Everyone knows that trading is a very psychologically difficult process and you need to be able to resist it, because if emotions win, you can lose all your capital in a day due to gambling. This happened to me with my first deposits because I did not know about controlling emotions. I lost only 10 percent of the deposit and it seems like a little, but then I decided that it was necessary to turn over this amount immediately and opened new and new positions, and if you are a trader with experience, you know that in such moments it means a complete loss of the deposit. Are you now able to control your emotions while trading?
Emotions can greatly impact trading performance. Fear and greed can lead to impulsive and irrational decisions, while overconfidence can result in excessive risk-taking. Managing emotions, maintaining discipline, and making objective decisions are crucial for successful trading. I feel proud of myself as I manage it pretty well.

Emotions significantly impact trading decisions, often leading to irrational choices. For instance, fear can cause panic selling during market downturns, resulting in losses. Conversely, greed might drive one to hold onto a rising stock too long, risking a sharp decline. Overconfidence can lead to excessive risk-taking, while anxiety might cause hesitation and missed opportunities. Managing emotions through strategies like setting predefined limits and maintaining a disciplined approach is crucial for successful trading.
I never trade when I'm feeling anxious, depressed, or negative. I never want my emotions to get in the way of my trading decisions, as potentially, this could result in financial loss. I don't want to make irrational choices, so I will always wait until I'm feeling better before trading.
