General 3 Common Mistakes Forex Trader make

2.00 star(s) 1 Vote
Taking the market too lightly is one of the major reasons why traders fail in the market. This often makes them not learn properly and take risks in every other trade. For a trader who wishes to become successful in forex trading, it’s important to know when to open a trade and when to sit quietly.
 
1. Not spending enough time on demo account practice.
2. Not taking forex trading like a serious profession.
3. Being impatient and quitting too early.
There are many more mistakes but these mistakes are the most common yet unacceptable. You must avoid doing any of these if you want to become a successful forex trader.
 
In my opinion, they are -
1. Making a general trading strategy and not formulating specific trading plans for each day or each trade
2. Thinking leverage is easy to be used if stop loss is applied
3. Not sticking to your trade plan and being constantly restless throughout a trade

I totally agree with your points. Forex is such a risky business that traders need to be aware of all the aspects about trading or they might lose.
 
In my experience, being too fearful of the future and letting it affect your trades, not exiting trades on time, and using high leverage, are 3 of the most common mistakes beginner traders make. All of these are significantly responsible for why beginners lose, and make less profit.
 
Trying to take revenge from the market for the loss they make has to be the most dangerous newbie mistake. Not studying well and expecting the market to give them money-making chances is another. The market is lucrative but it takes a strong mind to control emotions, which most newbies lack.
 
New traders have a habit of not taking things seriously. They don’t realise that losses are real and heart-breaking until they lose their money. So, instead of expecting new traders to behave like experienced traders, let them explore the market, make mistakes, and learn from them.
 
Little preparation and a huge lot of expectations is a deadly combination. It’s fine that all of us want to win but there is no point in taking the risk when you lack basic knowledge and skills. Become a deserving trader before expecting much.
 
First mistake is being impatient and chasing profits. Second mistake is engaging in emotional trading. And the most dangerous mistake a forex trader can make is not learning any lessons from your mistakes and repeating them.
 
Forex trading can be a very profitable investment, but it is also a highly risky one. Here are three common mistakes forex traders make with their trades in my opinion:
1. Failing to understand the market conditions
2. Making impulsive decisions
3. Not taking into account the risks
 
In my honest opinion, they are:
Lack of seriousness while trading
Looking for that ‘one’ perfect strategy
Using too many indicators when two or three are sufficient
 
if you think you are not well capable of analyzing, then you must rely on learning. The more a trader learns, the more he can develop himself and arm himself with knowledge and different techniques. Nurture the passion of learning more. Eurotrader provides traders with a free education program.
 
When traders make trading too complicated by their actions and mindset, it gets difficult. Trading success comes with the right strategy, and selecting the one that works is crucial. Running after strategies doesn’t work; sticking to one (until it stops working completely) does.
 
Imo, some of the most common mistakes made by traders are:
1. Not analyzing the market properly.
2. Taking decisions based on emotions.
3. Not learning from mistakes.
 
buy high, sell low. hesitating on a setup that perfectly met your criteria and only getting in when the trend is about to be exhausted.
 
Three common mistakes that forex traders usually make are -
  1. They do not check their drawdowns regularly
  2. They ignore crucial market crossover hours
  3. They do not maintain a trading journal.
 
  • Risking too much or risking too little.
  • Deviating from your original strategy or switching strategies too often.
  • Being stuck with a strategy forever without making any efforts to improve it further or modify it to suit the current market situation.
