Absolutely, taking too long to see and observe price movements will make it difficult for us to be disciplined in applying money management, rule trading and our trading plan, because when we look at the chart too long it will disturb our psychology
yeah thats what i mean, it can ruin our trading plan and disturbing our psychology and that is not rading with discipline of course, i often check the chart for every 20 minutes now ahaha, and see what happen with my entry lol

Mind
Mind is related to mindset, there is a lot that we need to discipline in this section. Starting from the concept of trading (gambling / business), fast-paced mindset, overconfident mindset and much more.

Money.
Discipline in the use of money also needs to be noticed, so we need to increase knowledge in managing finances or what is more commonly called Money Management. As a trader, discipline in the use of money plays a big role when we trade, so we must be disciplined.

Method
In this method or method section is related to trading techniques (trading system), and also anticipation (risk management). If we use a trading system without discipline, trust me, we can never be consistent with our income. For example like this:

The first month uses the A trading system, making 40% profit.
The second month uses system B, making 10% profit.
If we continue like this (not disciplined in using the trading system). Then our monthly income is also undisciplined and irregular.

The last point
Time
Discipline in the use of time is also very important, it is possible if our trading hours collide with our work hours. So we must discipline the use of time so we can do both.

Thank you

yes discipline on trade is very important because if not you will be nothing in fx market

Discipline knows no age, because discipline is a habit. If we are accustomed to always being disciplined, then at any age we will always be disciplined in everything, including trading

Maybe you are right, i dont know why but me, not as dicipline like myself 3 or 4 years ago. 
Maybe it is the stress or something

Discipline is a feeling of obedience and obedience to values that are believed to be their responsibility.

Discipline needs a compulsion to start, discipline cannot come naturally to us if we ourselves do not want to get used to it. maybe indeed you used to have no strong reason or strong will to apply discipline in your life

we should record each of our transactions so that in the future we can evaluate why we will lose in the future we will be disciplined not to repeat the same mistakes when trading losses.

Discipline in my opinion is a matter of habit, where we have to do this habit continuously in all aspects of our lives so that it can become a habit. it's useless if we evaluate the trades that we do but discipline has not become our habit so we will never be disciplined

Margin calls are really not good, but for beginners, I feel it is only natural to take a margin call because the trained mental discipline that must be done after the Margin call is an evaluation of why we are doing it, and in the future more discipline is observed in trading.
margin call is always experienced by beginners not only because of not being disciplined, maybe less yes the science of trading can also cause a margin call, or just try it. So if the margin call happens to beginners it may not be because it is not disciplined

My formula for discipline is to make the family the first motivation, and the intention to make money to support the family, and don't forget to prepare a journal to record our small mistakes and don't forget to read our journals so we can correct our little mistakes.

I agree with you. Discipline also requires motivation, with motivation we can force ourselves to always apply discipline. Because motivation will be able to touch our emotional side, so we will do everything we can to reach our motivation, especially if our motivation is family

indeed in the forex business if we have not been able to profit consistently then we are encouraged to study in a disciplined manner and also have high flight hours, usually a trader can be consistently profitable after plunging in over 3 to 5 years, with always disciplined learning. and also we are advised not to leave our main work before it can be consistent profit from forex
     
Actually as long as we already have a profitable system, clear rules, good MM and a clear trading plan can be ascertained if we can succeed in trading as long as we want to discipline all these components without being ignored. Because it's like applying for a job all the components are absolute conditions that we must fulfill to be able to be accepted to work. If we already have it, then our job is to stay disciplined to apply it.

Why is discipline so expensive in the world of trading? because that's our weapon in achieving success here. Like a programmer, the mandatory skill he must have is coding. The skill we must have in trading is discipline. With discipline we can generate unlimited income and we should lose everything without discipline. So from that discipline is expensive especially in trading.

I think the hardest thing is to control our minds, how to control our thoughts and emotions well, because without that all the strategies we have prepared will be in vain
yes its true mate

discipline really determines one's success in the world of forex as well as any technique and our skills in market analysis will be useless if we are disciplined in trading, so when disciplined all of our trading activities are controlled and can minimize losses

In my opinion, to help us in terms of discipline, we must have a triger. Something that can make us "forced" to discipline later. Namely the targets and dreams, with clear targets and strong dreams, then there will be something in us that can "force" us to always be disciplined on the rule, MM and the trading plan that we have made, because we will know if we are not disciplined apply it then our targets and dreams will never be achieved.
