‎One Thing That Keeps Me Going While Trading

[AVE5]

Loses are certain when it comes to trading, it's not just all about winning all the time, infant I even see losses as motivation to tell me that am almost there, although its comes with emotional depression, heartbreak and so on,

Please don't give a room for such an emotion that can break your heart. Depression will also eat your sense of reasonings too.
Time goes by too when you'll open trades without examining properly of whatsoever strategies they've activated.
The depressions is always felt like "WEAKNESS" which drains you mentally. Please don't do that yourself if you've been allowing depressions to eat through you.
Note that heartbreak is also a killer of life. So don't let befall victim else you may loose your funds and same time loose your life.
It's advice to treat your trading emotions as that of gambling so that we don't damage our mental healths at the  course of loosing more than we can afford to lose.

While being resilient from giving up when you experience loss in your trading isn't a bad idea, it's also important to know that you can't recover all your losses immediately.

Some traders will keep losing. They will think of different strategies but the strategies may later fail and the loss may continue, this is what I have noticed about trading.

Trading will take time, take money and get many of the traders are losing. This is just the reality that many traders will not accept but later accept.

Many traders lose more than they should have lost in trading because they chase to recover every loss and in their defense, they call it trading bravery. Sometimes the best decision is to stay away from the market for a while and clear your head.

Yes but it is easy to say but hard to do.

Loses are certain when it comes to trading, it's not just all about winning all the time, infant I even see losses as motivation to tell me that am almost there, although its comes with emotional depression, heartbreak and so on, but what keeps me going is the motive of being discipline, patience and focused while trading, regardless I still maintain being consistently because you never can tell the trade that will eventually change one's life for good.

‎Just accept loss as a stepping stone to success, by correcting every mistake to improve and gives you a better and successful trading result.
‎
‎Already remember that success is not just something you can get so easily as expected, you need to be self disciplined, emotionally fit, to manage and control risks to become a better trader.

‎In summary
‎This should be your motive while trading.. Stay focused/Stay consistent/ keep going and stay positive.

Everyone's motivation when we trade is about making money. But can't stop those who are giving up too early because they see it is going nowhere.

And that's good for you if you're seeing the positive side of it despite that you're losing and heartbreaks after frustrations.

The losses are normal.

No one can skip that especially for the beginners because everyone also has experienced that. But after experiencing it, that's where it should start whether you'll continue for more or you have to stop for your peace of mind and take the losses.

Keep going only when you know that you are also seeing positive results but just a few mistakes here and there. What I mean is that it is also important for traders to make sure that they are not just wasting their time and money with trading, because if you are constantly facing losses and see no progress then you need to stop, re-evaluate the whole process, increase your knowledge, practice more and then see if things are working out or not. It is a very good thing to stay motivated, but only when there is an actual reason to stay motivated.

For traders who are usually doing good but they sometimes incur losses, it is obviously not that big of a problem, they only need to find the mistakes they have made and work on them for the next time so that they don't face the same problem again. We can become successful only if we learn from our mistakes, because that's how we grow and learn. If you make a mistake and just forget about it and move on, then you can make the same mistake again because you didn't even try to find the root of the problem.

So, as a trader, it's important that we learn from our mistakes, find the root of the problems being caused, and work on them so that they don't incur again in the future.

Hope you are not expecting much from trading? Make sure you do not focus on trading for life changing money. It is possible, but the chance that it can happen is lower than the chance that it can not happen. If you do not want to lose much to trading, change this mentality that can make you to be having emotional trading.

I think that, over time, most people come to realise that trading was never meant to make them rich overnight. From my experience in the market, I've learned that trading is mainly a tool for building wealth. Don't ever think you can get rich quickly through trading, because this is the psychological side of trading that most people don't talk about.
Yes, your goal is to make money, but you cannot make money without taking risks. The way I see it, trading is a way to grow wealth gradually. That's why wealthy traders tend to make more money from the market than the average trader. They have more capital, so they only need to take small risks to make bigger profits.

They don't spend too much time in the market. They might take a 1:2 risk-to-reward trade, secure their profits, and leave the market alone. Over time, you realise that they can remain profitable and consistent with this approach. Their profits can easily cover several losses, which is something many people underestimate. But how long does it take the average small trader to understand this? For some, unfortunately, they may never realise it.

This is the big mistakes most traders make. They thought that because they are losing constantly, one day they will hit it big and make a lot of money that can change their life forever, just like jackpot in gambling, but they are wrong. Trading do not work that way because you don't make money in the market consistently by luck, and even though you managed to win a big trade, you may lose everything including your margin if you don't really know what you are doing.

What separate a successful trader and an unsuccessful one's is that they are profitable. They are not winning every trade but if everything is calculated, they will always be at the winning end, and that is how traders make money, so don't be here and be thinking that you are going to be losing until you hit it big one day, because trading and gambling are not the same.

I just thinking how getting a one time successful trading can change life, is there anything like this? I don't think so. Only gambling that can give players this kind of rewards, but not trading.

Becoming successful in trading means that, you can be getting pretty little profits on a consistent level. For example, a $15 gain daily is enough to be more successful than hitting big amount that seems to be life changing, which I think nothing like such exists.

That mentality is not proper, adjust it if you come across my post.

The trade you say,

One trade can not change your life, you need constant energy, constant focus trades upon trades learning upon learning and so on understanding that will change your life.

You speak of it like it's just 1 trade you need, you actually need a lot if you want a life changing experience

Your opinion is right as well, but someone who doesn't earn up to $15 a day and then starts earning up to that amount everyday for a month up to a year, has definitely become successful and has or is having a life changing experience because it shows that they already mastered their strategy, know their onions and am sure the amount may be more than this if they increase the capital allocation they use to trade to get profit.

Although a new trader may find losses as a discouraging factor if they don't see it as a lesson and a sort of test startup to their company and of course losses being part of the game. When discipline is mastered over emotions, consistency and not just the right knowledge, but the application of the right strategy and knowledge, would surely turn the painful losses into a life changing experience that says anything you set your mind to do, is possible and often times leads to success.

I understand your point because most probably you are still a beginner in this journey. But never forget that trading itself is already risky, even if you are trading as focused and disciplined as you are, the uncertainty in the trading market makes any trader lose their funds. And from my trader's experience, its not reasonable to expect a lot from trading, and assume that after all those losses and pain from losing, winning will certainly be the end goal. At least learn to trade as a side hustle, without leaving your main job for the sake of trading.

Well, I must say that there are also few traders who have made life-changing experience from trading, but take note, they have lost a lot more more than what you can imagine. That 's why I don't suggest being too positive and optimistic with trading.

Instead, learn to trade like you are just looking for extra income, not really doing it for main source of living. Trading is never a stable career that can offer a sustainable income, the chances to lose is high than expect winning from it.
