    Trading teaches me more about life than life itself. The game of chance and risk is basically life, and of course everyday can't always be a win, some days, weeks and months will be bad. Thank you for this video, it all depends on your mindset

    This just helped me out a lot, I had a losing day today, but I followed all of my rules and didn’t know what I should do. After watching this I reviewed my losses for the day and realized that while I was in profit, the market structure shifted and I stayed in too long until it stopped me out. I realized I need to work on being more objective while in trades instead of having a bias.

Good thing is I only lost $70. Thank you for the good work you’re doing and inshallah you’ll succeed in life.

    Losses are a part of learning. I’ve had pretty large losses and the biggest way to come out of that negative experience and thoughts comes from finding out how it all went wrong and reevaluating my level of risk.

    i needed this perspective... to resurface..bcuz for almost 4 weeks i was trading smoothly... daily making satisfactory profits and minimal losses few days... but yesterday i just lost all that profits that i earned in last 3-4 weeks... all because of the shattered psychology. initially i was only making loss of 20% of total loss i actually lost yesterday... all bcuz of not letting go.. no stepping back and stubbornly overtrading as well big lot sizes. this all messed my mental algorithm and flow that i built in last few weeks.

    Nice one and thanks . I also want to add, just like how you define a good loss and a bad loss, we must also define a good win and bad win. This will help us to avoid mistakes in the long run. If one wins in a trade which is not as per the game plan or strategy (by fluke) then it should be a bad win and this must also be avoided.

Your trading experiences are excellent, especially the video on "Recovering From Trading Losses." I have a small request: Could you please make a video explaining the Trailing Stop method? It's a smart way to stay safe while trading, helping you protect your profits and avoid significant losses. I'd love to learn about its pros and cons and how it actually works. Thank you for your videos, and may you be blessed.

    A GOOD LOSS; I executed the trade perfectly. A BAD LOSS: I did NOT exactly follow my rules when I took the trade! Before I became consistently profitable and even to this day, I record my trades so that I can playback and analyze later!! The market is overall RANDOM with small segments of sequential movements...
