In Forex trading, as in any profession or pursuit, there are certain personality characteristics that make some people likely to succeed, while others seem to have their work [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] cut out for them to become a professional trader. You may have discovered in your own career that [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] certain personality traits make it easier or harder for you to perform your job-related tasks. Here are some trading psychology pointers that will help you determine if Forex trading is a good fit for you, and how to make yourself a successful trader.
First, do not get [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] run away with by your emotions. Forex is a high-adrenaline environment, and you need to be able to keep calm under pressure and make [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] good decisions. A key [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] point of trading psychology is to stick to your trading plan, and stick to it especially hard when you feel like you are getting emotionally excited. A good rule of thumb that professional traders use is this: if you haven't done the math about a new strategy, you haven't thought about it long enough. When the adrenaline is coursing through your brain and you want to take [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] a [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] risk or get out of a dangerous situation, and the trade you're contemplating is not part of your trading plan, just don't do it. Stick to your plan instead.
Second, be open to new ideas. This does not contradict the first point. You should not trade on a whim, unless you just enjoy losing money to slot machines. But in your off time, when you are thinking about strategies in a theoretical way and not actually trading by them, you should be willing to think about new strategies that other [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] traders tell you about. If you want to be a professional trader, it is essential [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] to learn from the mistakes and discoveries of others. Professionals in any industry are always learning new things, and Forex is no different.
Third, talk to other traders. This is a part of trading psychology that is often neglected. Many people think that they should hold their strategies close, as if they were trade secrets. This is not how Forex people work. Forex is a dynamic and growing market, and other investors are often happy to share their secrets or bounce ideas off each [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] other. Even professional traders often love sharing their secrets with newbies and amateurs, and even become trading coaches. Teaching others helps the teachers as well. It gives them an opportunity to work through all the logical steps and implications [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] of their strategies in a way that they might not otherwise have to do. If you want to make sure your strategy is watertight, try teaching it to someone else.
It is easy to think that all Forex professional traders must be introverted, grumpy, and socially awkward, because we just work at our computers all day. Nothing could be farther from the truth. Forex forums are full of people who are friendly and eager to share their secrets, both about trading strategy and about Forex trading psychology.
