What is the right way to handle a long string of investment losses in the FOREX market?

Posted by on November 27, 2009 | No comments

We all know that everybody hates to lose their hard earned money; all of us don’t even want to lose a singe penny. But the fact is there are people who lose quite a large amount of money in FOREX market. And unfortunately no one in this world is blessed with the great ability of foresight; otherwise people would have protected themselves from making any sort of losses. But as you all know there are no such powers so all the losses are considered to be as an unavoidable part of the forex trading process.
When ever you will be entering any specific type of a trade then you will either be right, or wrong, and there are no perfect game of forex trading! You need to play your cards yourself and that too very carefully. When an unsuccessful trader encounters a long lasting string of losses then they begin to engage themselves in patterns of trading that are self-destructive and these people feel that these patterns are going to help them in escaping the pain which they are experiencing.
You need to Bring all this to a great source of light before it affects you badly. You need to understand one thing very carefully that these self-destructive actions can help you in realizing what you are doing to yourself before it takes a hold of your physical health.
The important question that needs to be answer here is that what exactly are the destructive patterns of trading?
If you actually find yourself caught in a long lasting string of losses or in a bad performing week/ or a month then be sure to monitor your attitude as well as your behavior. It is actually during this time only that you will be at your most vulnerable state of life. You will start indulging yourself in certain sort of activities that at first seem harmless, but with its excessive use (or with each passing phase of time), they begin to cause more and more physical damage to your health.
If you feel that you are the kind of person who is involving himself or herself into such harmful activities then do ask yourself the following questions that are written below and while answering these questions be really very true to yourself.
Ask yourself that during periods of drawdown do you find yourself over-indulging in these below mentioned activities:
All kinds of Food – (especially junk and the harmful food — like chocolate, ice-cream, chips, cold drinks, cakes, pizzas etc)?
Do you Intake of high concentrations of Alcohol?
Certain harmful Drugs (includes excessive smoking or the usage of tobacco)?
High levels of Laziness (do you find it really very difficult to wake up in the morning)?

Why psychiatrists are better traders than economists?

Posted by on November 27, 2009 | No comments

You all must have noted something about FOREX market and the thing about which I am talking about is that many of the millionaire traders like, Elder, Williams and some others are in fact psychiatrists by their profession. And if you are thinking that it’s a mere coincidence then you should go and see the trading records and you will find out that it is not accidental that not the economists are the leaders and most successful traders, but the real successful leaders of this kind of trading market is professional psychiatrists and psychotherapists.
Now just think about this aspect. You will surely become a really very successful trader if you will be able to understand that why it all happens with FOREX. After reading this whole article, I am very much sure that you will get to know what your FOREX mistakes are, and why you are repeatedly making them.
And if you possess that caliber to correct these mistakes then you will definitely become a kind of trader who would be having no psychological barriers and obstacles on his or her way towards the destiny of better earnings in the FOREX market.
So, now the question that arises here is that why these professional psychiatrists make better traders than economists do? This fact is actually little bit hard to swallow it down as most of the people would think this only, that economists are the ones who have the FOREX market at their finger tips.
The reason behind this fact is that most of the economists are confused by some of the things:
—    The hard core fact about this market of trading is that the rates of exchange are not always directly related to the prevailing economic circumstances in that particular country. Well, now you tell me have you ever seen any economist who would be bidding for really very low FOREX rates at that time when the economic situation of that particular country is getting better and better? Or the one economist who admits or accepts the fact that technical analysis of a particular pair of currency is much more important for FOREX trading than the fundamental ones?
—    Any economist who is really very confident that this can never happen because he or she are the kind of person who are well aided with the knowledge of all the economic dogmas. But all this happens only in the field of FOREX trading. After all, its very well right that how can a trader lose with the pair of currencies which is moving up and down by the rules of economic world? The currency that you have chosen will surely be reacting to the economic changes that are taking place in the country, but who knows when it’s going to happen and how it’s going to happen?
