tirus Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 I tend to believe that it more depends on what you do after your loss. If you just continue on the same road without any introspection or evaluation of your decisions then its an experience not used to your advantage. Its always better to look back and try to figure out what went wrong so that you can find better ways to ensure success. This is where it becomes a good learning curve.

riddick09 Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Well, I don't believe that it is always the cases that when we need or must lose first before succeeding. It can be also succeed then fail sooner. No matter what we need to be prepared for that and need to consider different factors in order for us to have good trades and be successful but then we can consider losing in trades as part of our experience in trading.

tirus Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 What matters at the end of the day is the experience that you get from your losses and what you end up doing about it. If you learn from your losses you have a better chance of being succcesful that someone who ignores the losses and goes back to trading without evaluating what if they could have done things better to influence a positive outcome out of their trading experience.

This is where it becomes a good learning curve. that is what we need if we loss in forex, evaluation can be a good and powerful thing for us, well sometimes trader evaluate their trading system and their trading strategy after they don't trade forex usually in sunday ,and i agree with you that it is better if we look back and see what wrong and then fix it, because we need to loss so we gain also some experience from it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riddick09 Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 I think its better if as long as its fresh on our mind those mistakes or losses we have then take note of it. But then those losses cannot all be avoided we need only to know how not to have those so we will not suffer problems. Again for me it is not a need to have losses but losses is part of trading experience. You will not intentionally make losses here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Yes, losses are part of the forex trading experience and that is to be expected as part of this experience. But one should not trade in expectation of a loss but rather with the aim of making a profit out of their trade. When they do come, take them with stride and know that not all losses will mean a change in strategy but it does help to see if you could have done things better, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riddick09 Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 As is expect the unexpected but in this case we do know that there's always chances of having losses. And I guess everyone expect for that and they cannot avoid or prevent those because of it is part of trading just like other business we have. For the betterment yes, when we experience losses some traders makes it a move to make their selves for a better and learn from mistakes.

Â By learning from these mistakes you could better yourself as a trader and that is the most important part. We already expect them to come along at any time so this is no problem but how we react to the and do about the situation can be a determining factor between a good trader and the opposite. The more we get to learn from these instances is the the more we are likely to make profitable trades. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
budado Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 I really don't like the thought that we must loss to make us succeed. We can succeed even if we don't make some loses. Our aim in forex trading is to make less mistake. the more less mistake we made the more we can earn in forex in the long run. that's why its important that we learn how to trade in forex and how to earn not to learn from our loses.

tirus Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 As much as one can learn without making mistakes, mistakes do really improve your learning experience, thus the saying Once bitten, Twice shy. If you have had a bad experience you dont tend to forget it and try your utmost to ensure that it does not happen again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luckyvoy Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 It is fact that every one lose some time and no one always win, but i dont think losses give good inspiration rather it taste of profits that inspire us do better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tirus Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Every forex trader has come across losses at one stage or another and that is to be expected. The best thing to do is to learn from them so we can become better traders. This does not mean though that losing is the only way to learn trading.

rexway Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 Well this is absolutely correct if a trader is not loosing in forex market he will be thinking that maybe the market is just for profit alone but when loos there is a tendency of seriousness so you better accept any loss you face and move on for profit.

I can uderstand your point in that too much profit without loss can lead to overconvidence by a trader but this is something that we have to lear to manage. Forex trading is all about making profitable trades and the more profit you can make while managing the risk the better. Losses will come but but this must be kept to as mimimum point as possible.

rexway Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 yes because if you keep on win win and win everytime you will be going to the market with the intension of wining and the potential for learning new things and strategy will not be there so the right thing is to se loss as a lesson and try learn from it as much as you can to become a good trader Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
budado Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 yes because if you keep on win win and win everytime you will be going to the market with the intension of wining and the potential for learning new things and strategy will not be there so the right thing is to se loss as a lesson and try learn from it as much as you can to become a good trader Its depends on the person not in winnings or losing. If you keep on winning and want to maintain your winning you will try to do more hard work in trying to develop or enhance your strategy to maintain your earnings. While loses sometimes going to result to feeling down that you will going to end up losing appitite to trade in forex anymore. In short losing is not necessary. its all in the person's mind.

riddick09 Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Definitely, every trader will experience losing trades and how often they are going to lose. But its not the meaning of trading if we just think of our losses what we should prioritize more is to have here good profits even we have losses. And also to make better strategies that will maximize our earnings in trading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tariq777 Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 yes I agree with you on this topic, a trader without the experience of losing money can't be successful as he'll be over confident with himself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But its not the meaning of trading if we just think of our losses what we should prioritize more is to have here good profits even we have losses. And also to make better strategies that will maximize our earnings in trading. That's true. No one is imune to loses. theirs no such strategy that can make you earn money 100% all the time. But in loses if you know exactly how to make that loses turn to profit then its not a loses at all but preventing to have more loses. And that loses is just part of your strategy to make you earn more money. In short forex is all about strategy. It does not matter if you have 100 loses and one profit trade if your one profit trade earn you three times your 100 loses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indieover Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 we should not lose just to succeed. losing from time ot time is just part of learning but it does not necessarily mean you have to lose so that you would learn. it just shows that we are not perfect and it is forex is unpredictable.

budado Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 If you succeed without losing then that means you already learn and the reason why your not losing simply because you know what you are doing. those who loss only learn when they suffer loses while does who don't loss actually learn forex trading already before they trade and that's why they don't encounter loses. So for me its wrong that you "must" loss to succeed in forex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
