Controlling our own emotions is an activity that we have to do since we feel excessive emotions because carrying out something will sometimes make us emotional when we don't reach our goal. I think this is all a normal thing. I also don't blame you, but if you continue like this, it's the same as ruining your dreams, it's the same as ruining your journey to becoming a successful trader because every defeat has a silver lining. Every defeat doesn't need to think too much. There must be a way out. important Calm yourself first

Controlling emotions is very important for us, especially when we dive into a world that uses psychology because emotions are part of what we do when we open a position because when we trade forex and we lose, usually those emotions will appear. That's why we have to be able to do things so that our emotions don't get too high. Because when our emotions are too high, we will complain, it will be easy for us to do negative things, such as opening lots of positions that don't have settings. We have to be able to avoid all of this so that later our capital will be stay safe

When you trade forex we are definitely not free from emotions, therefore there is a lot of advice that we receive from a teacher or mentor that we must be able to control our emotions and I agree with that because the fear is that when we fail we will definitely be emotional. sure, but when we can control our emotions safely then everything we do will definitely be achieved perfectly

As traders, controlling emotions is something that we must learn or use so that we can be calm when trading. Usually these emotions arise when we face a defeat or failure to achieve our goals and these emotions are normal when they appear, but that doesn't mean we let them go. just like that, our emotions take control of ourselves, we must be able to take action so that our emotions are stable, we must be able to be sincere, we must be able to trade calmly and accept all risks, so that our emotions will subside and not be prolonged.

The more we understand how to control our emotions well, the more we understand how to be able to make up our minds when we fail to trade because by controlling our emotions we will definitely have a way so that we can make all the words better. When we fail, we make sure our emotions are straight, especially When we use large amounts of capital, we definitely do something to get our capital back, but in the end we always fail because we use emotions, therefore we should avoid traits like that. Emotional traits are negative traits that actually damage us and destroy our dreams.

I think emotions are a natural thing, a human element and a good process for learning. Sometimes traders have to be emotional first, and later of course traders will learn how to control their emotions well and correctly.

one of the most difficult things when we experience the learning process is using stable emotions because in my opinion there are many people who are smart at analyzing, smart at using money but not smart at managing their own emotions, therefore emotions and psychology are what our mentors always teach us to do. always take priority because it is true that when emotions come, we will immediately lose our knowledge. We will become different people. We are more concerned with our emotions in opening positions rather than trading in a logical way, therefore we must always try to manage our emotions. us well so that we avoid serious defeat

In my opinion, controlling emotions is an important thing when we do an activity. When we trade, emotions will determine whether we can survive or not. If we can't control our emotions, we will fail. We won't be able to make a profit in a good way. When we can use emotions stably, we will definitely be able to survive, we will definitely be able to get big profits.

Traders must control their emotions so they are not easily influenced by fluctuating market conditions, especially when there is news.

When you are able to control your emotions well then in my opinion that is a natural thing so that later you can get big profits and you are able to reach a good emotional level because when you fail of course everything will become even more chaotic and that's where it's time for you. You must be able to learn to control your emotions stably and of course later you will become calmer.

Indeed, in trading we have to be able to remain calm in the face of anything so that emotions are maintained, imagine if your emotions were released and you traded with full lots and what would happen.

Controlling emotions is a wise attitude in my opinion here when you are trading forex and you encounter losses in the middle of the road. In my opinion, the first thing you have to do is control your emotions because when you are able to control your emotions well then you can be calm when trading. You won't panic when you fail. In fact, you feel that this is a normal thing. There is still plenty of time to restore something that was lost with an evaluation, so everything will feel more relaxed and not too emotional.

You let your emotions ruin your trading and you can't control it, so it will become a habit and then without you realizing it, suddenly you are on the brink of collapse.
