Struggles!!!

Recommended Posts

Many people while starting trading lose their money due to half knowledge. The same happened when bitcoins came into limelight in the beginning.

I lost $27000 on bitcoin, I remember that time it was too depressing, but when I started exploring for recovering my money, I found that there are many online platforms who are providing you with very good knowledge about BTC trading and are helping people who are facing problems like this. So I also get in contact with one of the platforms and managed to recover 80% amount of the money I lost. It was very supportive of these guys...


Share your stories if this happened with you too.....

Half knowledge is dangerous especially when your into trading. You keep you capital at risk so before that as a trader you should analysis everything and step into it. If you are struggling in Demo account then do not jump into live account. Don't be in a hurry to earn money.

There is nothing wrong with a $27,000 loss - unless it was a larger percentage of your capital than you should have had at risk... and if you didn’t already have that knowledge before you began, having “whole knowledge” instead of “half knowledge” would not help one bit

... as if “whole knowledge” is actually possible .  You could memorize all the knowledge in the https://www.libraryofmistakes.com/  and master every trading technique known to humans, but everything we see and know becomes limited and split off from the whole by that seeing and knowing itself.  

So, as long as you are paying  attention to seeking more outer ‘knowledge of the markets’ (or, as in your case, attempting to leverage other people’s knowledge) than you are paying attention to understanding your own tendencies as they wave through in real time,  you are still at great risk of losing another ‘27,000’.  ie As long as you are more concerned with what you perceive than about learning about how you perceive, then all the 'voice of trading' advise you get in here and give yourself will come at great cost.

I don’t mean to be harsh even though it might read that way.  I really wish you all the best and hope you recover all your losses and go way beyond...

If you are looking forward to obtaining success in Forex Trading, you should have more than one source of income and shouldn't totally rely on Forex Trading.

Agree, we have to eliminate emotional pressure from trading and the biggest source of terrible feeling of a loss is trading with the money you can't afford to lose.

    • Date: 3rd October 2023. Market Update – October 3 – Risk off bites across asset classes. Starting with APAC, the RBA has just unsurprisingly kept rates steady in Governor Bullock’s inaugural meeting with the statement largely a carbon copy from the Lowe era (”inflation is coming down, the labour market remains strong and the economy is operating at a high level of capacity utilisation”): AUD continues to decline this month and is -0.76% against the USD right now, followed by the KIWI which marks -0.63%. The JPY, which is one step away from 150, is surprisingly strong this morning, flat against the USD, as the rhetoric about the possibility of intervention continues, this morning from Japan’s Finance Minister Suzuki. The JPN225, for its part, is down -1.85% and back to last June’s levels, but the whole of APAC is suffering: Hong Kong and China are back to trading and the former is down -3.04%, weighed down by developers and the energy sector. Moreover, the IMF has lowered growth expectations for the area.   US Yield Curve More broadly, we are seeing a series of risk-off movements, evident in the strength of the USD which, after +0.75% yesterday, is now within touching distance of 107. Yesterday afternoon’s decent US ISM data helped long end yields continue to rise (10-Year at 4.691%) while continued weakness in Eurozone manufacturing sank the EURUSD below 1.05. European stock markets suffered more than American ones, which showed more indecision and ended the day mixed. But while the mega-cap filled Nasdaq finished at +0.83%, the RUSSELL 2000 index of small to mid-cap companies is now negative YTD. Finally, the weakness in precious metals was significant, with Silver plummeting -5.81% below $21; energy also sold off, with OIL down for four consecutive sessions and UKOIL down 8% from last Thursday’s high.   FX – USDIndex +0.24% @ 106.86 after +0.75% yesterday; AUDUSD -0.73% @ 0.6316, NZDUSD -0.56%. YEN strengthens 0.03%, 149.82, USDCNH steady at 7.32. EURUSD -0.08% @ 1.0469 and CABLE at 1.20 handle after yesterday’s heavy session. Stocks – US Futures fractionally negative (US500 -0.12%, US100 -0.17%, US30 -0.11%). RUSSELL 200 turned negative YTD. EU futures -0.2% on average after both GER40 and FRFA40 lost -0.9% yesterday. APAC heavy: HK -3%, CHINA50 -1.53%, JPN225 -1.90%. Commodities – USOil -0.28% at $88.35, UKOil -0.44%, Wheat -0.13%, Corn -0.61%. Metals – Gold -0.27% @ $1822, XAGUSD @ 21.03, Copper -1.03%, Palladium -0.35%. Today: highlights include US IBD/TIPP & JOLTS, Swiss CPI, Australian PMI (Final), Fed’s Bostic, ECB’s Lane & Valimaki. Interesting Mover: Copper -1.0% @ $3.6065, is clearly losing the $3.70 area and below the $3.62 support, has been rejected by its 50MA and lost 1yr long uptrend, $3.53 is its next relevant support.

    • I always buy the dip when it hits some key MA line and also if the price is near some key round level like 4000 points at S&P 500. I guess it is an extremely safe trade.
