Can't agree with the last one, but I am certainly missing the context.

One trade should never matter that much, since the outcome is never guaranteed in a game of probabilities.

Hummm, sounds like Marty just bet the farm on a Naked Leap. Whenever you reach the point where you think the outcome of any particular trade is important, it's time to dust off your resume.

Wow, I like this quote.

So true, and if you do the same mistake twice there will be no place for success not only in forex but also in your life.

 

Thumb up for you Tams :yes sir:

I think the point of his quote is that you should look forward and not backwards.

 

If your last trade was a losing trade, don't beat yourself up because of that. Move on and don't let emotions cloud your judgement.

 

If your last trade was a winning trade, don't think you are invincible. Move on and don't let emotions cloud your judgement. :)
