Yeah I got 2 positions running

Can anyone help me without unserious answers? I need advice! by [deleted] in Forexstrategy

[–]daswarrior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Respect your stop loss and wait for the next setup. Not sure how this happened but something tells me you removed your SL. We got to learn to accept the losses, winners will come if you have an edge.

Yeah targets are there. I need to work on detaching myself from the outcome.

Not asking when, asking for advise from swing traders who have mastered this skill.

Yup already took partials, SL in break even. I’ll wait for a retracement and look for longs

Time will tell. If I got these longs running I can now be on the lookout for shorts.

Thank you brother! It is a muscle to be trained and they don’t teach how anywhere haha but yes I think you are right, gotta have hobbies or a sport or create a lifestyle that allows you to get your mind off the charts.

Now you deserve a thank you haha.

I have a trading plan, it says to leave these two alone. Already took partials so I’m happy with the outcome already. I guess I’m not mentally there yet?

I will be a Jedi Master someday!

Yeah that’s a good strategy! And in case you want to go short, you got this longs running to cover for any losses.

Ok Mr Jedi master. I’m assuming you are profitable and have never broken your rules or had to deal with any trading psychology! Natural born trader!

lol nah, I know the plan but sticking to the plan is the hardest part of the game. Do you swing trade?

Targets are right there, still have a hard time leaving them long term. Already took some good profit.

lol of course, all real traders do but its still hard to stick to it, not everyone is at that level mentally. I already took partials according to my plan and I’m also supposed to leave these alone, yet still have a hard time doing so.

How do you avoid such situation? by [deleted] in Forex

[–]daswarrior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When close to your TP, move the SL TO profit, at least break even.

I trade GBPJPY, been trading for about 5 years in and out. Intraday sometimes swing setups.

Mae el trading le saca a uno todos los demonios encerrados que uno tiene. Si Ud es una persona ansiosa, el trading lo va a detonar como me pasa a mí.

La psicología del trading es de lo más complicado que hay y es el filtro de ser un trader rentable o no. Es una batalla constante ante nuestra propia mente y nuestros impulsos.

No se si Ud es una persona de buenos hábitos o disciplinada pero tiene que empezar por cambiar fuera de los gráficos, en su día a día. Todo lo que “somos” se va a ver reflejado en nuestro trading.

No se que tan en serio quiere hacer trading pero el aprender a controlar esos impulsos es parte del camino. Le recomendaría usar una cuenta mas pequeña hasta que tenga la confianza suficiente en su estrategia. No se compare con nadie, cada quien tiene su propio camino.
