If you have been trading or planning to start and have wiped out an account, don’t be disheartened. I know I pretty much wiped out a trading account when I first started, now I’ve developed a system where I make a consistent 100% annually. You see most of the successful traders we know have loss their entire account at least once before learning from their mistakes and start consistently turning over a profit on an annual (daily, weekly or monthly depending on your trading styles and goals) basis.
1. Don't open a trade just because it is cheap. The only reason to open a position is when the underlying security looks set up to make a decent move.
2. When you open a trade, start looking for signs that you were wrong. If you see them, then get out before your stop loss is ****uted.
3. Good trading should be boring, like doing the same thing over and over again. If there’s one thing I guarantee in trading, it’s that "thrill seekers" or adrenaline junkies get their accounts grounded into tiny bits and pieces.
4. Always be in control and aware of your own sea of emotions. Every trader’s downfall will come from not being able to control your emotions. If you are screaming at your computer screen, begging your stocks to move in your favor, you have to stop and ask yourself, "Is this rational?" Ease in. Ease out. Keep your stops. Don’t scream and shout.
5. The turning point of when amateur traders turn into professional traders is when they stop searching and hoping for the "next great technical indicator" and start managing their risk on each trade.
6. Trading is simple, but it isn’t easy. If you see yourself having a future in this industry, forget about "hope" and stick to your stop loss.
7. You are buying and trading on the emotions of other traders, not the actual stock. You have to be aware of the human psychology and emotions that constitute trading.
8. Always remember, trading is supposed to be a business. So treat it like one by not letting your emotions get in the way, stick to your stop loss.
9. If you come into trading with the idea of making “big money overnight,” you’re better wake up and smell the coffee. Most accounts have been blown because of this “account killer” mindset.
10. Beware of your number one enemy, yourself! If you start to get too excited, beware! As excitement clouds your judgment, it starts to increases your risk.
1. Never invest money into a real Forex account until you practice on a Forex Demo account!
2. Go with the trend!
3. Always take a look at the time frame bigger than the one you've chosen to trade in.
4. Never risk more than 2-3% of the total trading account.
5. Put emotions down. Trade calm.
6. Choose the time frame that is right for you.
Here are some simple tips that will help you increase your profit potential prevent you losing money.
1. Select your first broker
When you first decide to trade Forex you will need to locate a reliable broker. It's very important that you familiarize yourself with the software the broker uses for making trades analyzing the market any other features they may offer. Many have a training or tutorial account that will allow you to signup make trades for free. Use this to your advantage before just jumping in tossing your money in.
2. Get simple method you understand
In forex trading many people think that the more complicated a method they use in forex trading the more likely they are to make money. The fact is that is not a truth the simple systems work best. As you know there are two main ways to analysis the currency rate: fundamental technical analysis. Simple systems are more robust easier to trade with discipline as you underst the logic can therefore follow it with confidence when it has a losing period.
3. Trade the big trends not trade frequently
Although short term trading long term trading are both good you have to catch the big long term trends that make the big profits. The big moves in forex trading with optimum risk to reward come just few times a year so don't trade for the sake of trading wait for these moves - These are the that will make you the big profits that's why you're trading.
4. Work smart not hard
Once you have a system your happy with that's it. People go on about working hard in forex trading to educate yourself but once you have your system stick with it. The market doesn't give you extra dollars for effort you get your reward for trading correctly.
Forex trading is risky so you need to manage your money place your stop order far enough away the market action to allow for volatility.
Placing stops too close to entry not taking enough risk dooms most traders to fail.
Also when you have a profit don't move the stop up to quickly be patient give the trade room to breathe.

9. If you come into trading with the idea of making “big money overnight,” you’re better wake up and smell the coffee. Most accounts have been blown because of this “account killer” mindset.
