The best results you will do if you’re not afraid of losing
Surely many of you are surprised and wonder how is possible to make so much money easily on demo accounts, but when it comes to real ones, you constantly lose? Well, to a seemingly complicated question the answer is quite simple; because on demo account you don’t have fear from loss.
In my point of view, this is probably one of the most important psichological issues in trading. You have to deal with yourself how to reduce the fear from loss and when you manage to solve that problem, you will become a constant winner on real accounts as well. Think of this issue hard and you will notice why something like this is so important and why there is a huge difference in between those two types of accounts, demo and real.
I always said, it’s much better to learn trading with $500 on real account, then with $100,000 on demo account. Why? Because, a demo account will give you a fake sense of security and comfort and when it comes to real account your mind will not be able to accept the real loss. You will simply be lost because you didn’t feel how the real loss affect your mind and your future trades. After the first real loss, especially if it’s big, you will feel pain and you will be afraid to enter in to the next trade. And that’s the most important thing in trading. In forex you can’t afford to be afraid and anyone who fears from loss simply can’t be the winner in this business.
I mean, each time when you enter in to trade you are taking a risk and you need to accept that loss is simply unavoidable, it could happen any time. That’s why you need to detect your losing point of no stress. What that means? It means, that the loss which is possible in each your trade will not disrupt you psychically. It means that after the loss you can continue with trading like nothing happened. It means that after the loss you have no fear from the next trade. That’s “the point of no stress”.
Sure, most of this depend on risk you’ve took, but I will not dedicate this post to risk, you can read about that in my RISK page, but exclusievelly on fear from loss. I know it’s related, because large loss is mostly the biggest problem which causes fear, but anyway. You need to be aware of fear and that the same can cause you a big problems in trading. That’s why you need to set yourslef a rules which can be acceptable and confortable for yourself. There is no general rules in this, because, someone can accept bigger loss from the other one, it all depens. We are all different as a persons and as a traders as well, so detect the point of no stress for yourself before it will be too late.
It takes time for your brain to accept any kind of loss, be aware of that. But, when you finally release the brain from fear of loss, you will become a winner and you will be able to make an outstanding results, you will make huge money by trading.
Forex is the hardest way to easy money. Yes, the money comes easy when you solve all the problems in trading, fear from losing is among the biggest ones. Remember, never trade with money you can’t afford to lose!
For the end of the article, I must write this. Sure, you must use a DEMO account at first, but just to get the insite of how everything works, to get the know the platform and all the advantages. My advice is to open a demo account with similar capital which you will invest latter for real, not bigger. That’s very important.

Dobar clanak, da definitivno veliki rizik cini vecinu problema za psihu kod vecine,jer kao sto kazes lako je izgubiti a vratit je malo tezi problem ,sad riskirat 20,50 posto cijelog kapitata u jednom trejdu je po meni ludost bez obzira koliko se neki trejd cinio super siguran mi nemamo kontrolu niti pokrecemo market da bi imalo smisla se upustit u toliki rizik, meni je rizik do 2%max prosejcan trejd cak oko 1% tu se osjecam , ugodno , napravio sam jedan manji account sa svotom koju sam spreman izgubiti za neke vece rizike kad vidim situaciju, to nikako nebi radio s glavnim accountom , ovako ako izgubim nije strasno mogu ponovo pokusat za par mjeseci ,a da to pocnem radit s glavnim pitanje je di bi granica bila vjerovatno dok nebi dosao do nule

Da, jasno. Nego, nije problem u preuzimanju velikog rizika u single trade-u, već u prihvaćanju istog. Zbog toga sam i napisao da ne želim pisati u članku o riziku, koji je direktno vezan za problem straha, ali je isto tako neizbježen. Stoga, kakav god rizik bio određen u trejdu, isti kada se dogodi treba biti apsolutno prihvaćen, a to je očito veliki problem većine trejdera.
To je dobro rješenje, odrediti jedan račun na kojeg ćeš prebaciti npr. 10 ili 20% sredstava sa glavnog računa i onda možeš riskirati 50% bez problema, što ukupno ako se i dogodi iznosi 5 ili 10% gubitka ukupno uloženog kapitala. To sam ja radio kroz moja testiranja FXtreme Aggressive strategije.
Btw. Što se tiče članka, rekao bi Bill Lipschutz > “You have to know what it’s like to feel pain, but you can’t be afraid of it” 🙂

Mario, ne da si djelom u pravu nego milion posto!Cesto sam se pitao dok sam bio na demu ma sto ovi govore ja cu se ponasati isto na demu i live ,e neces prva prepreka je noc,neces mirno spavat ako gobis 100-200 eura jos ako si bez SL jos gore sto ce biti ujutro! Na demu ti to nije nista par dana i trend se preokrene,barem trenutacno i ti izlazis prvo bez gubitke drugo u plusu i tako u nedogled! Najgore mi je kad popusim pola racuna ,zbog moje tkz sigurnosti uletim ko sivonja sa lotom dva ,i ode pola racuna pa sljedecih pola godine trejdam sa o.25 lota da se vratim i to sam uspio dva puta!Stah je zeznuta stvar,mozda nebi bio toliko vazan kad bi bili svi u stanju kad izgube 5000 eura da mogu staviti novih 5000 ali stvarnost je drugacija,pogotovo ako nemas za novi polog onda radis gluosti jos vece samo da te ne izbaci platforma ! Kod mene u pocetku je bila pohlepa ,market kao da je znao da sam novi pa sam sve pogadao ,pohlepa me uzela pa sam nakon par mjeseci pao 50 posto,sad sam pohlepu zakljucao i shvatio da sam to dobivao jer je godinama prevladavao trend jacanja USD prema svima ,pa samo sell dok ne bude plus! A sada valutni,trgovinski ratovi,Trump tvita o visini tecaja ,svi nesto spletkare i na kraju broker vara -malo previse! L.P.

Kako bi ja rekao sox, lako je izgubiti novac na forexu, ali ga nije lako vratiti. Pogotovo ako izgubiš tako pola računa u jednom trejdu nakon čega se potpuno psihološki poremetiš, a da nisi ni svjestan toga.
Sve u svemu, rizik koji odrediš trebaš potpuno prihvatiti u tom trenutku i biti svjestan da se taj gubitak može dogoditi bez problema. Dakle, ako si odredio 1% rizik i gubitak se dogodio, to sigurno neće uopće utjecati na tebe. No, ako si odredio 50%, ti si zapravo uvjeren da se isti ne može dogoditi, a sa druge strane te strah da slučajno ne dogodi, jer sta ako izgubiš pola računa? To je to o čemu pišem. Kod takvog trejda ti više nisi komodan, nisi opušten, neprestalno pratiš kretanje, misliš se šta ako krene naopako, pa ga možda onda i zatvoriš, a merket krene u tvom smjeru, pa ti opet uskačeš, a onda market okrene, ti zatvaraš opet…i tako u nedogled. Trguješ u strahu od gubitka, što obicno znači siguran gubitak.
Zbog toga sam i napisao da postoji strategija, ali za svakoga ona mora biti prilagođena osobnosti, karakteru trejdera. Dobar risk management definitivno jako puno znači kod oslobađanja od straha i prilagođavanju psihe na prihvaćanje neizbježnih gubitaka.
