Mistake most people tend to make is to think losing is not part of a trade, of course it is, and it is how you manage the risks of losing to the reward you get per trade that matters. Now, it is not your fault if you lose, if you anticipated something and it does not work out as planned which made your stop loss to hit.

However, it is most definitely anyone's fault if they never had a stop loss in their plan and they are now in a big loss. These are totally two different case scenarios as far as I am concerned. Anyone that wants to trade, and does not stick it  in their head, that they have to account for losses too, are not ready to trade at all.

If we are into trading. We must be ready on all the good or bad things that may come on our way. Maybe we lose some in trading because we made the wrong decisions. So this year we must only trade cryptos that are well establish in the market.

I was thinking this morning and trying to used my trading experienced in analyzing my past performance in trading but I came to conclusions that most times that I lose,  my predictions of market directions is right just that something unexpected happened along the way.
Because of this unexpected reactions in market cycles that is why we should learn on how to manage risk.  Since there are many indicators and we can not used all of them at the same time I believe that there is no way we would be successful in trading except we learned how to manage risk and reduce our risk as minimum as possible.
2019, is here,  are we going to continue in losing trade?  I have decided to love my capital more than profits this year and I am not going to take much risky trade this year.
It is true that it is not our fault on losing in trading. No one expects that the cryptocurrencies will go down. There are many investors and traders who losing big amount of money because of abnormal movement in market.

There are  a lot of things that need to be learned in trading, if we keep on building our experience and learn the risk management then we could make profit, but its true that 2018 is not easy to make profit as the market really unpredictable and the volatility is very high, in 2019 hopefully the market will become more stable

Honestly not sounding like a good resolution. You must keep investing into bitcoin so that you will be getting wide opportunity to recover all your losses. Please note I am suggesting to go for only with the bitcoin and not with any other coins. Because, if you are keep buying on both rising and falling market you will be covering all the dips and peaks (given that you will be having enough capital left), it means you will be able to catch the most effective average buying level.

This way you will be ensuring a secured way of multiplying your capital. Most people buy sometimes and then going for watching the market and then missing out the perfect lower levels to enter. That is the reason and suggesting you to keep on buying as long as you are having some capital to do so.

Everyone should really know that there is always a risk in every step we make, so if you are losing today, try to stop it now and call it a day but never quit and come back again tomorrow. It is not always a bad day and it does happen once sometimes so don't take everything seriously because the odds might kill your funds for trading if you keep pushing your luck.
Yes.Trading has always its own risks so we should know how to take one step at a time.Learn to be more focused but not in the sense that you will be carried with your emotions.Remember you should trade for profits and not with your emotional satisfaction.If you happen to lose today,then do not be depressed because there are still a lot of days to perform trading.Soon you will have your own luck and determination to gain huge profits in trading.

That's why most traders lose. Movements don't happen as they should and TA doesn't work on the other hand, just in short-term.
2019, is here,  are we going to continue in losing trade?  I have decided to love my capital more than profits this year and I am not going to take much risky trade this year.
Looks like it's better to look from side unless the market gives us a hint.

If we made a loss in trading the problem is not only you there season and timings also be problem so be confident with your work it will be the key factor to improve yourself more stronger if you loss hope in your work especially in trading it will be very unconditional suffering for you that's why I am saying this.

Maintain a track of winning and losing trades. Its better if you can maintain 7:3 ratio that is if you have taken 10 trades in which 7 are winning and 3 are losing then you are at good trader.

Cut your loss, Let your Winning trades run is the best Rule that one can follow.

that's a good thought. Because most traders lose money because they are not careful in financial management. that's true, most of them invest with emotion and don't know how to cut losses.
This is also a great lesson for traders who failed in 2018.
Financial management is part of whole story, real image is bigger than what we thought. It isn't about "cutting losses" so traders are depend on volatility which happens via unknown factors.

Imo, every lose on trading is trader fault. Yeah i lose a lot too in trading, i already do analyze and etc but still lose. I can't blame market or other thing such as something 'unexpected', its just me not doing more deep analyze and too greedy with profit. With this, i can easily learn from my mistakes and thats how trader should do in my opinion.

We can't blame anyone but ourselves if we either lose or win. Those unexpected events is beyond our control so obviously, we can't do anything about it.

And as how much or how deep our analysis of the market, it might do on other directions because this market is based on speculation plus there's the factor of manipulation as well. In addition if we did mistakes in the past so let that be a lesson and hope that we learn something out of it so that we won't repeat. So best of luck to all traders this 2019.
Cryptocurrency trading is different level than other financial markets. Spot markets(forex) are considered as controllable by banking institutions compared to cryptocurrency which volatility is higher than sum of whole movements of  stock market. Financial institutions hire best economists for keeping under control economical events because system is created by them.

It's a very good thread for less experienced traders. When I just started I had an impression that I'm the only one making mistakes in predictions and losing as a result. It's true, that crypto trading doesn't follow the same rules and the market is still extremely volatile. Some things are actually outside of our possible judgment, though most losses are caused by things we can see but just don't take them into account

Last year was crazy for day traders a day I think I can say more of loss than profits in the bags of traders.  However,  I won't give up on how far green the market can go. It's good to love your capital more than your gains but would you rather watch everyone cash out big and lay in regrets? 2018 changed a lot of peoples perspectives as nearly most of their predictions went south.

Trading is a big lottery in which not everyone is lucky. And everyone who decides to try their luck in trading should be ready for losses.

Taking high risk at any stage of trading is not recommended, every trade should be taken with calculated risk, how much amount you can afford to lose in a single trade and how much max dd you can bear all time. Also trading needs lot of homework and proper planning like tracing levels, breakout etc.
100% profit in trading is practically not possible so accept the losses and move.

in trading, prediction is not advisable because it may lead to loosing some of your capital, it is better to play safe when trading and it is better to base on the current market not what will the market for the following day.

All trading actions are predictions because we do not know where the prices will go in the next day. The difference lies on how people make predictions. Some will rely on charts, news or even just blind predictions based on feelings. Losing in trading is normal and everyone should experience it. Patience is needed to wait for the correct times to reap the profit.

This is exactly what I have been trying to tell people! Your experience and expertise doesn't matter in bitcoin, you can be an amazing trader, you have no fault in the trading because there are things that nobody expects happening in bitcoin. How could anyone have guessed someone would sell a ton of bitcoin all at once when Craig did it, everything looked like bitcoin price was bound to go up and 6.5 thousand looked like the minimum bitcoin will be and it was all sunshine however one unexpected thing led to another and here we are the price is low.

Nobody, not even warren buffet could make great trades too many times in a row in bitcoin. A friend of mine turned 0.7 bitcoins into 40 bitcoins and lost about 15 bitcoins recently, he is still in profit but even the best traders will lose money eventually because unexpected things keep happening in this space.

But you shouldn't have lost out in that situation assuming that you're considering bitcoin value. If you're trading frequently from usd/btc to try and grow usd value then you should've had some sort of a stop-loss in place. If you're just trying to grow your bitcoin then there's little way you could've lost out.

Don't ask anyone because all fault is because us as player and I believe all trader will agree with me. We are the command center and all decision is because us, so we play with our mindset, asset and time. Hard to say if you don't agree with me and not repeat the same mistakes is the best way to keep survive. Valuable experience for all of us, keep disciplines with our strategy and good luck to you.

nothing is impossible
I think as a trader you do not focus on 1 single coin and stick to that one to get your profits. My opinion and what I do is that a take trades in any possible coin that shows me the right signals to apply my strategy. After that I take 50% of my profits and those profits I put in a coin I have confidence in. So at the same time you are trading multiple coins for daily profits and you put money in a coin you strongly believe in
