Please Give up! If you notice trading is not for you.

There are alot of preachings and sensitization about how one should be persistent in the journey of trading and not to give up.

Yes but not at the expense of your constant loses, we try to keep it going regardless but we should be mindful and know when to stop.. it's just seems like gambling you're pushing in for positivity but then there are factors limiting you to do so and hence you don't want to give up. But when you know the trading system isn't for you it's better to stop rather than having waste of funds .

Yes, this is true, but realistically speaking, trading is difficult but it is not something that is impossible to achieve success in, although not everyone can succeed here and that is why if you cannot improve yourself in any way and keep losing, then it is definitely right to give up, trading requires a positive attitude, but at the same time it is important to accept reality. People are not perfect in all matters and not everyone can do everything, similarly, trading is not impossible but it is not for everyone.

Personally, i cannot blame those who prefer to stop trying to succeed in trading, because everyone's psychology is different. However, as far as i understand, every failure has a cause, there are mistakes we make that trigger that failure, and what we must learn is how to fix those flaws. After that, it might be best to start by improving your mindset first. Don't use a gambling mindset in trading (wanting to get rich quick), as this is wrong. In practice, traders like to use maximum leverage when trading futures or full margin when trading forex, and this is what triggers the destruction of our capital. On the other hand, knowledge of technical analysis is no less important, so that we know whether the setup we have created will fail or not, and we can evaluate the important factors.

In order for us to learn and succeed, we need to experience the worst scenario of our trading journey. Failure is not the end of our journey but rather the beginning of a big change.

Indeed, we don't need to feel afraid of making mistakes and suffering losses because with that, we tend to grow and improve. But if not, it is best to quit and forget about trading because that surely wasn't for us. And we have to note that trading is not for everyone but rather for those who want to change and can adapt to the situation.

I abide with your advise that one should not act as if without trading you cannot survive your life, just try other things.if trading does not faviour you,i think there's other things out there similar to trading, spot beting, and rest of them.. just like people due say that if your church cannot change you then you change your church.

It is not as if trading is for some people and will favor some while others want to be favored. Trading is not like gambling, where profit is based on luck. Trading is for everyone, as long as one is ready to learn and follow trading the right way.

I think for those who don't have the energy or the patience to learn trading, it is better for them not to engage in trading. One thing about trading is that the knowledge, experience, and strategy you have will always bring forth a positive result. People are not ready to learn trading; they just want to make a profit from it, and that is why they are getting the outcomes that they should not be experiencing.

Before deciding to quit look for objective signs not just frustration. If the system shows negative expectancy after honest review and enough sample trades, if drawdowns breach predefined risk limits and threaten the account, if trades become emotion-driven by fear or fomo instead of a plan, if backtests and demo trials fail across different market regimes, or if mental health sleep or relationships suffer because of trading stress these are real signals that the strategy isnt working and stopping is protection not weakness.

try structured steps before folding completely, take a fixed cooling-off period rather than quitting impulsively, drop position sizes dramatically or move to demo for a set time like 1–3 months, run systematic backtests and forward-tests with clear pass/fail metrics, get a fresh pair of eyes from a mentor or honest community to spot blindspots, simplify the system by removing cluttered indicators and focus on one clear edge, and set hard limits such as max drawdown or a re-evaluation deadline so the decision to stop is based on rules not feelings. If after disciplined testing nothing improves accept that trading may not be the right fit and pivot wisely, consider lower stress investing methods like dollar cost averaging into long term assets, switch to trading-adjacent roles such as research data analysis risk ops or prop desk work, or apply trading skills in other finance roles where spreadsheets, backtesting and storytelling with data are valued.

When you've tried everything and put in your best effort but still fail in trading, it's a sign that trading isn't for you. I completely agree when people say trading isn't for everyone, as many people push themselves too hard and end up experiencing losses and even going bankrupt. This also applies to gambling. Gambling is accessible to everyone but if you gamble without knowledge and control relying solely on luck then gambling isn't for you especially with trading which is complex and requires a multifaceted approach to success.

Everyone should have a realistic attitude so they can quickly realize that we're overextending ourselves in activities that aren't suitable for us. Some people aren't suited to trading but are suited to investing therefore, divert your budget to investing, not trading. Ultimately you should assess your own abilities and determine which one you're most skilled at.

Yes it is true that if someone wants to achieve something then he must work hard so I would say if you want to see trading then you can learn nothing is impossible and so is trading. I think when you are hesitant to succeed when you keep losing repeatedly then it is better for you to give up because it is risky. I think if someone is incompetent about it then it would be wise for him to avoid it. It is true that not everyone can do everything if you are incompetent in trading then you can invest. But I would say if you keep failing repeatedly in trading then you should move away from it.

There should be a limit to how far someone can push himself. Like in trading, if someone is just starting up, there should be limited startup capital, which, if they are unable to get something out of it, they can take a break to learn more first or, better still, look for something else to do instead of making more deposits and sinking it into the broker when they don’t have all it takes to get it all back again.

Trading should be done caution and not done carelessly all in the name of trying to make profit, if it is not really going well then we should know when to take a break at least, we should be mindful of our losses and avoid forcing your way when the strategy is not working out well for you and find solutions even if it means a change of strategy. It always leads to more losses when we try to turn things around when we are experiencing series of losses but sometimes patience and perseverance is key to turning things around.

You have a point, taking a break is important else you will just keep getting more losses. The break will help you reset you mentality and probably turn things around for you. I won't advise beginners to trade without having proper knowledge about trading else they will risk losing their capital easily.

That's what happens when beginners force themselves to trade without extensive experience; they end up suffering huge losses, especially when the market is uncertain.

Taking a break is better for calming the mind... but beginners should start with small capital so they don't exceed their limits.
At the very least, learning more will improve their trading skills.

The first question any person that want to be a trader should ask is "Would I be profitable if I start trading and how?" Once this question can be answered without emotions, I think the person is ready to become a trader. There is no guarantee that you will be profitable if you trade  and that should send a signal to us that want to become a profitable trader without getting the full skill.

Not everyone would be profitable as trader and we should not always have that entitlement mentality that we ought to make money from the market on a daily basis. Trading in the market is very risky and that is one reason we need to make use of good risk management to enable us achieve something great as trader reduce excessive loses.

Beginners are those who are new and inexperienced in trading. They need to consider this before starting. Becoming a profitable trader requires a long process, including significant time and losses, which can be used as learning opportunities to grow and learn from mistakes.
Therefore, many people recommend always starting with a small capital and taking the time during frequent losses to learn the market and learn from mistakes and everything about trading so you can develop and become profitable traders in the future. However, in reality, many beginner traders are unable to overcome the obstacles that arise and ultimately give up. In reality, this entire process is what will make them profitable traders. And that does take a long time, at least two or three years.

There's no harm in trying out things but where it becomes a problem is when you find out that you aren't making progress in it, I think the wise decision for any individual that falls to that category is to quit before it is too late, whats the need of continue doing something that aren't profitable to you as a human, although sometimes getting what you want in whatever you involved yourself as a person takes much much time, however, how sure are you that you'll be successful if you endure the test of time, so what will be the news of furthering and still failing more.

Sports betting and trading have more differences than similarities, when you are making list of options that a trader can switch to if trading doesn't work out as planned, sports betting shouldn't be a suggestion. It's not even logical for someone that has been dealing with losses from trading to just divert to sports betting, that's a wrong move. There are lots of ways to make money online without taking financial risks

The idea of wasting money in funding accounts for years is totally a waste of time and resources. Please reconsider because trading is not the only means of earning a living. thank you

Why start if you'll end up giving up after spending more money on trading? It's best not to get involved in it in the first place, so you don't end up spending more money.
I agree that if someone has spent more money on trading, changes need to be made, such as changing their perspective on trading and continually improving their knowledge to become better.
It's not necessary to make huge profits in trading; the most important thing is to survive in this industry, even if they make small profits each time they start trading.
This can be achieved by continuously improving their trading knowledge and avoiding the greed of making quick money.
