Topic: Positivity goes a long way. (Read 418 times)

Consistency only won't make you to become victorious because you can stay consistent and still be losing. You also have to be consistent with learning to develop and improve your trading skills to stay in profits. Most traders are misguided and they have the wrong ideas about how trading should be done. Trading work well for people that have the ability to be patient to learn and not for people that are impatient. Staying consistent when you're not making any progress is a waste of time and at the same resources, staying positive when you're not having any good outcomes from your trade is a waste of your time and resources. Don't continue to do anything that isn't making you money but making you to lose. Trading isn't the only way to make money hence when it isn't giving you good outcome, don't waste your time but move on to try other things for a change.

I am doubting if I'm going to say subjective but something tells me that it is really tough. If we already see that a person is skilful and passionate, then we will actually be amazed by it and not that we will underestimate them. For the other, we should not underestimate as well because they might be serious about it and there are some that only hides it. Lies only occur if we have bad motives but if not then there is no point on doing it and they can as well make a research on their own, so a liar can still get caught out.

That is for sure. Apart from earning big, if in case the trade didn't go well, at least they won't lose a lot of money.

Totally depends on a certain individual on how they would really be accepting things accordingly and we do know that there are individuals who do hear up others advises and really that have eagerness to learn from other experiences on which they would really be applying into themselves. Its normal that there would be some feeling of discouragement but actually this isnt really that shocking nor something new because we do know that on the time or moment that you do deal up with something end facing up some normal loses and failures then there are those who do directly quit up and never look back, but there are those people who do stand up and learn from their mistakes and continue on what they've been doing. We do live on a life on which not everything is guaranteed in terms of outcomes and results on which at the moment that you are deciding whether you should continue or not. Positivity is something that you are the ones that be applying into yourself because if you are a type who do get easily discourage with just few errors and mistakes then you would be having that life on which not to be progressive just because you do really just that easily give up without trying out to do something or making up solutions into the issues and problems that you are really that facing into. It will really be just that depending into certain person or individual because not all be sharing up on the same mindset and preferences.

To become a successful trader is not impossible, but most of us fail because of our inconsistency.
I know we tried our best to have a profitable trade, but the problem is that we are too impatient and then started to lose control of our emotions. I see this as a big challenge, especially for newcomers. Maybe this is how trading journeys would be—full of challenges and difficulties. But there is one thing I was sure of: staying positive can't happen instantly. There are full of downsides and lost hopes, especially when we lose, and sometimes we say, "I quit".

What you hear from professional traders that experienced both the positive and negative things from trading, it will make you not to make the mistakes they made that make them to experience the negative side , and it will help you to last long in trading without fear of lost, likewise the positive side, the best strategy some traders are using to earn income from trading daily or weekly, it will make you to stay long in trading because you are earning what other traders are earning in the market which is the positive side every traders want to be enjoying in trading if possible.

I was on YouTube and I came across one YouTuber bumped into one one popular Hollywood actor, he acted Goblin in Spider Man. Out of the many questions he asked, there is this one I like the response very well. He was asked, what advice do you have for younger actors that are coming up and he responded that he doesn't gives advice about career because you have to find out your own way, his path is different and his time is different as well, this applies to everything in life.

In trading, you have to understand because one person couldn't make that doesn't mean you can't do it, be positive and have some good faith but at the same time, have some caution along the way. I have trade this month and I have made some decent money. I have traded some meme coins and I made my money from it even though I don't like he idea of holding them but who cares? It's money before anything but I close my position quickly before liquidation hunt began.

Positive mindset always breed good results, it just have to take some time in most cases before they are achievable. If not for the positive mindset and believe that most traders have of the market, I don’t think most of them will still be profitable traders today. It is certainly true that there is a line between losses and gain and only few pass that narrow line of losing and get into that of wins. Today, it is said that traders that are more profitable are less than 2% of total traders in the world, if that is what all traders have in their mindset, I don’t think they can be profitable in the long time, but will use this statement to discourage themselves. Always be positively minded even when others are not positive in their statements to you on what you plan to achieve. The patient one and the one person that is positive always wins it in the end.

positive attitudes decides what you do in life. Although you cannot influence the markets but if you go with a positive attitude and a positive winning then you probably can identify things and see things better. Having a positive attitude and seeing the market as your friend rather than your adversary is quite important.  When you see the market as your friend the mental outlook is different and there is this easy flow of this and control that you feel. It is not a deluded thinking but a thorough planned out way to trade in such a way that you know you are going to make some consistent profit even if it is just a small one because I believe that making small consistent profit is better than making huge one time profit. It is in the consistency that we build skills and experience.

If a trader is responsible, he won't get himself in a very bad situation.
Surely, he may lose funds too, but he won't lose as much as the one who is consumed by greed.
And he will climb back eventually from such a situation because he will learn about the mistakes made, whereas the other would be ignorant of them because he is so frustrated.

There is nothing wrong with that because you've prepared the newbie's mind and have also hinted at the risk involved. This is a good way of balancing it and I don't think any good teacher will do otherwise. However, I will emphasise the risk in trading but will also encourage the intending trader on how special and talented people can make headway in it. Such a person could be an example, and without giving it a try, how would he know?

It is not you who frustrates them, but the market does.

Most traders, especially beginners or those who do not learn from their mistakes and those who are controlled by greed and fear will lose and get frustrated sooner or later.

Traders need warning and caution more than they need positivity because the market is full of risks and if they get encouragement they will give up caution and suffer a lot of losses and will get frustrated anyway.

Positivity makes sense if the trader itself is capable to what he’s doing, otherwise no matter how you give positivity to a person, if he doesn’t have the potentials to be a real and good trader, it will still end up useless. However, there’s always room for improvement, that is if the trader is willing to grow, knowing trading, everything can be learned and eventually mastered.

If you are a successful trader yourself, your positivity will be truthful. If not, then you will be disingenuous. It is the lie that is presented as the truth at such moments that look very mean. Not everyone is given to trade; everyone can try, but not everyone can go through all the steps to success. Going through all the stages of training, having a lot of not only patience but also funds, which at first you will simply lose, gaining experience, is difficult for many to bear. Therefore, your positivity is appropriate when you are ready to help hand in hand the person to whom you say that being a trader is the path to success. But if your affairs are not so good, it is better to tell about all the holes.

Trading is risky for the small investor which makes him doubt enough to get his money back and the possibility of losing capital. No it can't be possible if he keeps buying crypto with his small dollar and until a possible time that he might find it convenient to sell. Trading is great for the experienced and they use the money as a jackpot and pay high profits in no time.

Avoid withdrawing practically invested funds and hold for longer periods of time to increase the amount of floating cash fund to keep oneself resilient during market ups and downs. You need to spend enough time waiting for the invested assets to mature for it to be easy to gain market confidence.

A single purchase during volatile price trends which will make the portfolio look healthy and a decision to sell during high price periods which can lead to continued accumulation year after year if alternative income sources are strong.

yet those big firm with extensive experience in trading are still losing big time and getting liquidated whenever there's market shake, trading isn't as easy as just finding strategy so I beg to differ. there's no such thing as one strategy to dominate them all but just trial and error in trading, arguably there's strategy to profit like arbitrage but doesn't mean your arbitrage will always give profit even more so if being overrun by MEV bots.

so positivity can goes a long way to motivate people but too much positivity can give false hope and I don't want to give false hope to people so I just give no commend when it comes to motivating them, let them find the truth about trading by themselves in my opinion.

Yes, I also admit that trading is a very difficult activity to learn, it is a very confusing activity to learn, especially if you do not have a mentor to guide you, but of course it does not mean it is impossible to achieve success, and as an example we can see that there are already quite a lot of people who have succeeded in achieving success in this activity, meaning that trading can indeed be learned to give you success and in my opinion one of the reasons why more people fail than those who succeed is most likely because they come without being serious, usually they are people with fomo who are afraid of missing out and who want everything instantly which in the end ends up losing a lot of money instead of making a profit. So the point is that in my opinion success is not determined by how difficult the activity you are doing is but by how much intention and sincerity you have to achieve success, this applies to all activities.

That's true. I don't know where, but I heard about a term called "a compliment sandwich", which means that when someone asks you about something, and you know that it isn't very good, but you don't want to break their heart, so what you do is that you give them a compliment first, then provide them with some constructive criticism, and then end with another compliment. This way, the person will get what needs to be improved, and it won't hurt as much as it would if it's only the criticism that's given.

A compliment sandwich might not be too relevant to what you are referring to, but it has the same nature, which is to always add something positive, either at the beginning or the end, of what you are saying, so that the person listening doesn't get a completely negative idea of the thing.

Sometimes the truth is unpleasant to hear, but it must be conveyed to increase awareness especially to newbies, if there are newbies who hear it like negative words then that is their problem not the problem of the person who said it. But I agree that warnings must be conveyed with the right words so that they can be understood well even though the best words can still be misinterpreted by the person who hears them.

And trading is always a risky activity without risk you will not make a profit and what is important is understanding the risks so that you can do this activity with full responsibility and caution.

I don't agree with this and I know that anyone who have this opinion is definitely going about trading the wrong way. Trading is only supposed to be hard for a beginner who have not found a trading strategy and who is still jumping from one strategy to the other in search of the "Holy Grail". But an experience trader would have already found the strategy that gives him advantage in the market and be implementing it effortlessly without much psychological burden thereby, making trading easy and sometimes boring. I will simply say, find your trading strategy and stick to it because that is how to win in trading.

Agreed but don't sugarcoat the truth when it can damage the newbie that takes your message with hopes that aren't reliable. Tell the newbies that trading is very risky and many traders don't become victorious. It's then left for the newbie to decide if he wants to continue trading or not, don't be the reason why the newbie make a decision that they're not sure about because if you continue to be positive to them, they'll think that you're not telling the truth about trading when you said it's dangerous.

They see many traders already and see new traders also joining hence they'll be thinking that trading has to be easy for many people to be joining and with your positivity, you're introducing a new users that isn't ready for how volatile the market can be. Since you don't know anything about the newbie, don't give them false hope or you'll be liable for their failure.

Ending a statement on a positive note is a high morale boost. The high morale to going into trading is quality that is needed to have fun trading. Having fun trading and have a positive effect on the mentality of the trader.

Being realistic about trading expectations to yourself and newbies is the crucial thing. A trading mentor with this style of mentoring will have successful students who turn out to become successful traders as well. End a statement on a positive note leads to self-belief and the can do it mindset for the trader who is at the start of their journey.

I fully agree with you, it's always better to encourage new traders so they can continue to learn and there's chance that some of those new traders may be the top or you can say professional traders in future. In life there's positive and negative and similarly there's positivity and negativity in one's speech regarding trading.

When you encourage new traders with words like You can be a good trading after building a good trading plan and strategy then that can create positive feelings in minds of the traders but when you tell those traders that you will end up losing your savings in trading then that creates negative feelings in minds of those traders.

Although, both of those are true and as traders we know that but still it's 10x better to tell the reality and of course in the end they can learn something from your words.

Trading is something that we can't ignore when it comes to profit generation in crypto. But why people don't see it is because not all are willing to take risks and lose their money. That is why it is difficult to expect that all these traders we have now will be able to stay long and survive the difficulties of the market, as I am certain that many of these will quit.
At the moment that uncertainties arise in our minds, it's going to be difficult to gain confidence anymore. I could be wrong, but not all have carried a positive mindset, many of them will lose faith and leave.

I have experienced myself about telling beginners related to trade and I got an answer outside of what I thought. The words may be the same that trading is not 50:50 between loss and profit but 70:30. 70 can be for losses and can also be reversed and in reverse position, even more than 70%.

The answer came out of him, how can I do it well with good knowledge if I haven't done it. The loss that I get you can think about?
After I thought, it would not always be good to say anything about trade to beginners who had never been involved.

Agree with you. Indeed, to motivate beginners, we must provide positive things and it would be good to also provide negative things or the impact of trading if it fails. Because it will make them learn more and not think trading is easy. The point is, trading is easy in theory but when practiced it is very difficult because you have to be able to control everything including emotions and greed.

Because the reality of trading is what they have to know. Many people out there, especially beginners, see trading as an easy way to make money quickly. In fact, if they have traded directly, they will understand that trading is not as sweet as imagined. So it's better to tell him the positive and negative things, it's better to tell him that he also has to focus on the process. Don't be too obsessed with instant results, because if he understands the reality of trading, then his mentality will be more ready to survive in the market for a long time.

There will always be positive and negative things in something, including trading. But this is packaged in the form of risks in trading. If someone is willing to take risks, then there is a chance to succeed, but the chance to fail is also open. But if they don't take risks, then there will be no answers, and maybe they will start to regret why they didn't try it first. However, this all comes back to each of us, because we are the ones who will live and feel everything. This also requires a lot of preparation, not only knowledge but also capital and mentality.

That is why not everyone can succeed in trading because it is a difficult period to fulfill one's aims. You cannot win at trading all at once. you must overcome numerous hurdles before you can achieve anything worthwhile. It is better if you can be patient and learn trading for a year and a half without focusing on anything and find a good mentor to guide you through, I am confident that you will achieve your goals and develop various strategies for profit. But some people are no longer patient, everyone wants quick money, and it is not easy to make a profit from trading. You will be trading for a long time before you progressively learn the market process. Trading is unexpected, but you must learn to predict based on your thinking because luck only comes around once. That is why people compare it to gambling because both are unexpected processes. You can win in gambling even if you are not perfect, but in trading, you must study before you can achieve anything.

what you say is true, basically the first mistake for beginners is to think that trading can make them rich in a relatively short time, this is a fatal mistake. Mindset is the basic thing that must be owned, so that when experiencing losses does not create prolonged stress. Beginners who want to be serious in trading must really understand money management so that they can minimise the risk of large losses. besides that, knowledge or knowledge in trading is no less important, a trading plan must be owned before deciding to buy a coin, especially when looking for profits in the short term, do basic research related to the coin you want to buy, this can increase confidence.

I love to start with the sweet sides of trading to arouse their enthusiasm and then when they get up there held in a haste to start and I now expose the bad side where they get to lose, how they can lose all their money at a go. It's easier to go with the last words in memory than with the first words given. Some persons will only remember the beautiful side you ended the discussion with. So I prefer making it a sweet bitter end.

If telling the truth about the devastating side of trading to an intending newbie trader will scare them away then let it be so they could go save their money into something else less risky. I think revealing those negatives of trading will help the new trader to guide his thoughts well and contribute to his seriousness and determination to learn to avoid reckless trading behaviours and manage his feelings much better to become exempted from the much number of frequently losing traders.

At least you are telling the truth about trading. Whether we like it or not, trading can never be underestimated due to its known high risk. That is why I assume that those who come trading already acknowledge the risk they are going to face.

While accepting the fact that losing is part of trading, we also think that being positive despite undesirable losses is very important to continue our journey. Having such a mindset doesn't just give us courage but also a tool to reach our goals. We need to be mentally okay and proactive in every mistake and loss we make.
 

Not just in trading though, in life I learn to be positive despite what is going around on you. You really need to have as shift on your mindset in order to succeed. Just like in trading, there could be days that you are in a losing skid, but still though, you should still think that you can make a U-turn and one day you will have this big win and makes a lot of profit.

And positive words like I'm whenever you wake up could be a good reinforcement for all of us. And if you can get a mentor, it will really help, but it's not necessary. As you can learn from the scratch and as long as you are willing and not be discourage, sooner or later you will succeed in the end.

Trading is tough can can often be a cause of huge loss if not executed carefully. I know this forum sees a lot of newbies trying their luck at trading and they need to be guided in the proper manner to see the folly in their methods, not just rush into it like a money hungry person.

I have seen that leaving with a positive note has a good mental impact on both the writer and the reader. It makes the writer also appreciate their own work and post more with a positive vibe, can be addicting due to a similar dopamine rush.

But guiding newbies to proper methods in trading is absolutely important.

Indeed, it is a good thing to give positive things to newbies because it can help motivate them to learn good strategies and fundamentals. However, even so, do not always give them positive things, later their thinking tends to assume that trading is something easy and can be mastered by anyone. We need to tell them again and again that trading is not as easy as it looks, it is riskier, and at any time their money can be lost in trading, the point is we need to warn them more than we motivate them, so they can remember that trading is not for playing around.

positivity is great but I think a little peek into reality will do no hurt either, it will function to prevent newbie from trading recklessly and wasting their life saving, I personally would just say that it's dangerous indeed I mean pretty much majority of people are losing with trading which means only very few people can survive and that because they have their own strategy and probably thorough understanding of the market and the fact that the nature of trading is speculative means there will always be losers and winners.

tbh, I'd just say everyone can do trading and profit from it but remember majority of people loses so be sure to do what's required and what it takes to be profitable first before doing anything especially with big capital.

I am not endorsing the fabrication of lies, just saying that you should try to be positive whenever speaking to intending traders. Positivity does not suggest bending the truth about trading; it just means making sure not to leave them discouraged after your speech.

I agree with you, in the sense that every professional trader who has mastered the act of trading was once a newbie. If they were all discouraged at the initial, I am sure we wouldn't have one-quarter of the people who trade in crypto today.

It is because of the positive attributes they heard from others about crypto trading that made them go on with the learning process to master the art of trading even though they experienced loss on trading countless times.

Is because of positive statements being said to them that help in building their mindset and beliefs that they are in for the win someday. They may not know when it will be, but the positive vibes they feel inside will make that come to reality soonest.

Normally it is not a bad idea to be positive in trading but just been positive is not enough to get what you want if you are not with the real knowledge.  The truth is that trading is real and no jokes about it, their is no need to sugar-coat trading to beginners,  it is better to tell them the reality of trading so that they must be prepared and not to think trading is just luck and anyone can just go into it with just little knowledge of it.

I'll always let beginners know that trading is risky but with a good knowledge towards it one can make profits out from it and also let them know too they have to be positive in mind about trading too but positivity without having any knowledge won't  yield any profit in trading.

Positivity creates an edge for a trader that is consistently trying to win his trades over the volatility of the market. Although trading is never easy and we get that, but with constant practice and staying cautious all over the process, trading could positively end up well, and brings significant profits more than what you expected for. After all, discouraging these people from trading is not always good and practical. So let's give them the positivity that each deserves to receive.

Trading is undeniably hard and tough, but on the other hand, we can't underestimate the potentials of a person especially if we are seeing him skillful and passionate about trading. At the same time, we shouldn't be fabricating lies here, so its best to make him aware about the risks involved when trading, but rest assured there will be bigger profits waiting ahead if he knows how to manage the risks and maximize his potentials of being a trader.

Are you a trading mentor? 80 to 90% of traders are losing. But this time as bitcoin is rising, if the trader is trading bitcoin on spot market or going long position, the trader will be making profit by now. But there are some time that the market is not really bullish or bearish. Again most traders will continue to lose. Even what tells us that they can not lose now. I will let the trader understand that and use just low amount of money on trading. That is enough to let him know that it is not only about guidance but just use low amount of money for it. Trading mentors mostly are scam unless you know the person physically and know where he is living and making sure that you have investigated about him and people recommend him.

This is very right, ending our statement on a positive note could help others a lot both the newbie traders and also experienced traders who may be suffering from a loss at that time, our positive statement about trading can go a long way to serve as an encouragement to others so we must learn to filter our statement anytime any day on other not to send to wrong signal.

The change shouldn't be limited to trading discussions alone but also gambling, instead of branding this activity in a bad light with our statements, why not only point out the various dark sides of them and share our guides to avoid such bad experiences in both gambling and trading since this two activities are an important part of our life and discussions.

As someone with an interest in trading, in order to succeed as a trader, you will need to be ready to overcome the mental obstacles that others who have tried trading and failed at it or who have not been as successful as they would have liked will put in front of you. You will hear a lot of statements that, although true and a warning, will be discouraging to you.

I, as an individual, have certainly contributed through my statement to discouraging another aspiring trader because I failed to end my warning with a positive statement that can be reassuring.

So recently, I have made it a habit to end my statement regarding trading always positively so I don't end up being a discouragement to others.

If I say to newbies, for example, that trading is something dangerous to venture into because of the potential to lose all they have invested in it, although very true, I will end the statement on a positive note with something like, "But someone like you can do well in it with proper knowledge and guidance.".

The positivity at the end of the statement goes a long way.
