I, like others traders, used to wonder what is the
personality of a successful trader?
I mean what makes them successful and how do they make
money in forex market while other 90% of traders toil hard to even have
single successful trade?
Here are some aspects in which the successful traders
differ from the rest -
1. Successful traders are prepared with a well laid out
plan. More importantly, they stick to that plan and don't deviate from it
or rush through it. Remember a "rushed through" plan is almost a receipe
for losing money.
2. Successful traders remain emotionally detached from the
trade. By this what I mean is that they have guts
to close the trade when it is in loss. Majority of traders
lose their way right here. They keep their trades open even when the trade
is in big loss, because they expect the market to reverse. But by the time
the market reverses, their entire trading account is wiped out
3. They don't "make things happen". yes, that is right!
They don't take on the market. Instead they analyse
the market and trade per market conditions!
