Why did you fail at trading ?

[Redneck]

Quote from intervention:

I am not totally fail at trading . I am a looser of many times. My reason for loss is some weakness in risk management and market analysis. When I put an order it goes to loss . I hardly save my trade . Some times I get good profit too from trading . I will recover this weakness soon.

You’re on a very dangerous thought path (the if I could only trade better/ read the mkt better syndrome)


Losing well is a core skill to ultimately succeeding

===================================

Maybe your market analysis sucks… maybe your risk management sucks – I've no clue…

But I can assure you this;

No matter how good a trader we become – no matter how sharp we hone our market analysis – no matter how much money we make…

We all have losing trades

Being able to lose willingly / easily/ small – ultimately defines and determines – our trading success.

It also does wonders for our risk management


Protect capital first - make money second - period


Something to embrace - or not

In any research on the greats and in all interviews risk management is at the core for the ones that are consistent. I think ppl that break these rules are the ones chasing losses, what other reason is there. But in my own understanding of trading opportunities along with signals there are times when you can increase your risk. Times when the market is so directional that it is screaming at you "all in short or all in long"
