However, as their experience and knowledge build and trading becomes more commonplace amongst their daily lives, this is likely to change.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: #0e101a; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\"><br \/>\nMany individuals who are trading CFD&#8217;s take part in these activities as a way to make money. However, there comes a time when the trader experiences <\/span><a style=\"text-decoration: none;\" href=\"https:\/\/eurusdforex.org\/how-emotion-drives-the-market\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: #1155cc; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: underline; -webkit-text-decoration-skip: none; text-decoration-skip-ink: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">certain emotions<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: #0e101a; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">. These may include fear, aggression, anger, avarice, and greed. When someone is experiencing negative emotions due to the downward movement of an asset value, that person must take action. You can do many things to eliminate or minimise these emotions from affecting your success as a trader.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-top: 18pt; margin-bottom: 6pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16pt; font-family: Arial; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">Use Positive Affirmations<\/span><\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: #0e101a; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">When you constantly tell yourself that things will go badly, it is only natural that that thought will enter your head when you are in a trade. Rather say positive statements about how the future could play out instead, this may take some time, but you can train your brain to think positively with continuous practice.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-top: 18pt; margin-bottom: 6pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16pt; font-family: Arial; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">Think About Your Losses as Capital for Future Trades\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: #0e101a; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">Instead of feeling like one loss makes everything else meaningless, look at each loss as an opportunity to learn something new. Think about how you can alter your strategy so that another trade won&#8217;t end up the same way and help you become a better trader overall while preventing future losses.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-top: 18pt; margin-bottom: 6pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16pt; font-family: Arial; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">Distract Yourself<\/span><\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: #0e101a; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">Traders need to realise when it is time to take a break from trading. That doesn&#8217;t mean quitting, but merely taking some time away from the screen. Go for a walk or engage in other activities that will lift your spirits and make you feel happy again. You can return refreshed and ready to give 100% again instead of less because you are discouraged by previous losses.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-top: 18pt; margin-bottom: 6pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16pt; font-family: Arial; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">Increase Your Percentage of Winning Trades<\/span><\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: #0e101a; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">Think about all the things that have gone wrong as well as those that have gone right. By making a conscious effort to pay attention to your wins and losses, you will be able to put things into perspective and remind yourself of how strong a trader you are. This realisation, along with others listed here, will allow you to control your fear and anxiety so that it does not cause emotions detrimental to success in CFD trading.<\/span><\/p><div class=\"xchjj64da2e7aca794\" ><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\"\n     data-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1998875270506674\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"5700030306\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n<\/div><style type=\"text\/css\">\r\n@media screen and (min-width: 1201px) {\r\n.xchjj64da2e7aca794 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n@media screen and (min-width: 993px) and (max-width: 1200px) {\r\n.xchjj64da2e7aca794 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n@media screen and (min-width: 769px) and (max-width: 992px) {\r\n.xchjj64da2e7aca794 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n@media screen and (min-width: 768px) and (max-width: 768px) {\r\n.xchjj64da2e7aca794 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n@media screen and (max-width: 767px) {\r\n.xchjj64da2e7aca794 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n<\/style>\r\n\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-top: 18pt; margin-bottom: 6pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16pt; font-family: Arial; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">Analyse the Market and Your Past Decisions<\/span><\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: #0e101a; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">When actively trading CFD&#8217;s, it is easy to get tunnel vision and focus on this particular trade. However, if you take some time away from the screen and do some analysis, you will be able to step back for a moment and look at your portfolio as a whole. This will allow you to see any patterns that have emerged in your trading strategy or ways that it could improve. It may also help to remember that every successful trader has lost money before, but they could recover thanks to knowledge gained during this process.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-top: 18pt; margin-bottom: 6pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16pt; font-family: Arial; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">Educate Yourself About Trading<\/span><\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: #0e101a; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">It is never too late for someone who wants to become a better trader.

For example, if you notice that your feelings of greed or fear typically occur just before a loss, then that is something that needs to be monitored closely. Many online sites allow you to track how you feel regarding different factors such as time, price, volume, etc. It may also help to keep a diary of your trading day so that you can look back and see if any patterns emerge. When you notice specific triggers for emotion, like greed or fear, you can take steps to counteract these feelings.<\/span><\/p>\n<div><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: #0e101a; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When traders first begin to deal with CFDs, they often find themselves experiencing a range of emotions, including excitement and&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1637,"featured_media":901,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[28],"tags":[],"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.up-project.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/900"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.up-project.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.up-project.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.up-project.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1637"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.up-project.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=900"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.up-project.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/900\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":902,"href":"https:\/\/www.up-project.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/900\/revisions\/902"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.up-project.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/901"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.up-project.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=900"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.up-project.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=900"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.up-project.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=900"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
