How do you overcome fear of losing?

@PetyaNL

Use a starting capital that you’re willing to lose

This is somehow a cliché that I’ve heard a lot in the context of trading, but it is true.

market doesn’t care about your feelings.

That is true for sure. but the point is when you can get hold of your emotions you’ll be at the risk of impulsive behaviors and just losing your money. That’s why emotional management is important in Forex trading.

Agreed. emotions such as fear in this case, won’t just fade away over time. Emotions are signs that signal us something is wrong and it need to be fixed.

I think the real question here would be how do you do that? Is it something you were born with or you kinda attained that?

@RosiePalmar I think he is right. How do you do that?

With all respect to you dear Mitchel, I think that won’t happen. It is like you say someone who has mental problems (such as a scruple person) to live his life and the problem will be fixed!

I doubt that will happen. based on experience I don’t think these things just fade away.

[Oli_jackson]

Exactly, they won’t just fade away. they should be dealt with properly other wise they’ll be even more damaging. For example inappropriately dealing with unpleasant emotions, such as expressing anger with violence, can also be damaging.
