šŸ’” IDEAS Forex Investment Mistakes

1. Blind investments

Many currency investors have found deposits of different exchange rate, you want easy money into higher-yielding currencies deposits, charge higher interest on the deposit. Thus regardless of the trend Exchange, the exchange rate is high or low, blindly Exchange. This idea is real, anyway, I still want to do a deposit, why should anyone care that a little bit of bad?

In fact, just change your point of view, they would have realized the idea of unilateralism. For example, if a customer after completing the Exchange, within six months, fell 3% and he only got 2% after tax interest, then he was the loss of 1%.

In fact, foreign exchange trading, in addition to the exchange of professional knowledge has certain requirements, the investors also closely related to the country's economic and political situation. No matter what to do foreign exchange investment, should make some preparations in advance about movements and trends of various currencies, investment level when the analysis is relatively safe, reasonable investment, investment income, but also to be responsible for their own investment real.

2. Risk awareness

Many investors think that Forex trading is a time, don't lose the money invested. In their view, investment no foreign exchange risk, exchange rate goes up to throw, make the difference; exchange rate, deposit money, earn interest from it, as long as there is interest, you can always make up for the loss, big deal longer.

As everyone knows, there is risk in any investment, when investing in a necessary stop must be established, so as to avoid certain foreign investment risk. For example, when the euro, many people are optimistic about its prospects, buys at 1.13 euros euro has entered a long way to fall, however, the minimum fell to 0.82 per cent and a fall is more than two years. If you interest to compensate for such losses, could be at least 78, or even longer.

But if stop loss would not have been so amazing, and there may be a "post" in long decline in investment income. Stops are at higher prices in order to save the power, have the opportunity to invest in low again.

There is no free lunch, investments have to be aware of this danger, to think about risk, and wants to return.

3. Copycat

Investors more focused investment, such a situation has happened. Many investors around one or two "large taxpayer" to learn from their experience. Such investors are mostly about his lack of confidence, "green with envy" someone else's income, idolatry, and blindly, no investment of its own ideas, what other people buy themselves with what to buy.

But when investing in Forex, everyone has their own opinion, everyone has their own reality, others fit, he may not be a good fit. Again a brilliant performance also represent the past, not foretell the future.

Therefore, investments must be of your own, you know, the opinions of others can only do reference, his analysis and opinions should be used to determine exchange rate movements, and to guide their investment directions. Experience is the gradual accumulation, not blindly, resulting in unnecessary losses.

4. Make a buck

Many investors when investing in, feeling that their currencies rise more slowly, have risen less frequently bought and sold, but the effect is opposite and profits.

In fact, frequently need to always pay attention to market trends, and most investors are Office workers, without devoting too much attention to focus on currency fluctuations, thus effects of foreign investment that is less effective. Moreover, if repeatedly buying and bad happens will make investors unbalance, trapped in a vicious cycle.

Therefore, currency investors to try to overcome my impetuous emotion, waiting for his opportunity. Foreign investors must fully believe in yourself, for putting peace of mind take the best opportunity to take the band towards the revenue maximization.
 
I’ve definitely been guilty of chasing hype in Forex—just copying others or jumping in for quick gains without really understanding the risks. But over time, I’ve realized that’s not how you build long-term success. Now, I try to do my own analysis and actually understand what’s going on with each currency. I’ve learned to respect stop-losses too—it sucks to take a loss, but it’s better than watching your account bleed. It’s not about fast money anymore. It’s about being smart, patient, and treating this like a real business, not a casino.
 
every possible mistake and issues the endeavour of FX trading may have, the most striking of all isn’t quite risk management to me (as it can be easily dealt with using simple arithmetic and percentage based risk modellings).

The greatest problem lies in ā€˜mental blindness’, which I’ll characterise as not knowing what we don’t know, and thinking that whatever school of thought we are first (or subsequently) trained in, we think that is the best already.

There are not just the typical mean reversion and trend following concepts to trade with FX (or any other asset class for that matter). There is another realm completely out of touch with what is regularly advertised or shelved on bookstores - non-directional trading.

While the common adage is that directional trading (without hedge) nets ya the greatest profit potential (which is entirely true), it cannot survive the perpetual run. Even if we are correct in the first 100 trades, eventually we’ll hit a sample set that we’ll run into losing runs when market conditions start changing.
