Trading Psychology: Hope and Fear in Trading

[@e.sanoop110]

Nice vdo. The best approach to trading I feel is to Sell hopes and buy fear. Sell when everyone else is thinking that the market will go up and buy when everyone else feels that the market will go down.😎😎😎

Love the desk and the whole set up..!!

Thanks for this. I had a couple losses yesterday after a week of solid gains but the losses stayed on my mind till I watched this video. Ultimately, I think I made the right decision (even though it doesn’t feel like it at the moment, lol😆.) I bought into a false breakout then noticed what appeared to be an impending sell-off, and so I sold for a loss and then the price spiked up. 🤦🏾‍♀️. I’m still relatively new to trading but my thought process was “hope can sometimes be dangerous, right? That’s why it was the last thing in Pandora’s box...” Anyway, I think I did the right thing given my experience level. This video helped a little. Thank you.

I am a little bit up overall since beginning to trade some small play money. My biggest problem has been that I chicken out when the market moves in my favor! Setting stop losses and getting out of a trade has been easy for me, it makes sense. But as soon as I start winning I worry about loosing what little I've gained. So on my best market decisions I've pulled out way to early. Typically when the market starts moving a little in the wrong way again I fear that this is the top, and I pull out. Looking at the data later I can see that I should have stayed in the trade for days.

THANK YOU!!! This one of the best video's I've seen on the psychology of trading and will help me immensely because I always pull out way too early and miss the big runs.

I had a trade on Sep 25th where I had a 500 loss. I held, hoping it would turn around. It went to a 700 loss and on Sep 28th I sold. Fast forward to today 9/15 I could have sold for a 2300 profit. I am thinking of beating myself with a hammer.

[@ShuubhamSDaabare]

Don't beat yourself just reverse the pattern of hope and fear. Grateful...

Love the way your put this point over. I seem to win more trades then lose, and one reason is that I hold onto trades no more then the day , ride it out and boom in the money. So how come its working for me? Example David if I may. I traded on gbp/cad today and low and behold put trade on and over a £1000 in the red! within 5 mins. I must admit I always look at price action, but in the end I was in profit by £220. Now if I put a stop on that I would be out of pocket....I hate stops but I know they are needed. Thoughts buddy..TreV

Perfectly explained. I'm waiting for the next video.

Thanks, Bratislav. It is coming soon, so stay tuned.

[@dominikarndt6049]

I made the same mistake many make with risking higher losses than gaining profits.

[@Kaosinlondon79]

Panic selling happened to me one to many times, only for the price to come back even higher later in the day, and when I don't sell I get stuck in the trade long term.
