Fear of losing an opportunity is always harmful for trading and all of the emotions are harmful for trading results, actually, be it fear or greed. That is why traders pay much attention to their psychology and state of well-being. They realize that everything which is inside of their heads can have some impact on their profits. I know the traders who simly stop trading when they are in a certain mood and they cannot get rid of it. They understand that it is better to skip a day rather than losing the money on the market. That is why if you have such a feeling, then you should either get rid of it, or stop trading this day. Listen to your common sense rather than your heart.

With caution and research, Forex trading can be a lucrative pursuit. Traders must be aware of the many risks associated with trading currencies, including the potential to lose large sums of money.

I kind of had the opposite problem as a beginner because I was anxious to enter trades in case I would lose, but can definitely see how this is a problem.

The fear of losing opportunity is very dangerous. All newbies have this fear. When markets moves a lot in a certain direction, they become restless by thinking they are losing an opportunity of making money. As a result they try to open trade even if their system shows no signal, and they open trade and lose the money.

Many traders face the fear of losing opportunity when they are trading the Forex market. Some traders are able to overcome this fear and continue trading, while some traders are not able to overcome the fear of losing the opportunity, and they stop trading.

Happens to us all unfortunately, FOMO is one of the things you need to master as a trader. If an opportunity is gone best to sit and wait. This takes discipline which will come in time :)

Fear of losing your opportunity pushes you into a deep well

This happens with many newbies. After learning, they are eager to apply things in real trading. So, if they see a chance to enter a trade, emotions trigger and they fear that the opportunity may be lost if they wait any longer. Some traders actually earn profits in this situation but most of them lose because the decision made is emotion based and not well calculated.

Fear of missing out or losing an important opportunity is a common issue that affects almost every trader. FOMO stems from overly high expectations. It is a feeling that is most likely triggered when you see a more successful trader or when there's big news or during the period when the market is extremely volatile. All these can heighten the feeling of being left out but if you accept that there will always be another big opportunity, you can overcome this feeling to a great extent.

FOMO or fear of missing out is the most disease among traders that lack discipline, usually when traders do this, the end result will get disappointed, but the question is why the fear of missing out is dangerous but they still did it, it is like as waiting for bus and jump when the bus was running.

It is not possible for a trader to catch each and every trading opportunity. One needs to be patient and wait. Lack of alertness and discipline are the main reasons for losing any opportunity.
Moveover, a person should have contentment and should not possess any greed for earning more. The trader should remain calm even if he misses any opportunity.

If we already have good habits to avoid the fear of missing out hence will be able to control own selves to make good quality trading entries, we can use pending order to place in specific order price based analysis to getting best price

Opportunity can be lost but one should not be dejected for so. If one opportunity goes away, another will come soon and this is Forex. It is a blessing opportunity for all kinds of traders trading here. But traders should be devoid of revenge trading because no revenge on Forex cannot be taken.
