7 Trading Psychology Tips – Avoid the Most Common Trading Mistakes!
Trading is by no means an easy occupation, and especially when you’re getting started it may seem like an ocean of ungraspable information. But we would like to help you navigate that ocean by sharing a few simple trading psychology tips with you.
We’re all human and we all have emotions, some of which may be downright harmful to our day-to-day trading activities. So it’s important to be able to leverage the positive aspects of your trading psychology and use them to your advantage. Some of the best trading tips for beginners actually revolve around understanding and gaining control over your emotions.
For example, one of the best trading psychology tips you will ever receive is embracing the fact that losses are inevitable. Once you’ve accepted this, you can react to losses in a more calm and contained manner that won’t cloud your judgment. The same is also true for gains and learning to contain your excitement will also teach you how to improve trading psychology overall.
And speaking of not clouding your judgment, another one of our top trading tips for beginners is to give yourself a break. Mental exhaustion is the last place where smart trading decisions can come from and so you want to avoid reaching that point.
Watch the full video to learn how to master trading psychology in forex trading and in stock market trading. And stay tuned for our detailed trading tips, stock market examples and suggestions on how to improve your investment game.

Really thank you
Really needed to hear this after taking a loss of 6000 EUR on hotel stock 🙁 never going in tourism stocks anytime soon
David, for me, I really liked your 'slightly different' video, here. You touched on the many points for all traders, new and experienced, to keep mind of. Very excellent sidestep off your normal routine, and surely to help all your followers. Thank you, Sir.
it is all me. last week destroyed my portfolio
Thank you David for great video. I have started trading not a long ago but each time I lose the trade I learn a lot from it. When I started to trade small, risking to loose only 0.01 precent of capital or less I did not felt gread or fear and other emotions and it's a lot easier to trade when you are not controlled by your own emotions 🙂
That's useful information, thank you very much! More videos about risk management will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks David, brilliant!
Probably your most valuable video yet for traders.
Trading is 80% psychological and 20% asset picking.
Cheers
Great video. Saved for watching it again and showing it others.
Nothing is more important to the proper execution of a trade than one's own thinking & trading psychology is the most overlooked component of consistently successful trading. It's much easier to blame market conditions, but the truth is that the trader is often their own worst enemy. Great content like this is why I'm a subscriber, already looking forward to the next one!
Great video. For me personally, jumping into trading turned out to be a disaster as I started trading for the first time in February this year. You can imagine how that went. 😅
My biggest lessons are Risk Management and FOMO. Both are very important to keep in mind.
As traders, we should always be aware of the psychology, but it’s very important for someone else to remind us. Thank you for the big reminder after a rough week of trading. Truly appreciated!
I really liked this one David. Some very helpful tips which I’m learning from experience. Great to have this guidance to compliment the lessons I’ve learned the hard way. Thanks
Great format for a video David. More like these would be appreciated.
This is very helpful, thanks!

Thank you, I have learnt a lot from you.
Excellent video
Thanks!
Excellent advice David as I not long ago went through these emotions, the market was out to get me, I wanted revenge and it owed me right now this second. I clawed a bit back but took a large loss but I switched off the computer, put the kettle on and calmed down and in a strange way was glad I lost because I took heed of the situation and learned from it, you learn to improve and trade another day. 🙂
Thank so much, very helpful!
Make me feel like u genuinely care about your audience..wow!

The enemy while trading is and will be always self, not the Market.

If I had known these tips before I could have more money now. Good video. Greetings from Barcelona!
As a Poker Player (Texas Hold'Em) I was able to improve my game from beginner to an intermediate/advanced player (where I was able to win small non-professional tournaments (150-160 players $5000-$6500 top prize). Now that I am slightly older and I have the time and the interest, in trading stocks. This is what I am now spending my time doing. I see a lot of similarities from a psychological/mathematical perspective between the the two activities (applying a scientific/mathematical approach to essentially a game of chance). Thanks for the video. (p.s. still a beginner at the stock trading game)
David, can you please do a video where u analyze some of your own trades that resulted in losses. This way we can also learn what u have learned from these trades. Thanks
can you please do a video how to mange stock portfolio ( When to increase or decrease the weight of a stock in the portfolio )
