Forex Mistakes

Posted by on November 9, 2009

There has to be awareness between newcomers and people who wish to establish themselves in the Forex market. Forex Market structure states that the trading system itself to be operated creates complicity. Profit can be earned by following the trade structure. One should not be educated and should not bother about the complicated physiological issues.

Further, that no mathematics should be taken to determine the ratio reward ratio. Forex Trading psychology should also be taken into consideration to look for Forex mistakes. Most of us relate a trading mistake to the outcome (in terms of money) of any given trade. The truth is, a mistake has nothing to do with it, and mistakes are made when certain guidelines are not followed. When the rules you trade by are violated.

There is absolutely no correlation between the outcome of the trade and a mistake. The most catastrophic mistake even has a positive trade outcome, made money, but this could be the beginning of the end of the trader’s career.  As we have already stated, mistakes must only be related to the violation of rules a trader trades by. All these mistakes were directly related to the signals given by a system, but the same is applied when getting out of a trade. There are also mistakes related to following a Forex trading plan. For example, risking more money on a given trade than the amount the trader should have risked and many more. Most mistakes can be avoided by first having a trading plan. A trading plan includes the system: the criteria we use to get in and out the market, the money management plan: how much we will risk on any given trade, and many other points. Secondly, and most important, we need to have the discipline to follow strictly our plan. We created our plan when no trade was placed on, thus no psychology barriers were up front. So, the only thing we are certain about is that if we follow our plan, the decision taken is on our best interests, and in the long run, these decisions will help us have better results. We don’t have to worry about isolated events, or trades that could had give us better results at first, but then they could have catastrophic results in our trading career.

Define the mistake, find out what caused the mistake, and try as hard as you can to effectively see the nature of that mistake. Finding the mistake nature will prevent you from making the same mistake again. More than often you will find the answer where you less expected. The Forex trade guide can be one option in order to clearly demarcate the benefits and the mistakes in the Forex Market.
