Trading and losing

[boyptc]

Of course, you should learn these strategies, because it is possible to profit in trading through some techniques. A few days ago, I made a trade with a simple $ 70, and I made a small profit, but I sold it again. However, controlling greed is the most important thing, because greed only leads to losses, so greed must be resisted. However, to make yourself more suitable for trading, you have to use the strategy repeatedly, but I think using the DCA strategy will be good for every investor.

When you're able to profit, make sure that it won't be getting back to the market just to lose it. But if you're going to trade that again and add it up to your capital, do everything you can so that you won't lose that money.

Because if you do, then all of your efforts are wasted. With that, that's how most of the traders earn more when they are willing to lose because they want to learn more.

If the profits are intact and you're using it to DCA and have some more holdings for your portfolio like in Bitcoin, you're doing a better job with that and keep it up.

Most people worry about losing, you shouldn't be upset or sad, unless you lost more than you can chew, but in that case you were wrong to trade with that much to begin with. If you traded with what you can afford to lose and ended up losing, just use that as learning experience and try to do better, because without that you are not going to get much out of it, you are going to end up with some problems and you shouldn't really be able to make that kind of return all that much.

We need to consider how things could change with time, and if we can assume that trading is a journey then you start by losing first, but learn and gain experience and slowly become better and eventually you start to make a good income from it.

No matter what you do in this life, you must accept loss only in trading. That is why many are still confused, which is why they have the perception that if they lose in trading, they will not trade again, which is even the life that you are living every second, minute, hour, or day that is being deducted from the days left for you on earth. That is why I said no matter what in life you are losing in trading, you are expected to have your risk management so that you will know when to take your profit; if not, you will be the best victim of loss. So trading is not just about investing, but it also deals with a lot of knowledge and questions so that you can meet up to the start.

Acceptance is the key on which it will really be that just normal that whenever you do deal up with something that involves money then there's always the chance that you can lose up money too on which this is really just that normal. When dealing up into something like trading then losing is inevitable and this is something that you do really need up to to consider so that at the moment you are already that trying out to deal with it then always been best that you should be mindful about on the possibilities that you might be able to encounter. You cant really just be winning up money all the time and its best that you do keep yourself on learning all the way and you cant really just that expect that you wont be able to lose and this is something which is really that impossible There are really just that those situations on which you will be becoming that too positive on things but ending up on frustrated because of something that being too optimistic.

That is why it is said that failure is a pathway to success because most times, if not for failure and losses, you will not identify your mistakes, and that will go a long way to affect you in the future of your business, but by those failures and mistakes, you will know that you need more knowledge on the business that you are involved in.

This happened to me recently, just a couple of months ago, when I invested my money in stocks, but unfortunately I gained a bit of profit. Instead of selling it, I was waiting for more profit, but at the end of the day, I ended up selling everything at a loss, which I was not even able to get half of what I invested. Although to me I take that loss as a tuition fee for the knowledge I got from the business and wish to invest more next time; that is why I said that no matter what life is, don’t take your loss as failure but take it as knowledge.

For those who understand trading well, it is very easy to profit from trading. Traders can get cash reward every day. While trading is a great tool for some to earn money, it can be a way to lose money for many. When trading, a trader should keep several things in mind so that they can perform their trading tasks with some awareness.

To be successful, a trader should set his limit. That is, he should be aware of how much return he wants from a trade in advance. The trader should be satisfied with the return he gets even if it is less than what is needed. The trader should definitely do enough research and review before trading.

Before taking a new trade, trader should think twice about where he is taking the trade. He should not invest in coins that are likely to be lost in the long run. It is better to avoid tokens that do not have any fundamentals.

In trading, many times, after doing good research, it is not effective, rather the trader has to face losses due to sudden decline. The trader must be mentally prepared so that he has the ability to bear even if he has temporary losses.

Sure. To me, I think only traders that lack knowledge and don’t really know where to put their money will trade altcoins because of how risky they are. Altcoins are very risky, although even if you want to trade altcoins, it should not be for a newbie trader. I think that should be for a professional trader who has been trading and already mastered the market; they should be the ones who trade altcoins.

One thing that most newbies didn’t understand is that they don’t want to seek for knowledge for them to know how altcoin trading operates; all their thinking is that the altcoins are normal trading; they don’t know that there are more risks than other trading, and that’s why all newbies lose more than other people in trading.

Because even those that have been in trading for long periods of time are still learning by seeking for more knowledge about trading since nobody knows all, and learning is a continuous sentence. The more we learn, the more we have sufficient knowledge and understanding. Even the professional traders that have already mastered the market still don’t take trades for granted.

It is not easy to make money and start losing the money all because you need extra income from trading. The fact is that most traders are losing. If you do not want to lose in trading in 2025, you need to have these four trading strategic plans.

1. Do not be in haste. That is the reason people think of day trading and lose
2. Having it in mind that it is better to earn little than to lose big all because you want to earn big
3. Average instead of martingale. An example of this is if you have $1000 for trading, you can begin with $200 and always be satisfied with the profit. But it you are losing, you can add $200 to it and so on to help you increase the chance of making money as it will make the market price get near to the price you bought the coin.
4. Be careful of altcoins. Although I trade altcoins but I use very lower amount of money for it. They are very dangerous.

There are others like knowing how to read charts, read and interpret news into your analyses and speculations, know about indicators. But which are the basics and I do not need to mention them as I believe you know them already.

Honestly seeking education should come first, I don’t think new traders get enough of that. They simply want to come in to make quick profits without having the best understanding. Try as much as possible to understand technical and fundamental analysis then it’s safe to say they are 50 percent ready

Just like many that has been trading the market using demo account, they will not know what it means by losing money in trading.
Trading is not friendly at all and it's not the place we're you start getting emotional because you lose some bets and you are not able to meet up with your trading plans. Trading is very technical and those that have the capital are the ones that are making the most money from the market. Although the market can be manipulated and big traders for loses too which is why analyzing the market thoroughly is how we can escape market uncertainty.

Demo trading is really just that good on familiarizing yourself about those technical indicators and other informations on which it will really be shown on the chart and having that kind of awareness about on how those candlestick works and behaves but if we do speak about real time trading then we do know that this isnt really something that you can be able to gain or experience on demo trading. One of the most common reason is that there's no way that you can be able to develop your emotion control on which this will really be that you wont be able to achieve when dealing up with demo because you do know that on demo there's no way that you would lose since those funds are fake on which in every positions you do make then it will really be just that totally having that 100% confidence since you do have in mind that you cant lose anything on which you would be careless on making up some entries or exits, but at the time that you are already using real money or live account then this is where you could be able to point and spot out theirm main differences.

In my opinion, the demo and real concepts both analyze market movements, in this case the main goal is that before a person wants to take a real action, he should first study the demo account so that he can get enlightenment or lessons from the demo account, that trading does not only require guesswork, but requires in-depth skills in studying it. Yes, everyone knows that trading is a complex and often challenging activity, where decisions must be taken based on in-depth analysis and a good understanding of the market.

You are right, trading is not friendly at all, it constantly cheats people who try to get rich in a short time. Technically you can think of applying many strategies in the market but to be competent in trading you need to invest a lot of money in the market. Some people assume that your trading strategy is ineffective without a minimum of $5k, while some traders assume at least $15k. The idea that has emerged from my short experience is that firstly, you will be more profitable to invest than to trade. Secondly, you should refrain from buying in the crypto market with a lump sum while trading. After depositing a decent amount of $5k - $10k by buying coins every week or every month in DCA mode try to make profits initially.

The understanding gained from a demo account may be very different when they are going to trade using real capital where they must have the right understanding to be able to know the right time to enter and exit in order to make a profit because if someone does it by just guessing as they please, of course it is very unlikely for them to be able to make a profit on trading and many losses will be experienced.
To be able to survive every challenge of trading, of course, a good understanding of trading is needed and for some people who cannot survive the challenges of learning to trade, of course they will stop at a loss, so patience is needed in learning trading in order to be able to be successful in trading.

Trading losses are a prerequisite for trading. Most traders get involved in trading crypto knowing that they will inevitably face losses. However, if you can master some things, it is possible to greatly reduce trading losses, such as controlling emotions and controlling excessive greed. When trading, a trader must learn about important things like market conditions, coin values, etc., and then start trading.

[Mame89]

And if trading doesn't work for you even if you've been equipped with various strategies, knowledge and tips, you have to give up because that's not the only option that we have here. Instead, do some reconsideration of your strategies and maybe trading or the actual day trading isn't for you. We can be holders and investors that pretty much work for the majority of us here. You don't have to do some daily trades if that doesn't work but this choice is working for me and I have proven it to be more effective than chasing the markets.

If so, we must be able to evaluate what is wrong with our strategy in order to minimize losses and change our trading methods. If we continue to lose when doing day trading, then it can be said that it is not right for you and you should look for another strategy. There are also traders who often lose in trading when they have sold, eh it turns out that the price can still fly high again, so they want to enter again but instead become minus.

This is all a test of the trading world, sometimes you have to dare to take a stand and not get carried away by FOMO, you must have a steel mentality and of course be able to control your emotions. The key is, rushing is the number one killer in trading, so don't be greedy and discipline in trading is the key to success. Because even though you have been equipped with various strategies, knowledge, and tips, but when you don't apply these keys in trading, everything will be in vain.

That is why I try to tell newbies to stay away from demos if they want to use it to learn how to. Demo isn't there to teach you how to trade, because you can't learn it from a demo, it's there to test strategies, or better yet you could just have fun doing it for entertainment purposes, I do that.

If a newbie tries to learn from demo account, they will not realize how risky it would be, and they could get lucky with the demo account by taking bigger risks than they should, and they may try that with real money and end up with nothing at all. I hope to make sure that we are dealing with something that is taking a long time, and I do not really feel like I am dealing with something so hard here, demo is just fake money, stay away from it as a learning purpose.

Trading losses are a prerequisite for trading.

It is normal but I think it is possible to profit without losing first. It can be because we are well prepared but if not, we are only lucky.

Most traders get involved in trading crypto knowing that they will inevitably face losses.

Huh? That's crazy but I think it was the other way around. They get involved thinking they can get rich quick here. They can even forget about losing but some are aware with it and some get scared that they didn't proceed at all but some still proceed thinking it is only normal and they will only risk small amounts at first, so that it won't be damaging to them.

However, if you can master some things, it is possible to greatly reduce trading losses, such as controlling emotions and controlling excessive greed.

Why some only and not all? That way we can't only reduce our losses but we might prevent them totally at most times. Emotions and greed are seem connected with each other and I think there are occasions that they are beneficial like it allows us to earn more than usual, only because we push more. That is better if we also stop eventually because there is no way that we can earn continuously or unlimitedly at one go.

At least 99% traders lose money after 3-5 years trading. I trade Bitcoin with my AI model ( you can copy me free if you wish ), but not easy at all to reach a good trading system/model.

I read your post very well I understand about trading. If these steps you have highlighted are a trader trading starts by maintenance, he will certainly do something good. Trading will have risks so it is very important to decide how much risk you take per trade. Usually a trader does not risk more than one to two percents of his account. How much risk you take will depend on you. Attitude in trading is very important to reduce people’s pressure at bad times and focus on long-term planning.
