Number one biggest mistake new trade do is they treat forex trading as a money machine. Open trade and make profit. They think it is the easiest job in the world. But in reality you need profound understanding of the market. My advice to new trader is gain necessary knowledge and skills.

I think the biggest mistake for new traders would be their overconfidence and desire for more and more money.
Newcomers should focus on others inevitable part of trading besides acquiring good trading knowledge. Controlling emotions , avoid revenge trading , overtrading , money management ,RR and much more things they have to observe for avoiding unfortunate loss.

Yes, that does happen a lot. It is not as easy to make profits in forex as newbies think it is, and keeping an eye on the profits is a mistake they don’t realise they are making.
Yes totally agreed.. The biggest mistake for a new trader is to be over confidence and greed for more and more money. Newbies without having proper knowledge trade high risk product and ends up with making losses.

The biggest mistake is trading with the lack of knowledge and skills which ultimately ends up gaining a loss. Train yourself first before entering into the trade market.

I absolutely agree Martingupttil, newbies don’t think about the amount of effort required for learning trading. All of those years where now successful traders earned only peanuts while learning trading, is not seen by many people. Sometimes it can take a lifetime to make substantial profits.
Biggest mistake in my opinion. Over leveraged, Not cutting losses quickly enough -poor risk management and risking to much per trade.

The biggest mistake is to start trading without trading plan.
As result you face loss as you basically dont know what are you doing.

Yes, when a trader joins a new trading, Forex seems like a money making machine to him. That idea is completely wrong. If you maintain a plan and discipline, you can make some profit at the end of the month.
If you don't know about trading analysis, if you don't know about brokers, it will become the biggest mistake in your trading.

True. The second biggest mistake is to risk what you can`t afford to lose.

There are many new people who don’t look for features which they require but go with other recommendations. When I started out I tested a whole lot of brokers and trading platforms on their demo accounts and only after extensive testing of different strategies on FXCM and fxview, I went live.

Biggest mistake for me was to start trading on a live account first. I wish I had used a demo
