It is perhaps not surprising therefore to find that the most commonly seen Forex trading mistake is that of traders breaking their own trading rules.The greatest danger any foreign currency trader faces is that of emotion and trading rules are established quite simply remove emotion from the trading equation.
Another danger for most traders is that posed by greed. None of us like to think of ourselves as being greedy but this is particular deadly sins that is always close by and has a habit of creeping up on us when we are not paying attention.
A successful trader can quite easily find himself in a winning run of trades earning perhaps $2,000 a day and think to himself that, if he can get this sort of profit day in and day out, it has to be possible to earn $2,500 or $3,000 every day. However, in order to test this theory the trader needs to push himself by relaxing his trading rules so that they can make up a few extra trades each day.
With a bit of luck profits may well increase over the following days, but how long is this going to last? The answer in most cases is not long and time and again traders find that any short term gains disappear. The result is all too often that they move from being one of the truly successful traders to being one of the 90% of traders who regularly lose money.
It is very easy to allow greed to tempt you into breaking your own trading rules and once in a while this strategy will prove successful. However, you are now beginning to trade on emotion and, as with many things in life, having done it once it is much easier to do it again and again.
