How to Avoid Hesitation as a Trader
A lot of traders work on their charts, have their game plan for the day, are at their computers early logged into their brokerage account and ready to trade. Then they have the stock they’re watching hit the level they’re waiting for.... ALL of that, just to freeze and not pull the trigger on a trade they’ve been watching and waiting for. So in this video Umar Ashraf goes over how to avoid hesitation when pulling the trigger on a trade that presents itself in the market!

the fear comes from uncertainty, once you are consistent enough in a strategy that fear naturally fades from exposure
440 Umar shows a great example that you dont have to be a math genies to be a great trader, discipline is the key.

I'm extremely grateful for this insightful video, Umar! Your guidance on overcoming hesitation as a trader is truly invaluable. It perfectly addresses the struggle many of us face when we hesitate to execute trades we've been waiting for, despite doing our due diligence and creating solid game plans. Your explanation of how fear and uncertainty contribute to hesitation resonated with me, highlighting the psychological aspect of trading that is often overlooked. Your practical tips and strategies have already had a positive impact on my trading mindset, encouraging me to trade with smaller amounts to reduce hesitation. Thank you for shedding light on this important topic and providing actionable advice. Your content has been a game-changer for me!
This was an outstanding video. I hope you keep posting. We like your style.

Using small size is the best confidence builder. My confidence went up after I reduced my size by 80%. I used to trade with $10k positions. 1-3% risk -$100-$300 risk. To build confidence I went down to max $2k positions. Risk was then $20-$60. Much less stress. And even smaller if you want to trade.
440, and i don't even care. The fact you making these dope videos for free, man i love you cuz i cant afford to be part of SML currently so i learn the cheapest ways possible at the moment. Thank you so much for doing this. So glad i followed you on instagram when a guy from work showed me your page few years back. Nothing but love!
440, you're like the Dora Explorer of the market, the way you explain it is fantastic, you are an excellent teacher and I was actually recommended your channel by your cousin, not sure his name we are in the same discord group very grateful, I have learned more from you than I have anywhere else lmao, thanks for the content brother
Always up to date watching Umar's video, great insights on learning new things
Just because of how good you explained risk management on the video you got a new subscriber :)
So absorbed in the process that you didn't even calculate. That's phenomenal!!! Respect 🙇🙇🙇
Umar, thank you brother for all your time. I appreciate you. Great content!
the stock market is very lucrative but can be tricky, and if you’re not careful, you may make some grave investment mistakes that could cost you a lot of money.

Often investing in stock is risky that draws attention to the immense losses and gains. Investors should be cautious when it comes to investing in the stock market and understand that nothing is a sure bet

I always find these A+ setups with good RR but I always hesitate on entering my trade my risk mange is tight everything is working well other then my execution there lots of money j have left on the table by hesitating so hard, I don’t mind losing since I already know that what comes with trading but when it’s comes to entering a new trade even when my levels hit everything hits on. Point i hesitate
you know the real trader is when their youtube videos is so simple editing, because they are the traders not youtuber making fancy video
Thank you for this video.
Great job explaining the methodical way to build up confidence taking the trade!! Thanks!

Actually it is fine your start trading with lots of money but the fact is, is not all about how big the money is, what you should is how trusted and reliable is the platform, so I have project running that helps in developing individuals especially those with mini jobs and want to develop it to higher level, I coach and guide them to be successful in there plans.
Thanks for this video
I have lack of confidence in everything in life and myself which impacts my trading with me never trusting myself then missing a trade which respected my level and made its move. Sometimes even if I size light I still don’t trust myself and won’t take the play
Thx for the great content✌🏼
Great content man!!
Love your videos
Great video! thank you
Awesome explanation
I like the logic, but isn't $50 too tight given volatility in current market? Also, a tight SL on low dollar value stocks/options (under $5) where you are investing $1000, means you could only lose 5% - you would most likely be SL out (i.e. 5% change on a $2 contract is a SL of $1.90)
When he first wrote 340 i questioned my entire computer science math skills. I was like wtfff, haha umar :)
Thanks bro😊
I have been trading for about 6 months now and just about every trade backfires and slaps me in my face. Nearly impossible for me to catch more than a few points . I try to do top down analysis but it doesn't work for me . I say to myself, clearly I'm in the 90% that lose money, so I open a demo account, do my analysis, then take the opposite of what I would normally take and get the same result. I'm starting to feel hopeless, any advice for a struggling trader?

Your problem could be your stop loss is too close or you're watching your trades too much. Place it and walk away. Or you could just give up, trading isn't for everyone.

@@elliotalderson9487 Don't listen to him, don't give up. Trading takes time(months, even years) to master, even the pros learn everyday. Never the less, if you lose money no matter which side you take, maybe you need to look at how you are managing active trades rather than how you are entering them. My advice, find a mentor . And also, try incorporating the use of oscillators, Bollinger and pivot points into your strategy. And most importantly move to higher TFs(4h or 1D preferably), you'll thank me later .

@@susanarmstrong8174 You're correct, I don't lose money every single trade, but my main problem is trying to let my runners run. Very rarely do I catch big moves . Instead they go a few pips in my direction, then go against me if when I try holding them. Also my entries could use a lot of improvement. A mentor would be amazing, but getting one is easier said than done. If it's not too much to ask, do you know any legit ones?

@@isabelcastellanos93 I know of one lady though, she is not a mentor per-se, but she is freakishly good at trading. From what I've gathered she used to work for a proprietary firm till she retired. Met her at one of those conferences, got to know her and we exchanged emails. Since she helped me, I've been making about $1000 bi-weekly. What I'm trying to say is the 5% of traders in the world that are consistently profitable are not on KZread, they are just random/lowkey people no one even expects . Her name was Laura woods by the way.

Make sure you have at least 2 years of consistent experience using demo account or money that you are willing to lose, until then you don't know what you are doing and that's when beginers lose money. Trading platforms want to earn money out of your positions, so don't put all your hope into trading until you feel confident to earn it.
440 gang that was the most hilarious thing I’ve seen all day we make millions of dollars trading, but we suck at math🤷🏽♂️fuck it you’re a great teacher and The Best I explaining trading, you know the In-N-Out big fan of your work🙏🏽
