You can not always be all these! Those things you said we should be or be not are the very things that make us human. However having control and balance is what make you a trade duper super star
Trading is not a school lesson that you’ll be told by someone and you will remember it in your whole life. It is just the experience which makes you a good trader. You keep on learning new things with the passage of time, which helps you out in doing effective business. But if you think that someone will tell you and you’ll become successful trader, this is near to impossible.
I totally agreed because I have been there as well. I tried to study and learn through reading and textbooks. But I said to myself that it is better if I will go on trading because you will not know if you are going to be successful if you just read all the books. So I started with small capital and work my way up. I encountered a lot of challenges a long the way, but I kept on going until I go learn some good strategy and method on how to be a successful trader. I know its a long way to go but I will not lose faith eventhough that there are bumps that I face a long the way.
The advice is very useful and probably not everyone can do. I was also quite panicked and worried when my money kept dropping a lot (40%). Not a small number, then I actually accepted the losses and sold them at low prices because I thought it might decrease further. And it is a mistake for the newbie because anyone who has experience will understand the rule of reduction will increase again. I received a big lesson - maybe a tuition for success. I can now control my emotions and business with a cold head and logical analysis of the market. A long way to go to success and business is adventure.
I think following things should be done by all traders:
Planning for investments
Listing down their winnings and losses
Trade off at the right time from the market
Use of previous knowledge and experiences
Must me market intelligent.
