Trading psychology

 When it comes to trading the patterns play a huge role in reaping the reward. The reward for the risk is what each trader hopes for. Sometimes the risk shows its part by showing us the loss. But loss is just a part of the game. Whenever there occurs a loss we tend to go in full revenge mode burning all the rest of the money. We know that is a wrong approach, but we do it frequently. The reason is we don’t like being a loser. At least we need the money we put in. Forget about the profit and focus on the investment. But that is wrong and dangerous. Because markets work against psychology. An emotionally weak person always has a weak portfolio and a weak profit and loss statement. When you become a person with a rigid mentality and have the patience for the right time execution, then it is very much rewarding. That is why when we a good trader he is patient and well disciplined. Discipline is necessary since money is involved. An indisciplined person keeps liability more than an asset. He does what he thinks is right for him without proper knowledge.

FOMO dilemma

With an obsession over a thing, the given effort seems effortless. We will spend hours tirelessly and even make it to the next top level. But we develop this affectionate obsession with only a few items and most of them are addictive as well s destructive. We see this happen with people eagerly waiting for an episode of their favorite TV show. Since we do most of the fundamentals with what is most pleasurable than what is actually productive, we often fall into this trap of fake FOMOs. FOMO can be interpreted in two ways.  The first one is in the form of pleasing the external world. Protecting ourselves from being an idiot in the crowd. This is embarrassing to most people since they seek validation from the external world all the time. They are not allowed to miss what's trending, the new episodes of tv shows, celebrity divorce, millions of viewed videos, and much garbage stuff.
