      I need to journal but the issue is the cost of the software to track. It's a catch 22. To journal and analyze costs money, money a starting trader does not have. Maybe a video or process on starting Journaling. I would give anything to be profitable enough to afford your software.

    1. Risk Management
    2.A+ Setup when and Edge is presented
    3. Discipline
    4. Patience
    I have a problem with psychology discipline and being patient sometimes. I also have a problem with waking up early because of the job I have but overall I will overcome the obstacles sooner then I expect

    I've been trading for almost a year now. Last month, I finally had a profitable month. This month too, until i got greedy and lost everything (again). This video is just what I needed. Thank you.

    • @azharhassenamod8396
      @azharhassenamod8396 Před 11 měsíci +8

      This is the same problem i have. So each day i have a min amount set that if i lose this amount i stop. So as long as most days are profitable in a month....the days where i lose dont matter at the end of the month

    I was advised to diversify my portfolio among several assets such as stocks and bonds since this can protect my inherited portfolio of about $2.5m. I’m used to just buying and holding assets which doesn’t seem applicable to the current rollercoaster market plus inflation is catching up with my portfolio. I’m really worried about survival after retirement.

    • @RaymondKeen.
      @RaymondKeen. Před 7 měsíci +1

      In my opinion, it was much easier investing back in the 60s but it’s a lot trickier now, those making consistent profit in these times are professionals reason I’ve been using an advisor for the past 5 years to consistently build my portfolio in preparations for retirement.

      I encountered Margaret Johnson Arndt through my wife, and I emailed her. She is guiding me. Since then, she has given me chances to buy and sell the stocks in which I'm interested in. You can hunt her up online if you require care supervision.

    @Thejackel1 Před rokem +4

    I've been in the trading world for about two years, and yes... I've lost money. But I've learned so much about myself during my losses. Definitely the best teacher. Now I've kept it very very simple. Swing trading. MACD, volume and EMA. Always look at last few day, weeks and months for lows and highs.
    My strategy is buy low always in red , and DCA if it goes lower, and sell in the green.
    I have my top ten that I trade only. With 2 potentials that I watch for weeks before I do any rotation from my top ten.
    Then patience. I could go into 2-3 trades and wait for even 2 weeks before profits. And that's OK.
    So from this video I say, Get to know yourself, set your goals realistically. Watch the charts and day trading for weeks and months to understand what youre looking at, place practice trades .And take your time.

This is my biggest problem; plus, another is NOT doing risk management. Your points here are all very helpful. I subscribed and I like beucase what you thought here is right-on the mark. tnx again

    Spot on Umar! Loving the content. Two things I battled with early on was as you said, not cutting the trade at my mental stop and letting hopium take over leading to more of a loss majority of the time and the one that always bit me was going back in for another trade which almost always resulted in giving the days profit right back. Learning to take my profit and walk away for the day was key.

  • @okebasi12
    @okebasi12 Před rokem +5

    overtrading which is caused by focusing on target instead of focusing on continuous improvement{which i"m learning from you recently}. You see my attention has been on strategies all these years. i now know that the strategy is not the major problem. Trading psychology{which involves personality improvement and personal discipline not only in the market is absolutely important}, and then managing the lot size.
    Even with an average strategy I think when the above is put to their place someone can still break even.
    But, please i personally need a complete tutorial on option sir.
    I truly appreciate you. I have just seen everything i need to improve my trades. Thanks a lot sir
