In one of my trades, I made 10.4% profits, which is the highest that I have made. So, I would say that it is my most successful trade to date.

Well, I am not sure in which context you are asking about the most successful trade. There are some trades that get you money and then there are some trades that get you skills that have the power of making you a consistently profitable trader.

I am still waiting for a trade that I can call my most successful trade. I have made some decent returns in the past but I don’t consider any of them as my most successful trade. I am sure that I can do better and have recently started to trade with Fxview and XTB that put no restrictions on trading style. So I suppose now I’ll be in a better position to trade as per my market analysis. My most successful trade is yet to come and I will share it here in some time. :)

Good spirit! We must never stop learning and never feel satisfied with what we have achieved so far. There is so much that can be done and achieved in the market. I have recently started to make some profits but don’t have a trade that I can call my best.

It’s hard to mention just one trade. There have been trades that got me profits and there have also been trades that prepared me for my future trades with the losses I had to face. And I truly believe that a trade that makes you a better trader deserves to be known as your most successful trade. I know I am getting a bit philosophical and all here but that’s how I truly think :)

In my last few trades, I have been making 15-20 pips on average. Before that, I was only making 1-2 pips. So, I think I can call these my best trades to date.

Forex Risky Market. So if you want to control this risk, you must maintain a 1: 2 risk ratio. That way you can see success.

I also agree and follow this ratio in my trading.

Reading many of the answers has given me a new perception and I cannot agree more. Success in monetary terms can still be measured in pips. But the real success is when you improve yourself over time and learn new skills to keep breaking your own records.

For every trader, success comes differently. Some traders are happy with 1-2% profits while there are many who don’t get satisfied even if they are making 25% per trade. It is all a matter of acceptance and believing that you can do better.

I’m just a curious trader here; what’s you win:loss %

I completely agree with you. Gone is the time when I was focusing on improving my profits. But after gaining some experience in the market, I realized that I should focus on improving my skills because that’s what will help me get profits in the long run. Since then, I keep trying new things with my brokers- Fxview and IG and write about them in my trading journal to learn from my own mistakes.

By doing forex making money is not easy. We may say access to the market is very easy and with little investment you can start it. To make money you need to learn the art of trading. But the learning process is long. You have to keep patience.

Do you think everybody becomes successful eventually, those with patience?! Just a thought, if only 1 was to be chosen, which one would it be: skills or patience?

That’s true! Continuous improvement is undoubtedly the best hedge against future risk. The market will as is its basic nature and a trader must be ready to continually improve to remain successful and competitive. Without improvement, you can lose your competitive advantage.

It’s true that somewhere, we all entered the forex market with the aim of making money. But with time I have realized that you are your own competitor. You have to focus on getting more successful than you were the day before.

Set new records and break them with every trade you execute. No need to settle for what you have already achieved. Instead, try to do better and bigger the next day. Though I am making consistent profits with ICM, I know I can do better. And when I am satisfied with what I have done, I will call it my most successful trade.
It’s true that the market offers never ending opportunities to traders. It is up to us how we understand and make use of them. It’s been a year since I started to trade forex and since then, I have tried several strategies to find the best for me. Some strategies worked better than others but I am sure that there are still many options that I am yet to explore.

I’d rather count patience as my skill. Sitting back patiently while waiting for the right trading setup among hundreds to pop-up on the screen needs some credit.

I’ll weigh the research and analytical skills to monitor the day-to-day chart patterns that can impact the financial market, in my opinion more than the virtue that’s patience.

The up and down, give and take fluctuations of the forex market can test the true patience of every trader. The ones who can wait patiently can succeed in the longer run for sure.
