Whilst chatting online last week to another student who had recently completed a personal mentorship programme with Sunil Mangwani, I asked how their trading was going?
The answer came back, rather melancholy, that ‘I’ve only made XY% profit this year’. To which my reply was great, that’s a neat profit! The ensuing online chat was then along the lines that constant steady profits no matter how big or small when compounded grows ones trading account nicely over time.
When starting out in the world of Forex if you can consistently make profits, whatever their size, then you are moving in the right direction. So if you are learning how to trade Forex, then set your overall expected profit targets at a realistic level and over time these will be exceeded and you can set a higher bench mark for yourself. The more pressure you put on yourself to make money, the less well you are likely to trade. Far better to focus completely on the process of trading than on the expected outcomes, as they will take care of themselves if you can get the process right and down to a fine art.
Top Trading Tip: Focus on the process of trading such as implementing your chosen strategy to perfection, along with good trade planning, risk and money management and the profits should take care of themselves.
