    but your psychology is controlled by being a winner or a loser ....

  2. I think having psychology controlled by being a winner or a loser in trading is not ideal or healthy for sustained success. If your feelings are too tied to your trading wins and losses, you'll feel stressed. Over time, this stress can wear you out and make you make bad decisions.

    At that time I stopped trading, calmed down and later analyzed my losing trades and adjusted my trading strategy. Thus, the strategy gradually improved and frustrations became less.

    Smash your working computers as many times as necessary until
    you fix your frustration problem.

    FX on a intraday period is noise. You're trading an asset that trades a vol-figure <7% geared at 100x. Why do you think that dealers are so interested in taking your business? Comm-free and half a pip spread and you'll still go bust in a few months.

    it's easy to let frustration get you down, that drains down your energy.

    i just think to myself convert frustration into determination, most the time it's on me.

    i self examine and see if i missed something, most the time it's because i hurried in the first place.

    slow down be methodical and accurate - without that you have nothing.

    Taking a break and going on a tour are helpful and I find it frustration-relieving for me.

    You also need to analyze what exactly led to losses and disappointment: were there errors in the strategy, or was it a lack of discipline or a violation of risk management rules. This will help you identify weaknesses and avoid them in the future.
