It occurs to me that One of the Reasons Rookies can't make consistent Profit is because The Market does not move consistantly.
"How do you expect Me to Make Money if You Change your Mind every 10 Minutes?"

It's been said Many Times in Many Ways & this is just another.

Like the 2 year old bull said to the 14 year old Patriarch while standing on a hillock.

"There are some cows down there; Let's run down and have one."

Old bull replies;
Let's Walk down & have them all.

If you think that, after you enter a Trade, It better move Your way right from the get go, good luck. That's a lot of spread to pay.
If you are an apprentice Scalper, I offer the same word of caution.

I know this Market can move 300p in the same direction on the... pick one... 2Hr, 4Hr or whatever but I guarentee you it did not move in a Straight Asccent/Decent. It BOUNCED!!!

YOUR Job, as a Trader, is to see beyond those Bounces to what Your Research Tells you is The Target.
PLAY To The TARGET.
By all means use SL, ELO, ESO or whatever your plan suggests.
{btw. if your plan includes playin the 1 Open Position, You're Fu#@&}
Play Partials if a Full Lot is a little above your Table Stakes.

PEASE: I Honestly wish that you will Never Enter Another Trade without Already having considered HowTFk are you gonna get Your A$$ outta there.


Edit: Play "Multiple" Partials of you Risk Funds.
It will Open up a Multitude of Trading Scenarios to you.

You weren't a Rookie then and you're not a Rookie now. It's an interesting post that contains a lot of truth and humour. Expected.

My advice to you, now, is take more water with it.

Usually there are two types of emotions on trading that affect a trader. One is fear and is greed. Fear of losing money and fear of losing opportunity. Due to greed traders open big lots and revenge trade. To be successful one needs to overcome this.

True, traders are driven by both and if one wishes to succeed they need to find balance between the two.

The reason why most people usually get confused as to whether these hold buy or sell is because when they ask or see other traders they alway seem to be buying more than selling. Thsi is the truth because of some unexplained reoan. Most people are usually not so much into making a downward direction. They alway want the graph to rise not matter the position that it is in and so they wait for it to drop then they make a an upward prediction which is the buying. If you don't know what to d then you need to learn more because it si not just about buying and selling btu being able to know which option will make you profit.

Most traders cannot be successful because they do not have good knowledge about trading. If you want to make a profit in trading, you must develop skills with patience. You have to make a profit by combining many strategies. Loss can occur if this combination is not correct. All in all, if you want to make a profit from trading, you have to learn first.

You must first overcome greed and fear. And when doing trading analysis, the market has to look simple. If you look at the chart as complex, it will be a bit difficult for you to make a profit.

There are many types of strategies in the Forex market. Among these strategies, technical analysis is better. I try to read the market context all the time. The first thing you need to know is what position the market is in. It is better to stay away from trading in the volatile market situation. And if the market is in the impulsive movement, it is possible to make a good profit by trading.

Very true. I think both can be solved through self discipline. Have a plan: I do this and only this and nothing can change my plan.
Some successful trading strategies can even go 9 in a row (loss!). Imagine if you double your capital
every time in order "to recover".
