@Unellene Finally someone said it and you are absolutely right . Many newbies step into forex thinking it's a money making machine and every trade is going to make them a millionaire which is a solid dream that never comes true. I know how tough it is to make even a dollar in forex. Forex isn't a one day job, it requires a lot of dedication and commitment, which many fail to understand.

Hit the nail on the head there. Forex is hard. FACT. New traders need to understand that before making their first deposit

The most dangerous mistake is to think that forex trading is all about making money right away. Such a misconception has led to the massive loss of budgets of such naive traders. So, in order to decrease the possibility of losing everything right away, you should forget the idea that you are able to make lots of money in a week.

Everyone wants to become a successful Forex trader, but few want to trade properly. Although Forex trading is challenging, making money in this market is possible since it is easy to invest money.

According to me, overtrading and letting the emotions overpower the skills are the common mistakes that traders make.

To avoid mistakes in this industry, you need to trivially work on your level of knowledge. For example, a demo account of the Amarkets broker turned out to be an excellent option for me.

Make your mistakes as your learning things to become successful in this market.

I agree trying demo account is good. But I would say trying a demo account in a broker cannot prove how legit the broker is

It is important for a trader to analyze their strategies and learn from the mistakes they make. Forex is a wide market and there is always something to learn.

@BrokerChoice Thank you and i feel every trader should understand the complexity of the market, and not treat it as a childs play

@pathsofglory it's high time people should start taking forex trading as a serious business. Especially the new ones , they should follow the principles of trading and be very disciplined in every course of action.

The exchange market (forex) is fashionable traders for varied reasons. It’s highly liquid – with quite $US 5 trillion on the average traded a day – is open round the clock Monday to Friday and is stable enough for brokers to supply leverage (meaning traders can borrow more against their capital) on trades.

The drop off rate for forex traders is substantial. In fact, evidence suggests that as many as 95% of would-be traders last no quite a couple of years.

Here are some common mistakes, that Forex traders makes:

1. Overconfidence: Although in Forex it's necessary to act confidently , some traders tend to be overconfident and aren't aware of market signals. Although it seems a simple matter, education in these matters is significant before beginning to trade.

2. Not having a trading plan
If you’re getting to become a forex trader, you would like a trading plan. Acting without one will almost certainly cause losses, so before you start confirm you sit down and write up an inventory of rules to guide your trading and money management strategies.

3. No practical affinity with economic process
No one sets up as a forex trader without first undergoing training and research. However, having gained the crucial start-up skills, complacency can set in.

4. Be patient: Forex may be a business for patient people. Anxiety are often a nasty companion in currency trading. stick with your plan and be disciplined. Experienced traders wait quietly, for days or maybe weeks, for the proper opportunity to happen .

5. Risking quite you'll Afford
One common mistake new traders make is misunderstanding how leverage works. Familiarize yourself with margin and leverage to assist avoid accidentally putting more capital in danger than you had planned.

6. don't hold on to losses: Sometimes, due to a “hunch”, some traders hold on to losing positions. They believe that, at any moment, it's going to change. you would like to recollect that Forex can last an extended time and, seeing your profits fall, can even affect you psychologically.
