Discipline and Patience: Many traders fail as a result of poor discipline and no patience. We believe that the personal and financial opportunities available by learning how to trade currencies can match or surpass that of highly successful professionals. These kinds of opportunities are dependent on progressive commitment. Discipline and patience define the beginning of your trading career. They represent the foundation of everything that follows and will always be part of your trading success. You need discipline to: • Follow through on your daily training requirements. • Make a plan and then work your plan. • Adhere to the rules and guidelines of a successful trading methodology. • Employ the same techniques when trading with real money as you would with paper money. Although the goal is to be successful in trading the Foreign Exchange market, you need patience to: • Understand that this is NOT a get rich overnight scheme. • Invest the necessary time for cultivating chart analysis skills, money management skills and an understanding of how currencies behave. • Set realistic targets. • Evaluate your progress in a practice account. • Avoid trading with real money until you have reached your predetermined success rate in a practice account. • Allow the trade to work its way through without changing your plan. Emotions and Confidence: The way you feel impacts how you think. The extraordinary thing about exercising your discipline and patience; is that your every success will slowly impact how you feel and think about your trading ability. The more you achieve the more confident you will feel. Fear and greed is every trader’s enemy. Your greatest strength is the ability to cultivate skills and develop confidence. |
