its a long story my friend. but to make it simplify..i started on researching of different websites in forex trade. hard to believe my self of all the contents i read still i dont understand what is forex and dont know how market works when it comes to currency. i keep asking to my professional friends who knows about this forex.but you know what most of them they always said that i will just only spend my money if i will not focus of what i am doing.some of the expert trader they told me to attend live coaching. to have a mentor in short. well i did that.now i started to learn. im still not expert hence im like a newly born baby in forex world.my main question in forex is..how to buy and sell without guessing? i asked also my coach. he said he can answer my question anytime he want but how can he answer my question if even the chinese stick dont know how to do it and dont know how to read numbers. please help me.i want instant money

I can guarantee you instant money........quit trading and you wont loose any.

 

OR study everything about your market and about different styles of trading. It takes 10,000 hours (im told) to end up being professional at something. Stock market, or forex, is no different.

 

Another thing, if you want instant money then to look for change in the street, thats instant money. Instant is a one time thing and money does not imply the amount of money you want ,so your statement makes no sense, hence YOU WILL LOOSE.

 

Its sounding like you have delusions of grandeur and if your going to trade with that attitude just send me your money, at least it'll go to a good cause and you wont be frustrated afterwards.

 

If you goal is to trade for a living, go listen to your mentor and do everything he tells you. If your not comfortable with what hes telling you then get another one if you have that option. Or teach yourself, but its a very bumpy road.

I had a REALLY bad day yesterday, one of those days where it feels like nothing goes right and where things that should go wrong go horribly wrong, one that just pisses you off to no end!

 

Well those days I use as reflective days, I wasn't trading by the way.

 

One of the things I thought of was whether I should trade anymore or quit and just invest in mutual funds. I have made no money from trading and apparently I am addicted to over-trading. I mean really addicted to over-trading. I know this effects many people and Im wondering if anyone has overcome this to successfully trade and make a living or at least grow your Roth IRA?

 

I will always get in too early before a daily trend line break, then out after it crosses a 5 minute level of support, without breaking out. Sometimes during the same day sometimes during the 2-3 days following my entry. Also I seem to move my attention away from the leader stocks while they are "boringly" basing, obviously I know I do this yes it persists. Like everyone on here Im a good stock picker but a horrible trader, I know I am doing this wrong and for some reason I cant get it right! I have no written strategy, I have no written trading log and no money management policy and I understand that all of this goes against good practices, I really just wonder why I cant get it straight! This last go around was with fake money and I said I wasnt going to trade until I took that 50k to 1 million, see how unrealistic that is!

 

I am big on beating myself up and am my own worst critic at the same time I know I am capable of great things, maybe stock trading just isn't one of them?

 

Has anyone gone through something similar?

 

Let's say that you have an overnight transformation from the trader you are to a trader that can consistently earn 5% to 15% a year. With the capital you have, can you survive with that return? if you can't, then you have your answer.

Amazing how many people tell the addict to indulge. Sure have another hit, you can control this 800 lb gorilla anytime you want to, I say stop - halt !!. Your bottom is in - you never have to suffer like this again. Over trading is gambling and will lead complete destruction of capital, sleep, and soul and an lead to other addictions popping up like chain smoking, drinking 24x7, binging on food, etc. . Of course all the other gamblers will not want to see the crab crawl out of the cage without completely imploding the account first.

 

You can always dust yourself off and try this later. Look, I get it been there done that - and have all kinds of addictions I deal with. Go outside -turn off the puter. Find support from friends/family not some market snake skin oil person that needs your money.

 

Good luck to you. Turn off puter - tune into life

 

Aloha,

Quitting is what makes you a looser not the losses you have made; you have to stay back and continue trying; success may be steps away but you may have to take a total review of your trading strategy.
