Have you ever "forced" yourself to trade?

I didn’t force myself to trade, but I definitely forced myself not to trade. As at some point you have to get rest from the market in order to be more efficient with your analyzing skills.

Or maybe to chill out from the negative emotions about losing trades. We’ve all been there.
Positive emotions also can be destructive for you in some cases. They make you believe that you’re invincible and all your market decisions are perfect. Which is simply not true mathematically.

As for forcing yourself to trade, then it’s a solid indication that maybe you don’t need to do this anymore. Maybe this endeavor is not for you.

This is also something I learned the hard way! :sweat_smile: Sometimes, it’s really better to step away from the markets even if you’re super excited to open up a trade. :sweat_smile:
