Emotion Plays No Role In Foreign Trading

All market trading is a form of gambling, and as any gambler will tell you the bets most likely to work out badly are ones based on emotion. All traders have gut instincts, but a trade should always be well thought out and based on facts or research.

Gut instincts may be right every now and then, but most of the time they are a result of greed or fear and can cost you a lot of money. Before each trade, use a diary to map out a solid plan of entry based on your forex trading system signals

For example, knowing when to exit a deal is vitally important, so you should know at which point you’re going to pull out, both on the high side (a winner) and on the low side (a loser). When the deal hits this price, follow your plan to exit no matter what your emotions are telling you.
