Lessons learnt/ notes before trading

Hi guys,

Please give lessons learnt statements that you found useful for trading. They may not be applicable for everyone, but still useful so others can consider. Some from me:

  • Do not feel compelled to trade if you don’t find a convincing trade

  • Do not just look at EUR/USD. There are others there to look.

  • Try to make sure volume confirms the price action before starting.

Thank you

Always check a forex calendar at the beginning of every week and if necessary - every day before you start trading. A surprise high impact event can be a very unpleasant experience.

Trade on higher time frames, don’t trade inter day. Most of signals on lower time frames are fake.

Always use stop loss and don’t overleverage - the market can always go deeper than your pockets.
