will be very detrimental if we bet with an emotional state and it will be very detrimental if we bet not based on the analysis we do because we will lose money and not be able to win the bets we play, but if they cannot accept the losses they get, of course this will make them continue to try to trade, but they will continue to do it with emotions that make them continue to experience losses.

Whether we are traders or not, sometimes we get emotional after we lose money and that could make us keep thinking over and over again without knowing how together over it. It is very important we look for ways to get things done so we don't just do things that would affect t us continually. It is good we look for things to involve oneself so that the emotion will not have long effect on us. The later effect of losing funds especially when it's not our fund can keep us on our knees if we don't know the remedy.

In short, trading is not just about buying and selling and not just about the indicators and you have to master everything in order for you to succeed and that’s why it will take years before you can finally say that trading works. This is a long journey and losses are normal along the way, if you know how to handle things you can stay longer and time comes that you will win more.

Actually in any case losing money is a situation that is not liked by everyone so it is natural that for example you are emotional, but what we must understand is that this is the world of trading where when you can make a profit then on the other hand you are also very likely to experience a loss, it is always about two things, namely for or loss where profit is an opportunity while loss is a certainty. But I am sure that if you understand the overall risks that exist in the world of trading then I think you will not experience too much emotion due to losses, and this is why all traders are advised to have a strong mental and psychological because the market will not always be in your favor.

Obviously having a correct understanding of the concept of trading will make you have the ability to accept the fact of loss because you already know that trading is about the possibility of profit or the possibility of loss, meaning that what is needed here is the correct understanding and responsibility for the decisions you have made because by having these two aspects then I think it is less likely for you to chase something that has been lost blindly, accept all risks and continue the session with a calm psychology along with the knowledge you have will be able to increase your chances of reaching the recovery phase.

One of the things that makes traders to go so emotional is when they use a big amount of money to trade. Greed has always been the reason why people many traders trade with them amount that they can't afford to lose thinking thst they will be able to make profit so fast and they end up losing good amount of money because their understanding about trading is not good enough.  The most important thing that traders don't need to take for granted is to know the right amount which is needed for trading.

A lot of traders go into trading to trade with the amount that they can't afford to lose and doing this always makes one to be emotional when money is lose in trading .

Op all the factors you have listed here are good ones but I will add on to the list which is greediness. When you are trading don't be greedy because greediness will make you to lose all your funds plus the capital and the small profit you have gotten. They said experience is the best teacher. I learned my lesson in my first trading days. I deposited the money in the trading account and I make small profit of $20 and instead of me to apply your number I was thinking to had more profit and suddenly before I knew everything just disappeared. And I lost everything in the process of trading.

So when trading be conscious of the movement and stopped at the time when you have made profit even if it is small. And when lost in the process of trading don't panic calm down and apply the last option to be over the emotion.

Everything you say here is correct, and the number 4 is the best thing that all the traders in this field of crypto trading can do, in fact, so that we can do the trading activity we are
doing in the field correctly. This is actually true. And it's good to make it a habit too.

Because if we can't manage trading correctly, our emotions will swallow us up and put us in a state of lack of control over ourselves, which can lead to bad results in the end.

If you are trading or if you are tat here you drink juice to control your emotions because if you can't control miscal we are more likely.  If I invest myself or if I do my own chatting, it is not right if I eat loss, if I don't understand the market after getting it, I don't understand the market.  There are few trains in a row and all of them are launched. In that case, I could not control my emotions.  But if you can control emotions, I myself control emotions with difficulty, I do not trade more than 2 hours a day.  Whether it's two gains or losses, I never have more than two trades because it's better to take two and make a profit.

It is up to you to know exactly what to do in trading as there is always something new to learn every day. And you'll have many difficulties even in doing if you're not psychologically ready. since you won't even be able to focus on the market analysis. You really must focus all of your attention on this. Spot is secure, and when it comes to greed people's main issue will they listen? Although trading futures is dangerous, if you're lucky, you could profit from it. However, avoid doing it while you're not feeling well because, despite the precautions, it is still too dangerous, and you could be enticed to investigate further. Even though everyone wants money, we must exercise caution in our decisions. Reduce greed and focus on learning more. Then you do not need to be that greedy so have aim of what you want to archive.

People come up on a idea that they can easily get a good stretch on their capital especially if they put all their money on the trades they made. And sometimes they won but  also sometimes they fail that's why we can see them keep coming back to do this actions since they know that there's something to expect here.

If people want to avoid more bigger problems then maybe they should start eliminate the fear in them and go to the right person that can teach them on how they can possibly teach to became a pro. Traders should not go beyond on their capacity like they only trade what they can afford to lose at that time, since for sure their experience towards trading is satisfying especially if they develop some useful attitude that can help them to do good trades..

finding someone who can teach them to trade is a good move. it would even be better to do so before they start or try trading on their own. We know that sometimes there are people who try first because they are curious. but after they fail they look for someone to teach them better. Experience always provides valuable lessons. but it depends on the trader himself, whether he succeeds in taking lessons or not. If it doesn't work, maybe what happens is that you fall into the same hole several times.

sometime we don't even realize that we already lost control over all the decision we've made due to our emotion sometime our emotion just get the best of us thats why I think personally the best advice would be just relax and calm down and then stop trading when we are having series of lose.

its no point keeping up when we are keep on losing becasue if we just keep continuing eventually we gonna lose all our money.
trading requires calm and peace state of mind, can't just randomly trade and win when we are so angry because the series of lose that we have experienced earlier.
hopes the newbies out there know that overtrading is a thing too.

Besides, it is hard to be good when you are already stressed about thinking about your losses. It was hard to accept defeat when we already assumed that we gonna earn some profit. And much more difficult to control our emotions when we don't calm ourselves. Indeed, controlling our emotions is very important in trading as this will trigger the worst-case scenario. Losing control of our emotions has no good results but instead, this could be the reason for more losses and failures. So instead of chasing our losses, I think taking time to pause and relax will help to calm our minds.  And find out what wrong we've been doing and find solutions to it.

I will say one of the things that makes you feel too emotional and disappointed when it turns out that the session ends with a loss, excessive disappointment is because you put too much hope in profit, I understand that profit is our main goal but what we must understand is that there is no strategy that 100% guarantees profit, because when you are too excessive in terms of putting hope in profit then besides you will feel more disappointed on the other hand what I am worried about is that there is a possibility for you to continue the session full of despair and make decisions not based on common sense and science but with emotions that dominate.

As you said above that this is the importance of a trader to have self-control and emotions, because control is the most important aspect that all traders must have in themselves, because of course there are enough bankruptcy scenarios due to the influence of emotions, which in the end you experience MC, because emotions can make someone continue the session without planning the limit to stop.

I will just evaluate my trading history and see what went wrong and why it always happens. there will definitely be defeats or losses and nothing will be perfect enough with continuous profits. Maximizing how to use a combination of indicators and technical and fundamental analysis will be very influential. Emotions will be more stable if the strategy goes according to plan and there is always a backup plan if the main plan doesn't work properly. The more trades you make, the more your emotions will be trained to remain calm in all conditions.

Yeah, usually people do not realize that they are in trouble until it is too late and that is why they end up losing so much money as well. I personally believe that the best thing to do would be just focusing on how to improve further by doing their very best.

I think if you are losing too many trades in a row, even if you think there is nothing wrong with you, just stop and you could give it a break and that is why I think it would definitely be a lot better. I get that it is not going to be a simple situation to handle, but that doesn't mean that we can't make a lot of money from it. All in all, I believe that we are going to end up with a good return, we just need to make sure that we can stop when we should.

A lot of newbie traders believe that making more trades means earning more profit, though it's true only if you understand the market enough to have success in every trade that you make, or at least most of them if you are making a lot of trades when you are not knowledgeable enough and you are losing more trades than you are winning then you will surely be in trouble because your net outcome will be in loss which isn't good.

A newbie who isn't knowledgeable and experienced enough about the market shouldn't make trades with real money in the initial stage but they should first gather knowledge and test their knowledge in demo modes somewhere so that they can be assured that they can make successful trades or not and should only venture into real trading once they are ready.

Well said, To control emotions, you have to work hard and practice for a long time. Properly and you have to remember never to make hasty or too fast decisions. Always try to keep yourself calm. Think in such a way that you don't feel wrong after making your decision. Then slowly notice that you are able to control your emotions.

The ability to control emotions must always begin with the recognition that trading is not only about profit but the possibility of loss is also always involved and cannot be separated, and also you need to have a recipe or formula to minimize something unwanted that can prevent you from the possibility of emotions, I understand that loss is a possibility that must be experienced by all typical traders, but when you have many precautions to prevent significant losses then obviously it will be able to minimize the occurrence of emotions that dominate.

One of them is like you said which is where we should avoid making hasty decisions, the market will always run which means there are still quite a lot of moments that you will find in the next time, so there is no need to rush because opportunities will always be there. A wise decision should always be based on calmness and making decisions based on calmness will be able to minimize the possibility of tension and some pressure which means of course you will not experience excessive emotions.

This is a very vibrant point and has a beginner you should learn what you are going into don't just dive into something because you feel your friends are making money from it take your time and build your self get a strategy backtest it and make your self perfect in it and you should also know that trading is not a get rich quick scheme definitely with time you will make something out of it trading is not gambling stay safe out there

All your recommendations are precautions on how to handle emotions during trading, these are pre-trading tips if you want to avoid emotions in your trades.

Popular underrated opinion, make sure you use the money you know verily that you can afford to lose, don't open trade with money that you will need later or put you in chaotic condition and will not give you peace of mind. There is nothing palatable losing money but losing money that you needee badly will make you regret trading, there is no way you will trade with such money and have peace of mind.

Well stop the mindset or something that is FOMO because most likely it will only lead yourself to a lot of problems, and I think it is not uncommon for people to end up failing along with experiencing a lot of losses because they come with only one focus on one point, namely the opportunity to get profits, like you said where they feel like they want to get the same benefits as those achieved by others or including some of their friends who have come first.

 Basically, in any case, if you only look at one side of the equation such as the positive aspect of profit, then I think it is likely that you will ignore some other aspects that are no less important such as risk management. Trading that makes a profit is when you are able to balance between ways to make the following with ways to minimize the possibility of excessive risk, as you said that trading is not a get rich quick scheme, I understand that there are some people who have managed to achieve wealth in the world of trading but you also have to understand that success is not easy to get, not as easy as saying and not as easy as turning your palm.

Losing when trading is a common thing that happens to every trader, so don't be sad for long when you lose, this is one sentence that always keeps me mentally alert when trading, there is still tomorrow to rearrange plans, reset the deadline  set and also rearrange the capital which want to spend.  One more thing that is no less important is that you have to join a trading community to get knowledge and also a good mentor because usually professional traders have good and stable mods.

Right. It is wrong to think that everything is over after a loss in trading today, because it will give more psychological pressure to the trader to take more trades and revenge trading is always dangerous. Traders continue to lose more by revenge trading and due to this, at one time the trader exits the market after losing a huge amount of funds. So when experienced traders lose a trade in the market, they use their experience to try to take the trade in the next movement of the market so that they can recover the loss if they can take the trade according to their plan. So experience and knowledge are very important in trading, trading results depend on its proper use.

To deal with unnecessary losses in trading one must understand how it works and most people get involved in trading because they have not studied it properly. Controlling emotions in trading is important so that a person does not experience pressure and these emotions can be controlled when we do not engage in excessive trading. Usually beginners are much more at risk of experiencing panic when trading because they don't know what to do when trading doesn't match their plan.

Managing emotions well will help us get involved in risks and although trading does not guarantee permanent victory, when we are able to control risks it is much easier for people to control themselves. Trading must be seen to what extent people can control themselves and when trading takes place it will definitely result in risks.

The more it gets hard if you won't move on. Losses are only normal in trading, so one must be used to it already. For those who still feel the pain, maybe they are only greedy to use higher amounts. This is the root cause of our stress so we should work on it first.

Another thing that triggers stress is when our expectations didn't came true. We also need to cut this out. There are times that the preparations that we do is right but it's just that we get unlucky because the market moves in a different direction for some reasons. There is no way that we can find a mistake in here but to pause and relax are already a good remedy for this.

Individuals that trade often are accustomed to losing, so when they are not favored by the market, they learn from their mistakes and get better. However, those who are unwilling to advance will simply whine when they are not favored by the market, at which point they will likely give up. And we know that emotions is attached to everything but we don't have a choice. Management it will help and encouraging how self will also help but all that depends on us. There are things that can be arranged to help you do well in trading example is bitcointalk you can learn and ask questions for free with fear of getting mislead. If you want to trade you need to take things more seriously. If not your money and time will go to waste.

My best strategy for controlling emotions is the extent to which I'm hurt when I think that something better is waiting for me later that I've lost it.And I always believe in this concept that one should never be weak, always have courage and be ready for the next destination. And I must gain something better than what I have lost. I always believe that emotions will be in our control if we think about it. And if you can control your emotions, you can achieve everything.  Because emotions always keep us immersed in bad things and prevent us from doing good things

Those who don't lose at trading never learn trading. No matter how big a trader is, he will definitely fail in any of his trading. When someone loses, he can learn from that loss if he wants to. Loss is a prerequisite to winning in gambling. I try to keep my emotions in trading when I lose. Every trader's emotions are difficult to control when losing. There are many traders who cannot control their emotions and at some point they end up losing more. A trader must acquire proper knowledge before trading. If the trader is not prudent then he will lose in trading.

When someone experiences failure in trading and learns about the mistakes they made then when they return to trading of course they will be careful so as not to make the same mistakes again in the trading that we have done, most people who are losing in trading will of course emotional because they lost the money they had, but if they can control themselves, they will of course rest and learn about the mistakes they made in trading, because if they cannot control themselves, of course they will suffer a lot of losses when they try to trade again in this situation. Emotions and knowledge are of course very important things for someone who wants to trade because if they don't have the knowledge, of course they will suffer a lot of losses because they don't know well what to do in trading.

overwhelming emotion indeed could affect us in a bad way, there's reason why having crippling anxiety is a bad thing and need to be treated, same thing with emotion that could influence our decision, sometime when we are angry, we just can't think by logic but instead by feeling and thats a bad way to get broke eventually if we keep up making decision without logical approach, its always thing like this that causes newbie to just disregard whatever best trading practice and just bet their lifeline on their last attempt of making profit which in turn making them go broke so bad they just decided to abandon trading forever.
in my opinion though handling emotion when losing is easy, just accept the lose streak and move on there's nothing much you can do here, losing many times doesn't mean the next attempt gonna have bigger chance of win, its all the same odd and this sometime causes bias towards many people that thinks if they lose so much eventually they have bigger chance of wining, this doesn't always hold truth.

Self realization would really be the key but not all people would really be that good when it comes to it on which there are ones who are really that good on handling out their emotions and there are ones who arent that good on doing so and this is why they do really end up on having that huge problem on the time that they do make out some mistakes. Losing in trading is inevitable and this is something that you would really be needing to consider about because on the time that you do find yourself not be able to make out some adjustments or having that losing up control then you do know on what comes next.

There are ones how are really that good when it comes to control and handling emotions which it is really that an advantage thing for those who are diving with crypto space.
Because on the time that you are the ones who are really that good with such handling on such situation then it is really that something that could put up that kind of control and realize
on what are the things that you would gonna do in certain situations on which we know that it is really that hard and not all would really be able to do so.

That is how you gain experience, you make mistakes and then you try to not make the same mistakes again. This doesn't mean that you will never make the same mistake twice, there are situations where you could make the same mistake more than a few times, because it is trading and it is not a single day thing, you trade for years, and that means eventually you may make the same mistake sometimes, maybe it will have a year between each other, but it would be the same mistake.

That just means that you end up making enough mistakes where you end up learning more and more about how to just trade better. This is why I believe that it is better to just not focus on how to make a profit, but it is also important to focus on how to not lose as well.

Excessive trading is not good for a trader's finances and health. Because when a trader trades excessively, they will sacrifice their rest time by monitoring the market continuously and seeing how the charts keep moving in front of their monitor. This is not recommended for traders, because good traders are those who can manage their time by knowing when to trade and when to rest. By managing trading time and rest time, a trader can maintain a healthy balance between trading and their personal health in the long term.

Since trading is a risky business you must keep your emotions in check or else you can lose your entire money anytime. In trading first you trade with the amount of money you can afford to lose.  There are some newbie traders who trade their entire money without acquiring any deep knowledge and skills about trading and at the end of the day end up with huge disappointment and losses. So in trading you should first start trading with the amount of money you can afford to lose. One more thing is that you have to control your emotions in trading otherwise it will go to extremes. Since this is a very risky job, you must control it. Many people think that they will be successful and make huge profits as soon as they start trading but when they face the reality they suffer from extreme depression and decide to quit so before doing this you should gain enough knowledge and start small projects. Gain the courage to trade.

Everything which is excess is always considered to be bad and it would really be better that you should really know on how to control yourself when it comes to your emotions because this market could really be that something that will really be like a roller coaster on which it could really potentially mess up your emotions which might lead into those bad decision making on which this is likely the thing that do really happen most of the time. This is why self control and discipline is something that you would really be needing to look up into.

Each person does have that kind of different level when it comes to tolerance and risks management and on the time that it would be able to hit up such threshold then this is the time that you would really
be having those kind of impulsive actions which caused by that emotions that had been burst out and cant really be handled. if you wont really be that making yourself that too careful
then you are really that bound on doing things on which you might be ended up on having that kind of condition.

Yes, this is a common thing. Even though they are veterans in trading, that doesn't mean they never lose. Of course, they also always experience losses in trading. However, the difference is, their losses are much smaller compared to their success in taking profits and gains. So it doesn't become a problem, that's because they can manage themselves and their trading activities and strategies well. So they don't panic and can turn things around to be much better even after experiencing losses. So the point is how can we manage our finances, risks, and also our strategy so that we can apply analysis and tactics to get more profits or profits in trading, because after all, no analysis will always be 100% correct, because of that, the risk of loss in trading it will exist for all traders. The only problem is how these risks can be managed very well and in detail

One of the reasons why a trader is always required and advised to have a plan and put limits on his trading activity is to limit excessive activity, because it is a sure thing that when you are too long in front of the monitor analyzing the market then over time you will lose focus in yourself which will make you make careless decisions. Limits in trading are to limit the time of running sessions and limit the amount of budget allocated and of course the benefit of these limits is to keep our brains and minds awake and avoid some careless decisions due to too long analyzing the market that can make us lose focus.

On the other hand as you said that good traders are those who can organize and manage their trading activities which means knowing and having the ability and planning about when to row and when to pull over. Trading involves money where in trading the possibility of risk will always lurk a trader, and the fear is that when a trader is too long in front of the monitor then there is a possibility that they will lose focus in themselves due to being too tired in analyzing the market which ultimately makes them make the wrong decision.

However, the only way so we can master our emotions is that when we finally enter a live trading. Although demo trading can be a good start but we all know real emotions are rarely involved in virtual account. So I suggest learn to trade using small amount first. That won’t be too painful if ever you lose your initial capital, at least you will also learn some lessons from that. Within that experience, you will come to handle your emotions more seriously so that you won’t end up with another loss the next time you trade.

However, I think people who are prepared for the risks of trading, and using money they are willing to lose, are probably people who can control their emotions more easily than people who are not prepared for that. Apart from that, the most important factor is not to overdo trading. Don't take too big a risk with the hope of big profits. However, prepare for all the bad things that could happen when trading, that way you might be able to control your emotions more easily.

That's right, especially the loss affordability part. A person who gets into a business where they have invested an amount that they can easily afford to lose would barely be emotionally unbalanced if they see their business isn't taking off, they would look for ways to improve it but while doing that, they will be mentally stable because they will know deep inside that even of the business doesn't work out, they don't have everything up at stake and they can do well even if it doesn't.

Similarly, if a trader only has risked an amount that they know they can afford to lose, their emotions will be under control in all sorts of market conditions and even if their portfolio loses more than 50% in value, they will still not panic and they can stay optimistic and hopeful for better times ahead.

Over trade is risky in both the situations of winning and losing so give a limit to your trade after every win and loss situation. A person assumes that if he trades for 24 hours then his earning will be more but it is a very risky step for him which will not only drop his money but will also put adverse effects on his health.

In the time when you stop trading then try to focus on learning about trading at that time and also try to learn new strategies but don't apply if it is not needed because many people use wrong strategies due to which they lose money. Trading should be carried out in a specific time and in order to reduce your stress you should accept both win and loss and should keep calm after exit from trading after completion of limited timing.

Whatever you are doing, if there's no time attached to it, you could be lossing your mental health and state of mind. Meanwhile, trading is not the only thing you have to do in life, why trade non stop until your portfolio is gone.

Instead of using small capital and be on X10 leverage. Why not look for good capital and go without leverage or lower leverage.

I must buy a new car with trading is such a bad statement to make.

When emotions overtake your rational reasoning. It might turn disastrous.

its always money that can be afford to lose that give ease of mind, I mean its still the same losing money and there's no harm in having much more money whatever amount it is but when we are just putting the money thats just excess of our savings or salary, if things goes to worst, we don't get overly burdened by regret, we could always make up for it later on.
its those people that use their entire life saving where they gonna need this money eventually that gonna have hard time controlling their emotion, just imagine people that putting their entire life saving that supposed for their retirement at stake and then suddenly market dumps, they'd definitely become panicky afraid of losing their money and make haste decision of cut lose even though its just normal price correction.
that kind of person is the one that gonna have hard time controlling their money I think, because in their consciousness they know they can't afford to lose that money and if bad price correction comes to play they gonna instantly think of getting doomed, always remember guys, to never use money we can't afford to lose.

We trade not to lose but the desire to make a profit. Unfortunately, the market isn't that much giving us a favor especially if you are not knowledgeable in the market. It is not a question of why we lose because whether we like it or not, trading is not all about winning but losing as well. Of course, knowledge and skills are a big factor but the usual reason why traders are losing is because of losing control of their emotions. For some people, it is hard to control and indeed that is the reality especially if we are in a situation of losing. Yes, even though we have been in this field for many years, that is still impossible because this is normal as a human being.

There is no need to control emotions when losing in trading because in my case I automatically calm myself down and I stop myself from trading.  Every time I traded emotionally, I faced losses instead of profits.  Now I don't go to trade emotionally anymore but I go to trade by controlling myself.  Both emotional or excessive greed in gambling and trading has a negative impact and a trader is bound to face losses.

That's correct, in general, because when it comes to emotion, everyone knows that it can be controlled by ourselves or that our emotions can control us in the end.
And it only happens when there are things that we don't expect to happen that suddenly increase the adrenalin response of our emotions, which causes us to lose control of ourselves.

This is often the reason why we lose when we conduct trading activity, whether long-term or short-term. which most of the traders should not do.

Greed and also emotions in trading will make us unable to decide something correctly so it will be very difficult for us to make a profit on the trades we make, but it is important for someone to be able to set a target that they might get and stop when they have reached the profit target, because If they continue and they don't necessarily get what they want, it would be better for them to stop trading and enjoy the profits they have made, so the most important thing for those who trade is of course to be able to trade without emotion in order to make a profit.

I would say when you stop trading your technical analysis, you can allot your time instead on working with your psychology. Or just completely off the charts and enjoy the money you worked for because you earned it. You needed that so you can go back to mental equilibrium and perform very well on the next trading sessions. If you do that you are very much more prepared. Because trading is also a performance game, you cannot operate well if you are too stress.

I see only one correct way to handle emotions during loses in trading - to trade even more to become more experienced in it and be more resistant to unexpected results. Everything else wont work. There are no techniques or methods to stay calm and etc. Maybe just a little hints like "creating a list of personal rules" (limits, no all-in, dyor or something like that) and to relax for 5 minutes, would decrease that bitter taste of a loss.

When one lose in trading one needs to be calm, no need for been emotional for the lose and whenever it happens like this it is advisable for one to pause trading for the moment. As a trader two things that needs to be overcome is been emotional and greed. When one is emotional their is this feeling that makes one trade more lost money can be recovered. It takes good understanding for people to overcome being emotional and greed. For those who don't really understand trading will always feel emotional and have the greedy mindset.  Learning trading and having good understanding really helps to do the right things during trading.

Learning trading and understanding it well helps to keep some bad habit that can affect trading. Being emotional in trading can never bring anything good, instead it can cause more loses.

Losing money while trading makes it very difficult to control emotions. Still since you can't break even, you have to calculate profit and loss and keep control. Not all trades lose money. Many trades have many times the profit. Maybe with that profit, some lost time can be compensated. But it is always better to keep yourself under control in trading. Trading platforms should never be traded based on emotion. Also, avoid being overly greedy on trading platforms. But almost everyone involved in the trading platform can control themselves if they lose on the trading platform. Especially for trading, the most important thing is that the amount that can be lost is exactly the amount that is used to trade on the trading platform. A trading platform should not be used if the amount of money lost cannot be controlled.

We are just humans and we do really hate on losing money on which it is really just that a normal emotion that we do really be able to encounter. This is why on the time that you do lose up money in trading
then it would really be just that wise that you should really know on how to make out some adjustments because if you cant really be able to do so then you are just making the same mistakes all over again and again on which we know that this is something that you should avoid as much as you could because trying out to make yourself that a perfect trader would really be just that making you that desperate.

This is why it would really be better that you should really be having that kind of target or goal when it comes on handling up yourself into this unpredictable frield.
Emotions is something that you would really be your main enemy on this one, if you cant be able to handle it well then it would really be bringing out that huge challenge
into your trading career on which you would be needing adjustments.
