They are not making money but they continue to trade

[macson]

That’s because they’re lying to themselves. If only they would accept the fact that they’re not cut out for the trading world, they’d realize that they’re not making a profit and are just wasting more time by forcing themselves to trade.

There are many people like this who force themselves to keep trading because they realize they need to make sacrifices and be patient to achieve success in trading --- while I’m not disagreeing with that, but don’t let your emotions override your rationality. If you already know you can't handle trading anymore, then you should just stop.

There are many other things you can do to make money, not just trading. It's better to look for other opportunities.

The biggest reason is greed and lack of knowledge because they cannot make profit from trading which is lack of knowledge and experience. They trade again even after losing from trading because of greed. They trade by following the wrong strategies of some dishonest people from social media so they lose. They are constantly trading for the sake of a little success, but at some point they see that their losses are high. They are making mistakes but not learning, they are losing money but not trying to avoid losses. You should put your own analysis first and do not trade with excessive leverage by looking at social media.

Why are people losing in trading but they find excuses that it is because they are not patient, not following their rules and just a little correction should be done. After few months passed, they continue to lose but they still give an excuse or excuses.

Whenever some people lose, they are always looking for excuse for their loss. Also there are still some people that are addicted to trading, they are so desperate to make money from trading, and they are already finding it difficult to stop trading even whenever they are losing. The same way some people gets addicted to gambling, some people also get addicted to trading also, because their was a period I was also addicted to trading, I was trading with everything I was having with me, and I was losing mostly.

Why are they saying trading is profitable but it is not showing in their lives like people that just do not bother but patient and make money from holding.

If d you are trading, and things don’t really work well for you, you can just try to hold, just buy bitcoin and hold, instead of you losing money trying to hold.

They will say trading requires patient but are they patient when they want to earn money always within few hours daily.

Maybe they are just making a statement that trading is profitable and anyone can make a profit from it, but they are not making enough profit to change their lives yet. It is just like me saying business is profitable, but not everyone is doing it, I am not doing it. I have also seen many traders talk about the profits and returns they made in a short time, but where are those profits now?

They will tell you about the mistakes they made that cost them all of their profits, and this is not new. Everyone has faced this, even I made a profit and turned it into a loss. I know I can make a profit again and I will, but it does not mean I have to tell you every single time. So, do not take anyone's words literally. They are just making statements, and no one is ready to tell someone everything, especially about their trades and profits.

There can be two sides in this, one is not shown to the public but they really are earning well with their trades. The other one is what you're justifying here. They talk a lot about how profitable they are but it's not giving any proof from their lives and they're struggling financially. So, for those traders who likes to brag about their profits and yet, they're not living the expected life of their audience then there must be something wrong. Maybe for the benefit of the doubt, they're living a lowkey life and they don't show any signs of how well they are.

In short they tend to blame themselves, other people, the internet, the market, or whatever it is to make it become an excuse. It happens but not everyone is like that because many are driven by greed, which makes them think trading is easy. With that mindset, they often become into day trading and as we know, most day traders lose money because they are greedy and impatient. One win can make a trader cocky while one loss can make them emotional.

You mean the day traders, and yeah they are just gambling and nothing else. Even if they are losing money they will keep telling people that they still got it and will become successful which is possible but one who isn't giving signs should explore the other options too. Maybe not quit straight away but instead of day trading they can shift their focus completely on low margin realistic trade, even a couple per month can get them decent profits rather than keep trading all day long.

trading is similar to gambling and as much as we have those winning we have people that are losing also, but what makes trading far better and less risky than gambling is the point where skills comes in, we cant deny the fact that we have some professional traders that have a working strategy to their trading and at that making some remarkable profits that we can point to. not all traders and actually losing from their trades but majority that trade with experience and skills are losing heavily from their trades.

[Maslate]

Because it is the reality about traders. Trading will never give them instant outcome and quick profits. They might suffer losses first especially if they are still inexperienced traders. And that's normal for any trader, but if they won't stop and find means to develop more skills and enhance their strategies, perfect their attitudes towards trading, making money with trading will eventually happen when the right time comes.

Trading has always been a high risky activity and not all traders can be successful and profitable. But if you think you have all the potentials to become a great trader someday, just work for it, despite of some losses that are still manageable on your part.

Here is the truth: Note that the psychology behind trading is called revenge trading. The moment you lose your money, naturally you will want to get it back, and that's what keeps most of the unprofitable traders out there trading regardless of what losses they might have incurred, hoping one or two good trades can change their lives or even hoping one day that they'll become that dream profitable trader and earn back all they've lost.

[IjawMan]

The patient required from making profit from either  Bitcoin trading or investment holdings are not the same in spite of how they both requires patience to get the right  hack to profit.

When you are a trader the perspective on time and patience will surely snap differently from that of an investor's. For the pursuit of instant returns traders get prone to making simple mistakes that costs them dearly and that makes why the population of losers traders are higher to those of trading winners.

And this we can not compare to Bitcoin investment where the investor always has the much time to readjust his strategy and cover for the long term in profit.

[Peanutswar]

Well, this could be many factors. Could be they wanted to take their money back so having more trades and hoping they can earn what they have loss. Could be they are just keeping learning, but this will be an expensive one they are doing trial of errors with their trades in an actual money than demo trades. Also, like others possibly inspired because they have earned a lot in trading but sadly opposite happens to them. These could be the possibilities but if you think you are still losing with your trades I guess there is something wrong your strategy I do recommend taking a break and analyze so you can make an adjustment where is wrong. Trading requires a capital of course no one wanted to burn their money for nothing.

[bitterguy28]

they say that because they know trading is not just about luck. it's about strategy and technique and there are ways to "win" in trading. meaning if you just make a few adjustments you could make profit out of trading

Why are they saying trading is profitable but it is not showing in their lives like people that just do not bother but patient and make money from holding.

you make different amount of profit with trading and holding. some of those who trade also hold. you don't have to choose just one.

[michellee]

They feels not good to admitted their mistake to others so they say that they are not patient and other things. Well, that is acceptable if they say that and we don't have to asks for more.

If they back to trading but they can learn the mistake, they have a chance to improves their skills. They learn it, solve the mistake and see new things from their mistake so they will not repeat the other mistakes.

But if they still losing after trading for some months, they should stops and leaves the market. They need to refresh their minds and thinks trading are for them or not. Trading can gives them profit but only if they have skills to analyze.

This is just how it is or rather how we came to see it. Being patient and want to make money over some few hours in trading. One thing I would say is that trading takes a very long time and patient before you’ll grow through it and reach that stage of making money over some hours, if you’re not patient to learn through the process, you’ll rush to want to risk money without knowledge in trading which will eventually leads to losses.

Trading is very risky they say, but it becomes less risky when you trade without the knowledge of the market and just want to make money like every other person. It is so hard to explain the complexity of trading but overtime it gets easier and that’s when the real fun of making money over few hours begins, having in mind that losses are still part of the game and process.

When it comes to trading people need to be more conscious and track progress so that they will know if they are making money or not that is one of the challenges people face they know that they will be able to make money from it, and they will want to push there self instead of targeting how they can make money quick and with the kind of personality that some people have it will not be that suitable for trading because they are always finding it hard because they are always after the money which is not a bad thing at all.

Just that the sake way that they are profitable traders the same way they have people that are not making money at all and the best they can do right now is for them to focus, something else or even step up if you really want to be trader then there is nothing more than that to do, either change course or even try to get better at it, instead of complaining and many more and it can only get better but just that it needs consistency.

[freedomgo]

Not because trading is said to be profitable and trading requires patience, then you'll get there instantly. Trading is risky, trading is complex, you will commit mistakes first and endure losses because that will motivate you to do better in trading, to increase performance level and maximize earning potentials. Simply put, trading is more likely a trial and error method, what you see don't work for you, eliminate it. What works for you, keep it.

So it's clear why despite of consistent mistakes and losses, traders still prefer to keep on trading and learn from every trade.

[Charles-Tim]

not all traders and actually losing from their trades but majority that trade with experience and skills are losing heavily from their trades.

If majority of traders that are trading from experience are losing money, which means trading is not advisable? Or did you mean otherwise? I think you are right because there is a saying that most traders are losing.

So it's clear why despite of consistent mistakes and losses, traders still prefer to keep on trading and learn from every trade.

What if a trader is trading and learning from mistakes, but he still keep losing? I know trading can be profitable, but from experience of people, some later just quit trading after several losses. Only few traders later get it and making money from it.

Traders should know when patience is required and when they are just wasting their time. There is a very thin line between the two. Many may not know how to differentiate between them, but to me, once a person becomes emotionally affected after every loss, they can save themselves from all that mental torture and take a break from trading. I was once in this kind of situation until I decided to take a break for the sake of my own mental health. Some people are quick to advise others to be patient when they themselves cannot do what they advise if faced with a similar situation.

Traders should know when patience is required and when they are just wasting their time.

Patience is not sitting and not doing anything from my understanding but know when to act and when to take a pause, reflect, and make strategic trading decisions.

Some people are quick to advise others to be patient when they themselves cannot do what they advise if faced with a similar situation.

Even in taking a breaking having a community is vital as well especially when the trader's mental health is on the line. Your point about others advise when they cannot take their own is so on point and that's why I hardly take advice or recommendations from people who have not been in the same situation as I have been because they have nothing practical to give.
