Emotion is one of the worst human qualities that drive a person towards failure. Traders take any adverse decision anytime being grabbed by emotion. Successful traders never serve their emotion. Emotion is a drive that inspires a trader to take higher risk in the anticipation of earning more within a short time.

Emotions taken as a blanket term can inspire one to be successful. The difference is knowing how and when to control them and harness them where appropriate.

Yet emotions are also what makes us human. I think they can definitely hinder trading progress - but there can also be good emotions if you're successful. I try to celebrate small victories and introduce happy feelings about trading versus the anxiety and fear that I dealt with in the beginning.

People who are driven by their emotions are more likely to fail than those who are not. Traders make irrational decisions when they are swept up in their emotions. Traders who consistently outperform the market are immune to the effects of their own emotions. A trader's desire to make more money quickly can drive him to take on greater risk.

In general, emotions are good. We are humans and we are emotional. But if you ask about traders, so of course, we have to control them.
Time goes, you say? Ah, no! alas, time stays, we go.

To predict the market, there is no alternative to analysis, which is of two types including technical analysis and fundamental analysis. We are forecast the market only when you are a good analyzer. Analyzing power helps generate signals. We never say that all your forecasts will be accurate.

Yes, emotions can be harmful if they are not carefully managed. In terms of trading, I believe that you must be extremely cautious and knowledgeable; mere emotions will not be enough.

Emotions are a part of our life. In any area of life, our emotions affect our decisions. The same goes for trading. Trading in the forex market without emotions is impossible. It is important to keep emotions in check while trading to keep the focus on the same.

I don't believe that emotion causes significant harm. If you have complete command of it and know how to express yourself effectively. It will be advantageous to you.

Imo, emotions do affect your trading. Bad emotions like fear and greed have bad effects while good emotions like positive mindset can have good effects.

As the market is highly volatile, traders should not stick to only one type of trading because it’s not possible to run one of trading always in the market.

During the time of news occurring, the market becomes volatile and traders want to take this advantage. It leaves an opportunity for traders to make a quick buck.

Trading on emotions is quite harmful. It is better to keep them away from your trading. Trading is best when done on logic and statistics.

A forex trader needs to be rational and reasonable at all times. And emotional thinking makes them irrational and impulsive. They make wrong trading decisions by giving into their feelings and urges. This only leads to losses in forex. So we all have to rely on facts and logic instead of feelings and emotions while trading.

When a trader thinks that an impulse or even a negative motivation will make them win, they start to move in the direction of a negative spiral that takes a toll on their health and trades. Emotions work as an obstacle for such traders. Experienced traders, however, know that emotions are helpful and use them in the way they need to be used.

Emotions are a tool that professional traders use in trading to trade better and make better decisions. If they know how to trade with the right emotions, absolutely nothing can affect them. But if traders do not know how to control their emotions, their downfall is bound to happen.

We, humans are very emotional beings, but a trader needs to be very careful with emotional swings. In my experience, impulsive decisions rarely bring good results.
