Managing emotions during 1 minute scalping

Post by PTScalper »

Hi scalpers,

i decided to write short forum post about how i manage my emotions during forex trading/scalping sessions.
First of all forex scalping is not suitable for everybody. Sometimes it is very tough.
I have learned that by hard way. Thanks to big emotions rush i lost several trading accounts.

For me works:

1) Trade forlike 2-3 weeks in one trading series.
2) Risk more on account just from profit, not initial deposit. (in my mind i can risk profit easily, because until i withdraw it, it is not my own money)
3) Sport regular, go out for long walks, go running, go for mountain biking .. simply turn of your charts and relax by physical activity :-)

I hope that i share some usefull information with you,
take a care,
have a nice day,
Bye Bye.
Preserve your own money. Scale with the market's money. Exponential growth is the ultimate key.
