    I agree with you Esha, respect the market. This will mean that you thread carefully and not take too much risk.

    I trade occasionally, not everyday. Daily checking the market and other traders suggestion then when I think I should trade, I trade for long term.

    To be a good you need to be disciplined. Every other trait like money management revolves around discipline. If you lack discipline, you wont stick to your trading plan and manage your risks well. Patience is also mandatory since making profits in forex takes time

  4. to be a good trader you must make money, everything else is BS. no ego, no bragging, no delusions it’s like any other profession you become good once you figure IT out. the IT in trading is money management. once you “master it” you become a good trader/profitable trader.

    peace

    Undoubted a well disciplined trader can have more plans and opportunity in Forex because of their controlled nature.

    It
    Well it refers mostly to investment, trading also requires very good technical background. I think you won't disagree with me that trading manual traders are the legacy. Majority of trading strategies are based on algorithmic approach (so coding + math)

    To understand the market movement we have to maintain our discipline so that we can have right movement to enter the trade and exit.
