great post, to remind of why we loss, and you have a good reason, but I am regret very much on the first point, on the first point I disagree if low can cause the loss of investment, .. I think it not related with the losses that you get, as long as you use good money management you will survive in this business

[subhadeep41]

The main reason behind loss is the lack of proper strategy.We should have good skills which can be achieved from proper training in demo account,understand the business properly and investing at the right time.Also the capital management plays a huge role in avoiding loss.

[100c�]

But as per my 3 years experience I want say only one thing that the main reason is lack of knowledge of good money management, so this is the main factor and most of the traders wants to get big profit with in a night and they forget money management.

I agree with you almost all the points are valid and I want to add big lot size and over trading in your list. Although both over trading and big lot size are related to greed and poor money management but still if we can avoid both of them we can avoid much loss.

[s19]

But as per my 3 years experience I want say only one thing that the main reason is lack of knowledge of good money management, so this is the main factor and most of the traders wants to get big profit with in a night and they forget money management.
i also agree wtih you..
the main reason is leak knowledge of money management. i also feel its important after loosing one my account.
if we want to success in forex then its must we follow money managements rule in proper way..
there is many factor they effect to our money management first greed....try to make a keep distance with greed.

[yogesh]

I would support your view that we should try keeping distance with greed, and should admit timely that our prediction was not right by triggering stop loss if trade goes reverse to our expectation that will be good risk management.

[dmambi]

But as per my 3 years experience I want say only one thing that the main reason is lack of knowledge of good money management, so this is the main factor and most of the traders wants to get big profit with in a night and they forget money management.

Yes money management is the main point which need to be considered well in trading. If one follows the strict money management coupled with knowledge then the loss can be minimized.

[cumil]

But as per my 3 years experience I want say only one thing that the main reason is lack of knowledge of good money management, so this is the main factor and most of the traders wants to get big profit with in a night and they forget money management.

The bad money management make the trader always fall and lose money, they are trading with high risk, it is because traders have a greedy attitude which always chasing big profits without manage risks properly , maybe thats main reason which causes of loss

[atif58]

mere nazdeek to sab se barri waja greed ha jis ki waja se forex trader apni money khutey hane es k bad jo dosri sab se barri waja ha woh ha low caital k sath bhi woh kafi nuqsan uthatey hane

You are right but agar aap ka analysis acha hai or aap ki money management bhi strong hai to aap ki Greed aap ko koi loss nahi dy skti. Forex mai loss ki sb sy bari vja hi wrong money management hai.

[waqasma]

In my view main reason of loss is emotions. If we do not control our emotions we cannot do successful trades. Fear of loss is also a big factor of losing money. we should put a good stop loss take profit limits and just let it be done with patience, Because patience is money.

[hardworks]

Low capital
Inadequate risk management
Indecisive Trading
Greed
Chasing Trend
Not admiting and realising own mistakes

Yes, I agree with this. And also there is another reason, that is lack in analysis part which makes wrong entry and exit. This is very important in Forex, we want to improve our analysing skills than above.

2:lake of planing
3:lake of knowledge
4:management of lot size
5: capital management and so on there are many reasons are include in forex trading if you have proper knowlege about indicators and signals then you can be successful in forex trading.

[strong]

For me the main reasons for loss are, greed, over trading, trading against the trend and big lot size trading. So far I always tried to make more money in less time and this greed is the main reason for my loss, but now I have learnt from my mistakes and will avoid all of them.

[shinde]

bahut achi post hai bhai ye..me iske har point se agree karta hon
iske alawa ek aur wajah hai jisse naye traders ko loss hota hai..naye tradres kayi bar market me jo afwah hoti hai uske hisab se tarding karne lagte hai..jabk iaisa nahi hona chahaiye..traders ko apni study aur analysis ke hisab se hi trading karni chahaiye na ki market ke rumors se

[niks]

Emotional trading is the main reason behind my loss in forex upto now . I don't know how to overcome it .
Some other reasons can be impatience , risk management ,unconfirmed trends etc.

[aadrika]

Low capital

Indecisive Trading
Greed
Chasing Trend
Not admiting and realising own mistakes

Chasing the trend is not a valid reason for loss. The trend is your friend for most of the time as long as you can identify it. Swing traders all make good and consistent profits from following the trend. I can agree with all your other reasons, but not chasing the trend.

[anubhavsingh]

trend ke opposite trading karne walo ke liye forex me loss hi loss hai
jo bhi trader trend ke hisab se trading karta hai uske liye forex market bahut hi faydemand hota hai..chahae scalping wale ho, ya fir short term trader ho ya fir long term trader ho, sabko trend ke hisab se hi trading karni chahaiye

[maliknas]

I think too much of aggressive and defensive nature can loss the chance of making profit and may turn as the main reason of loss.Traders should know that they should think positive and be patience in the time of investment in the market.so,that they could avoid the chance of loss .Mature trading thinking is needed in the market to make it a profitable place.

If we take care of rules of forex then it is possible for us to avoid any loss in the forex but most of the time traders forget rules when they want to earn a huge amount of profit and this makes them to lose all their capital. Being aggressive or defensive is also not very good, we should be confident while trading.

[cumil]

The main reasons for loss in forex are greed, big lot size, over trading, bad money management and trading against the trend. Everyone in the forex trading knows about all the above reasons for loss but still they are unable to avoid them because making mistakes is human nature.

we are just ordinary people escape from many mistakes, whatever how great our analysis would have the possibility of recession, just that with experience we have get then these risks can manage

we must learn from our loss, everything can be learned little by little, ranging create a forex trading policies including discipline and others. and never was satisfied with learning that we get in forex, because actually not be finished, what we learn in forex in forex as long we still want to study towards a better

[anubhavsingh]

That's right. We shouldn't chase the trend if the momentum is over because it could cause us experience losses.
Following trend is not always good decision, sometimes we must wait for other condition to maximize profits or to prevent
losses.

mere khaya lse hamesha trend ki direction me hi paise lagane chahaiye..trend ke opposite trade karne se trader ke nuksan ke chances zada ho jate hai..is wajah se har trader ko sirf trend ki direction me hi paise lagaen chahaiye..ye sabse safe tarika hai forex me trading karne ka aur me is tarike ko last 3 saal se follow karta aa raha hon aur mujeh isse kafi fayda bhi hua hai

[anubhavsingh]

aap ki baat sey agree bhi hun or disagree bhi. agree is baat sey hun k trend is your friend always, trend per pesay legaaney sey faida hi hota hey. Disagree is baat se hun k aaj kal reversal trade bhi achi jaty hein. opposite trend mein bhi achi trade ki jaty hien.

opposite trend me paisa lagane ke liye apko kafi experience ki zarurat padegi kyunki naye tardres isko nahi samjh payenge..unke liye to trend ki direction me paisa lagana hi safe rehta hai..trend ke against paisa lagane ke liye apko bahut experience aur study ki zarurat padegi jo ki naye tradres nahi kar oayenge

[metroearn]

its right but one question is that how to see that this is the true trend and it will not correct the market? and also how to know that where will be the end of this trend?

i have a very good solution for you. If you want i can give you a indicator GMACD2.
this indicator will show you true trend instantly. if you want you can pm me.

[siberian]

i have a very good solution for you. If you want i can give you a indicator GMACD2.
this indicator will show you true trend instantly. if you want you can pm me.

As I know, there is no indicator which could give 100% true movement of price although there are many people who told that
there is indicator which could give 100% true movement. I think it's better to give some explanations about the indicator to
make sure that indicator is good to show movement of price.

[abcforex]

Yes, I agree with you, If any one which is made him self over night rich then greed will be generated in his mind and going toward the loss in his account. So, this is reason similarly, if their prediction is not good then again he will be loss, also view a market trend upcoming or down. These are the basic reasons of loss.

[dmambi]

Sometimes it is hard to find any reason for the loss, often we enter with good analysis and find out the right entry point even then we loose our money to the stop loss set, and soon after touching to stop loss the price starts climbing up making us to feel red.

mere khayal se loss ka sabse bada reason hota hai ki trader ka money management thik nahi hota jis wajah se wo stop loss aur take profit ka bhi thik se use nahi kar pata..
money management forex ka bahut zaruri hissa hai..har trader ko iska hamesha dyan rakhan chahaiye aur aisa karne se uske loss kafi kam ho jayeneg aur profit ka margin bhi bad jayega

[andry777]

Oftenly the reason of our losses are because lack of knowledges and lack of experiences so it made you trade without any good money
management then it caused you suffer Margin Call in short time. That's the main reason of losses which I oftently knew in forex market.

knowledge kam hona forex me loss ka sabse bada reason hai..isi jwajah se naye tarders ko sabse zada lsos hota hai kyunki unke pas itni knowledge nahi hoti aur na hi wo situations ko thik se handle kar pate hai..lekin ajsie jaise forex me knowledge badti jati hai tarders pane lsoses recover kar lete hai..isliye forex me kabhi bhi losses se dukhi nahi hona chahaiye balki unhe thik se analyse karke aage tarding karni chahiye

[cumil]

Sometimes it is hard to find any reason for the loss, often we enter with good analysis and find out the right entry point even then we loose our money to the stop loss set, and soon after touching to stop loss the price starts climbing up making us to feel red.

I've read the book "The Winning Investment Habits of Warren Buffett & George Soros", the essence about big mistakes that lead to loss:

1. Too Believe that you have to predict future market movements to gain big rewards results.

2. Confidence "Teacher". teachers in the sense here is "if I can not predict the market, then other people can do it. that I do is find that person.

3. diversifying

4. Believe that you must take big risks for big gains.

5. Believing that you know what the future will be taken, and felt sure that finally the market will have to prove you right.

Myry nazdeem losses ki sab sy bari or main waja forex trading ky bary main knowledge ki kami hai or is ky bad greed or baqi sub ati hain ager aap ko proper knowledge ho gi to aap baqi sub reasons per asani ky sath qabo pa sakty ho.

[libya]

Low capital
Inadequate risk management
Indecisive Trading
Greed
Chasing Trend
Not admiting and realising own mistakes

many factors that can make us experience in trading losses, including many for the above.
yes, I often do a lot of mistakes that make my statement and experience in trading margin call.
as well as being greedy to get a lot of profit in a short time.

[dragon]

Lack of money management and aiming to gain more in less time is only due to an urge to become rich in short time. The greed is the main factor behind all this situation and one must overcome this greed factor to stop loosing his trades.

I think it's not lack of money managemet but it was lack of knowledges how to trade well in certain condition of market.
Many traders who didn't make good analysis first before they entered to forex market so they made many mistakes which
they won't do if they have made analysis first.

[newentry]

i do not agree with low capital, it is not the obstacle to get success in this business and also it is not caused of loses
you have to find some information that there are many trader get success with their low capital in the beginning and also i do not understand, where is the limit of low capital.? $ 50, $ 100 or just $ 10?

[nona]

I have outlined in this meaning of short sentences long have explained the reasons summarized in the forex loss in all the many phrases, but I have not added expertise and lack of readiness and preparedness, and knowledge of the market and this move is sufficient

[drdeepakji]

There are many reasons of loss in these markets and the reasons can be lack of proper trading strategy , lack of patience and discipline and lack of basic knowledge.

never get scared of looses..they are good teachers..more u lose more u learn and in long term more chances of u to get successful trader...be target oriented and u will see with practise ur targets are grwing gradually

[zoomfire]

for me the very main reason of loss is greed.
due to greed i will cross MM rule and because of this i land into MC :(

[lax]

poor money management. Sure,everyone can trade. But who is good enough to know how to balance what you have in your account and what goes to the market. Poor money management is everything. You make a mistake and you are gone. Let your trades be clear,dont risk too much. Its also how people work with a good clearg concience. Fear and greed is another key factor.

[indianforex]

the main reason for loss are:lack of experience
lack of technical and fundamental knowledge about forex
over confident
low investment
greed
opposite going of market
poor money management

[mohit]

the main reason for the loss is the lack of money management and lack of risk management done by many of the traders due to which they failed to get the success

[naik]

The reason that many forex traders have losses in most of their trades is as a result of greed. It is greed that makes them to take very high risks and then make too much mistakes and big losses.

[swadesh287]

I think lack of knowledge and decision under pressure or in fast are the main resons for loss.but there are also other thing which causes loss that are certainly down market etc.

[fxquest]

mere khaya lse hamesha trend ki direction me hi paise lagane chahaiye..trend ke opposite trade karne se trader ke nuksan ke chances zada ho jate hai..is wajah se har trader ko sirf trend ki direction me hi paise lagaen chahaiye..ye sabse safe tarika hai forex me trading karne ka aur me is tarike ko last 3 saal se follow karta aa raha hon aur mujeh isse kafi fayda bhi hua hai

Sahi kaha aapne, trend ke rukh ki taraf trade karna utna hi asan hai jitna nadi me bahav ki taraf tairaki karna, agar ham trend ko samajhte hai aur ternd ka fayda uthana jan gaye hai to bahut jyada technical knowledge ke bina bhi susccessful trader ban sakte hai.

[Morshedul]

I think low capital is not the reason for losing money in forex. It is actually mainly happened because of the unplanned management of risk and capital and greed also. People always want to get a decent profit. And that is the problem. You have to take patience in forex market because you have invested your own money here. You can also use target profit system if you want to reduce your loss. Because sometimes it seems that investors wont look all the time in forex market. Suppose price once goes up and you are not in the market. At that moment if you set target profit and if the price reaches that profit, then your transaction will automatically be closed. So be careful before trading in forex.

[afzal852]

In my view,there are three reasons of loss in the markets,first is inexperience, 2nd is less knowledge of forex and 3rd is greediness which is most harmful in trading, If we get good knowledge of forex and get experience through demo account and get control on our greed which automatically produced during trading then we can go towards success

[dog]

according to me the main reason for the loss of the traders are due to lack of basic knowledge about forex trading.the traders should try to concentrate on this.it is the basic reason why the traders get fail in their trading.the only solution for getting basic knowledge is by utilizing the demo account in proper way

[afzal852]

I agree with this that main reason for loss is lack of knowledge of good money management but how can we overcome on this problem? Only through getting good of knowledge of forex,and through good experience, we can overcome this problem

[adahidayat]

i think that main mistake and reason that oa newbie and some traders suffer losses is that they do not have enough knowledge about forex and they do not follow forex rules...so they will always over trade and get greedy easily....and they cannot handle pressure and always make wrong decisions and always keep doing same mistakes again and again...

[sangam]

I agree with this that main reason for loss is lack of knowledge of good money management but how can we overcome on this problem? Only through getting good of knowledge of forex,and through good experience, we can overcome this problem

Their are many reasons for the loss and it gets more difficult to be able to exactly identify where and how we have went wrong. Only after we do a full analysis we are going to know about it and then take some of the corrective actions with same regards.

[metroearn]

yesterday i took very high risk with very low volume. losing contol my mind and was crazy. market closed and still i am in alive my trades alive. so lets see what happen on next trading day. emotion is the main reason for losses.

[sangam]

i also agree wtih you..
the main reason is leak knowledge of money management. i also feel its important after loosing one my account.
if we want to success in forex then its must we follow money managements rule in proper way..
there is many factor they effect to our money management first greed....try to make a keep distance with greed.

The most important aspect for any trader whether he is new to the markets or already an experienced trader is the fact that he needs to learn the effective use of the money management. And by this he must learn on how much deals he should open in the markets and how much floating margins to keep.

[dragon]

There are many reasons which caused traders experienced losses but mostly traders are lossing because they didn't have
good knowledges in forex. Losses is always happening as long as we trade in forex but we should recover our losses from
our profits. In short word, our chance of profits should be more than chance of losses.

[kampung]

I think too much of aggressive and defensive nature can loss the chance of making profit and may turn as the main reason of loss.Traders should know that they should think positive and be patience in the time of investment in the market.so,that they could avoid the chance of loss .Mature trading thinking is needed in the market to make it a profitable place.

I think we should not be too quick to blame the way trade is also aggressive and depensif because sometimes in certain conditions we can maximize the trade ways to earn good profits in our trade

[alam]

I think a lot of factors to make trader ang loss, but I think the trader may want to get rich quick in trading, it can not konrol emotion, no discipline, does not have a good trading plan, so the trader is often loss.

[arihant]

the main reason for the loss is the lack of money management and lack of risk management done by many of the traders due to which they failed to get the success

[shinde]

In my view main reason of loss is emotions. If we do not control our emotions we cannot do successful trades. Fear of loss is also a big factor of losing money. we should put a good stop loss take profit limits and just let it be done with patience, Because patience is money.

[alam]

[shinde]

here are many reasons for loss , the loss may due to wrong decision , so its necesaary to take each and every decision very carefully , don't be greedy while doing trading , the greediness may result to loss and the main thing is don't re-invest again and again you will not gonna make a profit if you re-invest you may also suffer a loss.

[shinde]

There may be many reasons for losses. The main thing is greediness , if we become greedy while doing trading then we can suffer a loss , so its better to keep some patients while doing trading . And don't re-invest your profit by thinking that you will make this 10$ into 1000$ , just be happy with your profit which you have earned while doing trading . Just increase your investment little by little slowly. So that you may not suffer a loss.

[arihant]

In forex trading if we can earn a good amount of profit then we can also suffer a loss , there is chances of both . The profit is just depend upon how we trade . If we take right decision then we can earn a good profit , if we take wrong decision then we can suffer a loss . So if you want to safeguard yourself from loss then take every decision very carefully , don't be greedy while doing trading , and yeah be happy with your profit which you have earned , don't re-invest , there is chances of loss in re-investment.

meray kehayal sy main reason of loss apka dehaan ka baat jana hota hy ku k jab ap ka deyhan nhi hota to ap sahi trading nhi kr rahy hotay or glat positon open kr deytay hn jis k nuqsaan apko bughatna parta hu loss ke soort me.

[rajabd]

Yes all things are correct for loss. Money management is also reason for loss in forex trade. If you can�t adjust sentiment with market movement so you may loss.

[happiness]

First we must know and calculate MM and risk per trade are suitable for us.
keep it in sizing same risk per trade,it will makes you more chance,if you loss you still can fight and survive.
dont think about one trade for all

[newentry]

reason for losing is
they trade without good discipline and less knowledge...just it...
low capital is not the obstacle to build the career but if they have no discipline, they will never make it

[panicky]

You are absolutely right. Many people lost their money when trading due to lack or do not make risk management. In addition, impatient or too fast a transaction.
So what to do is learn from the pro traders. :)

[sohelforex]

Nice post. I agree with all points except the first. I started with only 1 dollar of capital and now its thousands times bigger. Legend world traders didn't have adequate capital before they came into this business.
Thanks

[panicky]

Your right, less consistent and less patient also resulted in loss of money in trading.
So, many are learning and looking for proven strategies in order not to lose a lot of money.

[Current]

reason for losing is
they trade without good discipline and less knowledge...just it...
low capital is not the obstacle to build the career but if they have no discipline, they will never make it

in my opinion, was also influential in the loss of capital. because if we have sufficient capital, we can be more comfortable in doing the trade. small capital will only make us tense if the time we have floating minus trading

[clickme]

In a specific context, main reason for loss:
Emotional trading,
Open many trades at a time
Getting greedy
Not follow the money management
Not use stop loss

[sangam]

Lack of money management and aiming to gain more in less time is only due to an urge to become rich in short time. The greed is the main factor behind all this situation and one must overcome this greed factor to stop loosing his trades.

Jab ham trading mein yeh baat jante hain ki agar hamare paas mein accha account balance hoga to hamko galat trade se bhi koi problem nahi hogi, kyuki margin me utna funds hai. lekin agar ham koi bhi aisi tarde karte hain ki jyada margins nahi hota hai, tabhi hamari trades khatre mein a jati hain aur fir tabhi hamko margin call bhi aata hain.

Sabse acchi baat yehi hain ki hamare paas mein har samay yeh mauka rehta hai ki ham apni galat trades ko band kar dein jis se loss kam ho aur ham aage bhi trading kar sakte hain.

[raja413]

always go with market trend. Otherwise you can�t make money. trade with emotion is a major mistake which often most of the trader do. The first thing is demo account is very effective is that there is huge equity so an trade can be long in trader until in turn into the profit.

[malik83]

I think the main reason for loss in forex trading is no trade is in time and every trade play with emotional which result you a big loss and you suffer with tension and not play trading at right time.

[TrojanFX]

The first reason is the loss of successive rolling himself because he does not try to change his style of trading and that every trader should look at the reasons which led to the loss of which is to find a solution to this problem and out of them

[GaruL]

In a specific context, main reason for loss:
Emotional trading,
Open many trades at a time
Getting greedy
Not follow the money management
Not use stop loss

cause we have a lot of trading loss, which is our emotional trading, it is not in our emotional urge, because the emosionl we will make mistakes in the analysis. and other causes are greedy, if we are greedy traders most definitely use a large lot in order to get profit quickly, the real action is wrong because then we can also get loss quickly too.

[papazakiyya]

some a reasons for loss :
1. There is no trading system for trading
2. There is no money magement
3. There is no technical and fundamental analisys when open position
4. Can not understand pair characteristic and market situation
5. Fear and greedy when open position

[GaruL]

Poor money management have truely become one of the major factors that can land traders to failure and must be applied by every forex trader.

i agree, we should have good money management to be successful in forex trading business, if we do not have good money management will lead us to experience great loss, even in trading accounts within days we may get a margin call, and therefore we should always use a money management as well as possible.

[m3x_19]

In a specific context, main reason for loss:
Emotional trading,
Open many trades at a time
Getting greedy
Not follow the money management
Not use stop loss
The most causes the traders to experience loss is not following their own system, usually this is because the emotional feeling, that emotional feeling is greed. The other points like open many trades at a time is not usually make the traders loss, because there are traders who open many position according to their strategy.

[TrojanFX]

These are our enemy in our forex trading. we should always aware of our trading.I think that greed and over trading are the most causes that make traders fail because when the trades is greedy.I do not know how to program so that I can put AI in my forex trading.

[TrojanFX]

I agree with you and for me GREED is the hardest problem we're facing .

There is not a trader in the world that can perfect forex trading with out losing a trade from time to time. You must remember well that losing is part of a traders life. Just minimize your loses and double your profits. Trade at your own risk.

[raka999]

causes a loss in trade, due to a lack of discipline. although the strategy has been good, but if we do not discipline the losses must be obtained.

[JogjaCantik]

The most causes the traders to experience loss is not following their own system, usually this is because the emotional feeling, that emotional feeling is greed. The other points like open many trades at a time is not usually make the traders loss, because there are traders who open many position according to their strategy.
beside that trader will be loss is they just follow strategies from the other person. so they not understand about risk with that strategies.

[newentry]

my main resson for losing are i traded without discipline and think to get the profit with fast then i just broke the rules..
but it was become my experiences then i have to trade with mature and see this business as a great business and need high discipline for to do

[niteshforex]

I do not agree that chasing the trend is a cause for loss. If you chase the trend, you should be able to make good profits from the trend. The other reasons for making a loss are valid reasons but not chasing the trend.

[TrojanFX]

trading without discipline is more biggest reason for loss but matter is that what discipline is must to use....?
in my view the most important discipline is following money management and trading without emotions and greed.

I agree with you. Discipline is a very very important factor in your trading strategy.In the ever changing world of Forex trading if you don't have discipline then you are going to be looser.because when you are in the market taking your trading decisions you have to control your emotion and discipline is the only way that can control your emotion.

[amitnihalani]

hi i m new beginner in forex........ can u tell me about ...... Main reasons for loss:

Ever newbies want to make big profit on short time. I think they thought forex like a money making machine. So they want more money from this machine on short time. After losing all amount they realized that they are on wrong way. I think this is one of the big mistake for every newbies.

[malik83]

forex is very best forum for earning and you got more profit then other business but if you are doing emotional trading and don,t managed your money then you will be in loss.

[Thakur]

Ever newbies want to make big profit on short time. I think they thought forex like a money making machine. So they want more money from this machine on short time. After losing all amount they realized that they are on wrong way. I think this is one of the big mistake for every newbies.

Everybody is interested in making big profit on short time in forex. Experience is the only difference that separate newbie from professional trader. If professional trader discover new way to make big profit in short time, he will leave his old strategy and begin with new strategy.

[rahibul]

If you are at forex trading and the elite of 5%, the big gains are to enter to win you need to understand and prevent the causes of losing 95% of the dealers. Every forex traders should to avoid the following reasons; Following Experts, Bad Methodology, Lack Of Confidence, Lack of Discipline, Over Leverage and Poor Money Management. Thanks.

[Abdomhadi]

yes I share the same causes
a small capital: it is always important to have a large capital to make the purchase in Forex to recover our losses
bad strategy: the strategy plays a very important role in the forex but just the right strategy can win but not the other.
the error after the error: always do not get to do the same mistakes and expect one can read or even know of a way that causes our e errors.

[TrojanFX]

Most of the treader loss their investment because of following reason. Treading without plan, Not setting a stop plan, emotional treading after loss, unrealistic goal. Newbie must be patient,confident in his treading.

[chetan]

Lack of money management and aiming to gain more in less time is only due to an urge to become rich in short time. The greed is the main factor behind all this situation and one must overcome this greed factor to stop loosing his trades.

[ali1011]

I think so that the main reason of loss is that greed when you can control your greed ,you can make a professional trader in your professional life .Greed is not fear for trade we should use always stoop loss in your trade .

[ken arok]

To avoid high risk and loss in Forex trading first work on demo account and get knowledge about trading in market. Use the 10% of you amount because it will save you from high loss.

[joget]

The main reason for losing in forex trading is due to incorrect entry and continue to let it become increasingly negative and hope that prices will soon return again despite knowing that such expectations not be realized immediately. This means that he could not accept his mistake and can not afford to risk losing in forex trading. # If you are mentally not ready to lose then do not trade forex.

[chetan]

I think the main reason for the loss is the revenge from the market and also greed which make you misery becasuse if you will take the revenge from the market then you will lose and if you will be greedy then you will again lose the money.

[chetan]

That is right my friend and i think we should take good decisions base on the capital other wise we should do the tradings in between the range of the money management and i think we should close our position if it floats too much in loss.

[rajesh]

It is well said that if you do the good analysis of the market before opening of any trade then only one single trade can give you lot of money and if you do not know how to trade well then many trades can never escape you from losings.

[rajesh]

yea right. money is excellent way to do the trades at the right way because you have the money and if you will not try to safe this money then you will not get some good profit from the forex.

[MTEBESSI]

I think the main causes of losses would be :
Improper money management with low capital, lack of proper emotion control, unreasonable analysis, the time of trading, news event etc.
these are all basics as basics are the most important. They can be avoided simply with experience which comes along with time and knowledge.

[dmambi]

Lack of knowledge is the main reason for loss, knowledge is a great tool with which we can make money in this business. So we need to learn the working model of the Forex market and improve our trading skills by participating in Demo account or cents trading account before going big way with real standard account.

[jahir]

I agree with your opinion and generally people should learn to control their impulse rather being greedy which in many cases makes a person a loser.

[ken arok]

Lack of knowledge is the main reason for loss, knowledge is a great tool with which we can make money in this business. So we need to learn the working model of the Forex market and improve our trading skills by participating in Demo account or cents trading account before going big way with real standard account.

Forex trading is a pure business and everyone can earn who have a ability to trade. The mostly traders earn reasonable money on daily basis from Forex trading due to skills. For the success of Forex trading we must be gave fully involvement to the trade.

[raka999]

Sometimes it is hard to find any reason for the loss, often we enter with good analysis and find out the right entry point even then we loose our money to the stop loss set, and soon after touching to stop loss the price starts climbing up making us to feel red.
indeed true, it is often the price touched a new stop loss then moves in accordance with our op. can be avoided with the installation of stop loss is not too near. also, the installation of stop loss should pay attention to the point of support and resistance.

[ali1011]

Lake of knowledge is also best reason of loss but i think so is best greed because mostly knowledgeable persons/traders from the reason of greed do your forex trading position loss but greed is also bad thing for trade.

[seri]

Lake of knowledge is also best reason of loss but i think so is best greed because mostly knowledgeable persons/traders from the reason of greed do your forex trading position loss but greed is also bad thing for trade.

I prefer to say the most reason/main reason not the best reason. Mostly traders who lost in forex, they didn't have enough knowledges
about how to trade well and they didn't have good experiences in forex market. And about greed, I think it's not only greedy but it's
about psychology control. It is possible because another psychology like fear, overconfident, overtrading, overlot, etc.

[ratnakr]

Lake of knowledge is also best reason of loss but i think so is best greed because mostly knowledgeable persons/traders from the reason of greed do your forex trading position loss but greed is also bad thing for trade.

in addition to knowledge, I think mentally weak, also affected. For example: We know the OP signal has appeared. But we do not dare to OP for fear of loss. Conversely, mental greed will also kill you in this business. We will do Overtrading, because these greedy mental. So the key to success is discipline in all things.

[sayem]

Mere kheyal se loss ki main reason hay high volume se trade or bid dena. kaye bar hum jaldime galtia kar bethte hay or ohe loss ki karan hota hay. kuch loog dar ki wajayse loss karte hay, kuch log knowledge ki kami ki wajayse. bina demo kare real me trade karte hay ye sabhe loss ki main reason hay.

[patil]

I do not agree that chasing the trend is a cause for loss. If you chase the trend, you should be able to make good profits from the trend. The other reasons for making a loss are valid reasons but not chasing the trend.

[anubhavsingh]

for me the very main reason of loss is greed.
due to greed i will cross MM rule and because of this i land into MC

greed sabse bada reason hota hai forex me loss ka kyunki greed ki wajah se tarders thik se money manage nahi akrte aur zada se zada paisa kamane ke chakkar me zada se zada loss kar jate hai
isliye har trader ko apni greed aur emotions pe kabu rakhte hue trading karni chahiye jise ki zada se zada profit kama sake

[s.akhtar]

i think emotion and greed twice main reason for lose in forex trading business, if you we can control it we can become good trader one day. but while we want to open a trade maximum time we forget this rule thats why 90% losers in forex market. so we should need to improve our this two bad habits and recover our loss .

[ermaniso2011]

l think we have to add also not using money management rules and also not using stoploos.these two are very important.l think if a trader just risk 5% of his capital per trade even he make some mistakes with his decisions still he can recover.but the main reason is most of the newbies will just open a trade and never want to close it until it will not make profit.and they will also not use stoploose.

[kaji]

I agree that what is mentioned above are a few things that cause a loss in forex trading except low capital, because trade is a major factor in the ability of the strategy, management and control of emotions. although we only have a little capital, but if we can do three things before, then we will become a successful trader....

[aryan]

wrong analysis is common thing happened in forex trading cause the market it self is something that unpredictable. so we should have emergency exit plan to recover from our own mistakes. using martingale or hedging can be the options.

[TrojanFX]

all of the mistake is our mistake when we ar got the mistake and got the loss on the forex, because we are making our own analysis not the broker trade for us ,and we control our money there not the broker and not the forex

[ezincenter]

Low capital
Inadequate risk management
Indecisive Trading
Greed
Chasing Trend
Not admiting and realising own mistakes

Excuse me to tell you that I am not with you at all in some cases, like the "chasing trend", in forex market chasing trend is perfectly rational, there are many profitable strategies out there its success held only on chasing the trend.

[Abdo22]

I think that this bad quality is the main reason behind my loss on forex date. I do not know how to overcome it. Other reasons may be impatience, poor risk management, trends and also other unconfirmed things

[narendra]

Yes in forex market i think every trader face lose. Some time you need to prepare you self to take some lose i think it is good for you account. Many new trader dont want to take lose thats why there account is come under presser for margin call.

[aryan]

we are just ordinary people escape from many mistakes, whatever how great our analysis would have the possibility of recession, just that with experience we have get then these risks can manage

[aryan]

I've read the book "The Winning Investment Habits of Warren Buffett & George Soros", the essence about big mistakes that lead to loss:

1. Too Believe that you have to predict future market movements to gain big rewards results.

2. Confidence "Teacher". teachers in the sense here is "if I can not predict the market, then other people can do it. that I do is find that person.

3. diversifying

[Laknath]

I think main reasons for lose are inadequate funds invested,not have enough experience and wrong analysis.Also some traders open several trades at same time to gain a big profit.It's also lead a loses.

[sangam]

bhai hume apni real trade mein ek dum shanti aur savar karna chahiye aur ek dum fresh mind trade karni chahiye koi jaldi bazi na kare to ye behtar hai mere khayal se agar aap in sab ko achchi lar lete hai to hume 70% trade ek dum sahi hoti hai.

When we have the patience and the better control in our real trades then we will not make the decisions in haste and thus remain protected with the account funds as well as make some profits on a regular basis which will give them better control over their trading.

[vineet]

bhai aapne sahi kaha hai par kuch galat trades ke bare mein kuch trader ko pata hi nahi chalta hai kyun ki usko abhi ye hi nahi pata hota hai ki wo galti kya kar raha hai to wo apni galti kaise sudharega aisa nahi hona chahyie har trader ko apni galti par pura deyaan dena chahiye.

[TrojanFX]

When we have the patience and the better control in our real trades then we will not make the decisions in haste and thus remain protected with the account funds as well as make some profits on a regular basis which will give them better control over their trading.

yes what you say is true, what matters is we as traders impatient to do the op position, but patience is required, should we as traders must be able to do the op at the right time, so we do not have losses so large,

[raka999]

great post, to remind of why we loss, and you have a good reason, but I am regret very much on the first point, on the first point I disagree if low can cause the loss of investment, .. I think it not related with the losses that you get, as long as you use good money management you will survive in this business
small capital can not cause the loss. all depends on how we manage it. but, we must realize, that with a small capital, do not expect big profits. The main error is the cause of loss due to lack of discipline. that's it.

[TrojanFX]

small capital can not cause the loss. all depends on how we manage it. but, we must realize, that with a small capital, do not expect big profits. The main error is the cause of loss due to lack of discipline. that's it.

with the loss on our account it means that there exist, an error on our strategy, the evaluation means that we are trying to find mistakes and learn to fix them, better yet, the evaluation of trading results, nor should we routinely do, in order to improve the quality of our trading and also to further expand our trading ..

[jai]

1:greed
2:lake of planing
3:lake of knowledge
4:management of lot size
5: capital management and so on there are many reasons are include in forex trading if you have proper knowlege about indicators and signals then you can be successful in forex trading.

[sagar]

reason for losing is
they trade without good discipline and less knowledge...just it...
low capital is not the obstacle to build the career but if they have no discipline, they will never make it

[rakesh]

my main resson for losing are i traded without discipline and think to get the profit with fast then i just broke the rules..
but it was become my experiences then i have to trade with mature and see this business as a great business and need high discipline for to do

[anchitkole]

I agree with you. Discipline is a very very important factor in your trading strategy.In the ever changing world of Forex trading if you don't have discipline then you are going to be looser.because when you are in the market taking your trading decisions you have to control your emotion and discipline is the only way that can control your emotion.

[anchitkole]

Ever newbies want to make big profit on short time. I think they thought forex like a money making machine. So they want more money from this machine on short time. After losing all amount they realized that they are on wrong way. I think this is one of the big mistake for every newbies.

[will]

I agree with you. Discipline is a very very important factor in your trading strategy.In the ever changing world of Forex trading if you don't have discipline then you are going to be looser.because when you are in the market taking your trading decisions you have to control your emotion and discipline is the only way that can control your emotion.

Yes, discipline is very important but it will affect your trading if there is good analysis and good money management.
It's useless to be discipline if there is not good analysis. You still got losses from trading and your discipline will only limit
your losses.

[anchitkole]

There is not a trader in the world that can perfect forex trading with out losing a trade from time to time. You must remember well that losing is part of a traders life. Just minimize your loses and double your profits. Trade at your own risk.

[jiching]

in my opinion, the main reason for loss is our dissatisfication. What profit we get don't make us statisfied. We want more and more. We should realize we cannot trade like that. But frequently we against our rule, we trade and trade again... and finally we lost and go to margin call.
I think we must have trade plan, how many pips we want to get everyday. if the target is reached, we must close the computer and enjoy our day. Don't trade again after we get profit. if we want to order again, use the demo account...

[anchitkole]

Most of the treader loss their investment because of following reason. Treading without plan, Not setting a stop plan, emotional treading after loss, unrealistic goal. Newbie must be patient,confident in his treading.

[maryosa]

anchitkole, you are correct in your talk. I also think that if trader can have a plan to stop bad trade before loss of up to 10% of capital, then trader will always be able to have good capital to trade with if have good signal. and will have more win trade than loss trades.

[amit]

indeed true, it is often the price touched a new stop loss then moves in accordance with our op. can be avoided with the installation of stop loss is not too near. also, the installation of stop loss should pay attention to the point of support and resistance.

[iwan]

it all is the theory that much talked about, but if we can do it ..? I think it can all be done by a process, our learning process, not necessarily a long time, but more on how quickly we can master and control it.

[ashvin]

in my opinion the loss caused by system or strategy that is not good. If it's coupled with a greedy nature and emotions, then it will make our account was destroyed. I've never experienced it. because of the things you have to do is to fix the system that you are using, and train your psychology, and be sure to always use the sl.

[kuldip kale]

as my opinion the main reason of loss is the low confidence about our trade also there is one more reason for loss is that the wrong position of trade and wrong time trade in forex
it may cause your acount there is many factor they effect to our money management first greed....try to make a keep distance with greed.

[manibhai2012]

Main reasons for loss:
According to my point of view you are 110% right sir but there is also one more thing which is one the biggest reason of loss in the Forex market is no knowledge about the risk and the money management, Trade smart and happy trading to all.

[Techno]

it all is the theory that much talked about, but if we can do it ..? I think it can all be done by a process, our learning process, not necessarily a long time, but more on how quickly we can master and control it.

loss is a thing that can happen to all traders.
we do not need to look for trading systems that have never experienced loss, because it will not be found.
The important thing is we can utilize the right strategy to get a better trade and can get a consistent profit.

[sayem]

Loss is also part of business. specially in forex any one can loss any time. the reason of losses is maybe high leverage and high volume trades. high risk in short capital also. always trade minimum or low risk.

[naziafarhan]

I dont think that low capital is the main reson for loss. But it may be responsible for low profit. BUt if some one does forex business maintaining his MM strictly then I dont htink it will be very easy to lose. Cause wining or losing anything can not happen easily in forex.

[taqiniazi]

Low capital
Inadequate risk management
Indecisive Trading
Greed
Chasing Trend
Not admiting and realising own mistakes

The main reason for loss in Forex is the Over trading , Wrong decision making , and very important is that the less knowledge of Forex trading and technical skills

[ishvara]

Low capital
Inadequate risk management
Indecisive Trading
Greed
Chasing Trend
Not admiting and realising own mistakes

Low capital is the first problem that you sighted in forex trading business. It is the main problem that many newbies are suffering in their trades so we must control it at all times and have a big trading capital.

[Techno]

The main reason for loss in Forex is the Over trading , Wrong decision making , and very important is that the less knowledge of Forex trading and technical skills

Overtrading conducted trader trader can make it difficult to analyze the market carefully. because they are in a hurry to get profit in large numbers quickly. so it makes them a frequent defeats, as yet can handle the position, which is too much.

[venus]

Low capital is the first problem that you sighted in forex trading business. It is the main problem that many newbies are suffering in their trades so we must control it at all times and have a big trading capital.

I am disagree with your opinion. Low capital is not problem in forex business because you could gain capitals from bonus posting and
it is possible to gain $50 in a month from bonus posting. It's enough for trading in starting point so the problem is not from capital.
Loss is happening because you're not quite good in analysis and making prediction.

[sayem]

I think the reasons of loss is high leverage and high volume. some time traders trade high volume trade against his capital because of greed and also loss patience. but this is forex anytime you can be loss if you are not aware. so all time trade maximum 5% risk on his capital.

[mita]

I agree with you almost all the points are valid and I want to add big lot size and over trading in your list. Although both over trading and big lot size are related to greed and poor money management but still if we can avoid both of them we can avoid much loss.

[rahul]

for me the very main reason of loss is greed.
due to greed i will cross MM rule and because of this i land into MC

[atif58]

for me the very main reason of loss is greed.
due to greed i will cross MM rule and because of this i land into MC
Having no money management and Trading plan is more dangerous then Greed. Sometimes we can be succeeded being greedy but absence of money management and trading plan is unforgivable. So always first make your money management and trading plan then start trade.

[ali1011]

I think so that my main reason of loss is that greed is the main reason of my trading loss if you can control this during your trade then you can get easy many pips for your pocket .

[fxquest]

Indecisive trading, trying chasing the trend, letting emotions affect the trades are the main reasons in my opinion that causes us to lose big, if we do enough analysiss beore opening a trade and stick to the plan without letting emotions affect our decisions, and try to follow the trend there is no reason to get repeated losses then.

[barkiman]

Indecisive trading, trying chasing the trend, letting emotions affect the trades are the main reasons in my opinion that causes us to lose big, if we do enough analysiss beore opening a trade and stick to the plan without letting emotions affect our decisions, and try to follow the trend there is no reason to get repeated losses then.
yes, the core of all the losses I have experienced is the lack of discipline. lack of anticipation could backfire for us. I often enter the market without thorough consideration. you need to remember, that we can not control the market, but you must follow it.

[sayem]

Ya greed is a good reason but also can be if any one have trade without experiences and high volume trade. patience is also a big reason in Forex. trader must be practice before trade.

[zahidrock]

I think there are lot of reason for losses in this market. Most of the trader start trading without knowledge and they do not use any good strategy and did not have any good plan for trading. And they don't like to use trading rules on trading.

[sspences88]

bro mere khayal me to sb se ziada hmara Greedy ho jana ha,dosra hum kuch b theek trike se analysis kye bgair trend ko follow krte hoe order place kr dete ha,ye sb cheze hr baar loss ka sabab bnti ha,sb se pehle hme ache se ek theek strategy bnani chahye phr order krna chahye jald bazi nahi krni chahye:respect:

[rahul]

jee bilkul, discipline hi nehi hota trading mien, ager yeh discipline maintain ho jaye to kabhi preshaani na ho, hum ek weqt to apni strategy follow kertay hien lekin lalch ki weja sey apni strategy k beghair trade ker detay hien aur is ka nuqsaan uthaana perta hey, humien apnay emotions per control kernay ki puri koshish kerni ho gi

[sayem]

Ji haa lalach koi bhe business ke liye accha sabit nahi hota or Forex me lalach matlab aap kabhi accha nahi kar payenge. jabtak ye rahega aapki mind me tabtak aapka nuksan he hoga. yahape lalach ki koi jaga nahi hay. hume isko control me rakhna chahiye.

[viky]

I think a lot of factors to make trader ang loss, but I think the trader may want to get rich quick in trading, it can not konrol emotion, no discipline, does not have a good trading plan, so the trader is often loss.

[LeeMinHo]

I think a lot of factors to make trader ang loss, but I think the trader may want to get rich quick in trading, it can not konrol emotion, no discipline, does not have a good trading plan, so the trader is often loss.
Not do discipline well is one of reason which let traders get many loss here . In forex trading , traders should follow the trading rules well , if traders break the rules , they will often get the bad results only .

[babu]

I think that this bad quality is the main reason behind my loss on forex date. I do not know how to overcome it. Other reasons may be impatience, poor risk management, trends and also other unconfirmed things

[Hansip]

forex trading is high risk, because of that become a forex trader must always remember to protect his capital from big loss and after can succes become expert trader forex trading become no high risk again.

[dadaa]

Lack of money management and aiming to gain more in less time is only due to an urge to become rich in short time. The greed is the main factor behind all this situation and one must overcome this greed factor to stop loosing his trades.

[Ramnit]

There are so many motivation for loss in forex trading
but some reasons are frequent in every trader like lack of acquaintance, greed, fear,
and trader don’t control their sentiment, no money management etc.
if we want to be save our capital then we must require to be getting proper learning

[nurhidayah]

I think most of forex traders doing loss their business for reason of greedy .
they do not satisfied to low profit in trading -as a result they fall in greedy and do loss in trading .

low profits that have been obtained and ultimately a greater likelihood of loss of the gains, so that in the conduct of this strategy over the greed that can not be separated from the minds of traders who wanted to get rich overnight without any knowledge of good

[nitishdeb87]

Low capital
Inadequate risk management
Indecisive Trading
Greed
Chasing Trend
Not admiting and realising own mistakes

thanks friend for your awesome thread and i agree with you almost all the points and i also feel its important after loosing one my account suppose yesterday i will lose 40 dollars is own mistakes..

[yanni]

Low capital
Inadequate risk management
Indecisive Trading
Greed
Chasing Trend
Not admiting and realising own mistakes

You have classified the reasons my brother, and on top of that most traders lose their capital every day, because they do not have much experience, and each day 98% of traders lose by they are greedy and can not controlled their emotions during trading.

[Ramnit]

As a trader we already identified our mistakes and how could it affects drastically with our trading account. We are aware already why our account never last a month because our strategy sucks but still we can't find the right way to change. That is sad.

I think they lost in the trade because of their lack of learning and understanding about the strategy and how to manage finances properly. This is important because that will make the course of our trade.

[ken arok]

Experiences will make perfects so if we wanted to make our trading better than before so we must improve our trading with do many trading. With doing many trading so that can make us know how to trade well because we will know many strategies after we did many trading.

[moti]

l think we have to add also not using money management rules and also not using stoploos.these two are very important.l think if a trader just risk 5% of his capital per trade even he make some mistakes with his decisions still he can recover.but the main reason is most of the newbies will just open a trade and never want to close it until it will not make profit.and they will also not use stoploose.

[dineshji]

i think the main reason of loss in forex less knowledge and weak ness in trading strategy or not aware of news.
if above all things are very strong in our trading then there is very less chance to got loss.
we also need to control on emotions also.

[Ramnit]

I think there are many reasons behind trading loss .but main reason is lack of
trading knowledge .without minimum trading no body can successful in forex trading .

yes, and planning is important for us to do before we do the trade, but planning is often we forget because we usually rush in to trade. for it to avoid a big loss then do the planning before the trade to be successful in trading

[sumonmia0526]

your last number point is completely true for several trader coz they never realize their mistake and they never think that they risk all their money and i m one of them .but over trading tendency and playing with market is another type of sin for losing

[insta1988]

I think greed hi hai jo loss karwati hai agar app greedy nahi hain to app apni position 5$ ya 10$ par nikal saktay hain easily par app aisa nahi karty kyoun k app chahty hain k app ziada amount hasil krain or iss chakkar main app loss kar dety hain.

[wavestraders]

If we do not control our emotions we cannot do successful trades. Fear of loss is also a big factor of losing money. we should put a good stop loss take profit limits and just let it be done with patience,

[sunil]

We can overcome all these if we apply risk managment techniques and money managment techniques along with these a good strategy also required,

[Ramnit]

If we do not control our emotions we cannot do successful trades. Fear of loss is also a big factor of losing money. we should put a good stop loss take profit limits and just let it be done with patience,

The most common reason of losing in forex is people tend to think forex trading as a fast way of earning. But its not a fast method to become rich over-night. May be for someone luckily if got huge returns at the very beginning of trading then you also think its easy to earn.

[maroof2012]

But as per my 3 years experience I want say only one thing that the main reason is lack of knowledge of good money management, so this is the main factor and most of the traders wants to get big profit with in a night and they forget money management.

Hello brother,
Your statement is true and fully agreed with you. Every trader wants money within few days, weeks or months. They not known how is earning but maximum knowledgeable trader trades with their limitation and earn reasonable money.

[wendhrie]

Trade with emotion is a major mistake which often most of the trader do. The first thing is demo account is very effective is that there is huge equity so an trade can be long in trader until in turn into the profit.

[darksaimon]

an important module down disadvantage is the demand of becoming strategy.We should tally healthful skills which can be achieved from fitting activity in demonstrate relationship,translate the sector properly and finance at the honorable case.Also the uppercase management plays a large role in avoiding disadvantage.

[scorpian7]

My main reasons of loss are :

No proper risk management ,
Greed (emotional instability) and
No discipline while taking profit and taking loss.

But with the passage of time I am learning to curb these mistakes.

[netra]

you are correct in your talk. I also think that if trader can have a plan to stop bad trade before loss of up to 10% of capital, then trader will always be able to have good capital to trade with if have good signal. and will have more win trade than loss trades.

[Forexboy]

I think too aggressive and defensive in nature can we do with the loss of the chance to make profit and can run as the main reason for losing. The trader must know that they must think positive and patience in time of investment in the market. So they could avoid the risk of loss. Thinking of trading mature market is necessary to make it a profitable place in the Forex.

[kuttus]

I therefore agree with the opinion, one of the success in forex trading is, how we can control ourselves well, eliminating the greed,
the fast forward successfully with no good calculation ....
Greediness is one of that bad thing about forex any people who are too much greedy they will never ever get success in forex you need to control it with proper money management

[sweety]

My main reason of loss was mind divert during the trading . i looses my mind sometimes in trading then i had a huge loose in this. And also i was not able to focus on my mistakes done during the Forex trading. these are main reasons of my loos in trading.

[regu]

The trend is your friend for most of the time as long as you can identify it.The possibility of recession just that with experience we have get then these risks can manage.The obstacle to get success in this business and also it is not caused of loses.The some traders suffer losses is that they do not have enough knowledge about forex .If you want to safeguard yourself from loss then take every decision very carefully.

[venus]

There are many reasons which could cause loss in forex, mostly traders will get losses when they didn't have enough knowledges
about how to trade in many different conditions. And you must use realistic target because if you used unrealistic target, it can make
you suffer big losses.

From my opinion maybe lack of proper knowledge and greediness are two main causes of loss in forex trading. Often people underestimate the importance of knowledge and fail badly in trading.

[naziafarhan]

I think main reason for loss in forex market is the greed . for greed we may try to make a hypothetical profit in one day and then we try to overtrade. By that we may loss a big amount of money then we may loss a big.

[sinaga]

The main reason for losing traders are traders always want to make huge profits. traders have not been able to discipline manage the funds he has in the trade and could not calculate the risk of loss that he could receive. mistakes that he always did until he realized he would not lose all their capital

[birbolnath]

Without knowledge about forex, no idea about market movement, avoid money management and risk management, fail to controlling emotion, start trading without stop loss process are the main reasons for loss in forex market i think.

[guztan]

I think too much of aggressive and defensive nature can loss the chance of making profit and may turn as the main reason of loss.Traders should know that they should think positive and be patience in the time of investment in the market.so,that they could avoid the chance of loss .Mature trading thinking is needed in the market to make it a profitable place.

[lights]

most people in the forex loss is too greedy, so do not use good money management. this includes me. however, after experiencing the loss and the margin call, I began to be more disciplined in use my capital

[Hansip]

Every day a lot peoples joining forex trading to earn money .
but most them are failed in trading .the reasons of trading loss is very greediness to trading .
during the trading situation greedy is very harmful for every forex traders .

that we often experience loss in trading, perhaps because we are not setting a good manajemaen, or do we always feel a little dissatisfied with the outcome. whereas in the trade we are in demand patience and consistency.

[barkiman]

that we often experience loss in trading, perhaps because we are not setting a good manajemaen, or do we always feel a little dissatisfied with the outcome. whereas in the trade we are in demand patience and consistency.
usually it is, brother. greed is the source of your losses. I also argue, greed related to the amount of your capital. If your capital is small, there is a feeling to be making a huge profit, so that you become the fastest growing capital.

[mohamedsaleh]

i goes with every thing you said . this are the reason of loss . and i just add to the list that if can't manage your risk or your decision it will go wrong and it will take your money . many of my friend doesn't make a strategy they just go buying and selling .

[rock]

We need to go for the trading with the patience.We need the experience here also we have to go for the trading with the news so that we can be winner and also we have to trade with the indicators.

[atif58]

I think about the matter that - there are many reasons behind the trading loss .
the main reason is lack of trading knowledge .
without minimum trading knowledge no body can success in forex business .
Yes brother if someone has good knowledge then automatically he will have confidence in his trading decisions. By good knowledge all other factors can be minimize that cause losses. Like if a trader has good knowledge then he will avoid emotions and will trade with his skills.

[mmassi]

I think there is much reason to lose and should be avoided as being aggressive in trade and also the loss of the chance to make money and also other emotional reason. The Trader must know that they must think positive have patience in time of investment in the foreign exchange market. when he could avoid the risk of loss. Think positively if and when it's all security measures during a trade.

[Nezamahmedchy]

The main reasons is that number 1. we are human being we cant control our emotions 2. Everybody started his 1st trade with low capital. 3. nobody want to study more about forex 4. nobody want to get profit slowly everybody want to profit instant and 5. most of the people don't use money management.

forex trading is indeed a very bad thing which is quite large, therefore we should prepare ourselves before entering the start of trading. psykologys prepare healthy. who dare to face the risks.forex trading is a business with huge potential that can be done by any person who could do and running the learning process until it works

[pkyadav]

mere vichar se forex me loss hone ki koi ek wajah nahi hoti lekin fir bhi mukhy wajaho me lalach,dhary kho dena,galtio ki punnrabrati karna ,news ko dhyan na dena aadi hai.kabhi kabhi ham galat pair ka bhi chunab kar lete hai ya ham jyada valume ko trade kar lena bhi ek loss ka karan ho sakta hai

I mean that are these not original reason for lossing.
I think that added with other that ...
01. insufficient knowledge of Money management and risk management.
02. Fully depended on Indicators and news.
03. Stop loss and Take profits unused.
04. Not allow the news and forecaster value.
05. Unrecognized the capital and lot, margin.

[ali1011]

greed or fear dono ap k dushman hen yeh he main karan hoty hen loss k mujhy to lagta hy greed sy aap achy trader nhi ban sakty or normal trading nhi kr skaty ap aik din achi trade karen geen dosry din ap ka account below ho sakta hy greed wala trader kabi kamyab nhi ho sakta .

[mmja2003]

Besides of other facts, I think greed is the one great thing of being loser. When I get some profit then I think market may grow up and I do not sell or I think the profit too much little in comparison of my efforts and I dont sell and consequently I become loser.

[ruhelkkr]

Yes this could be. Greed is the mane reasons for loss. And low capital is also good reasons for loss.
And sometime people loss their capital for own lazyness.

[vanigota]

I think if you dont learn your mistake then it is not good for your trading. Some time we dont control out emotion and dont follow risk management and entry big lot size. If you should control your greediness and follow good rules and learn from your mistake then you overcome lose.

[kali58907]

first reason of loss is action time.if your timing is correct then every trade will in your favour,timing means to ensure the action taken by you should be according to market trend.

[talha007]

Bro......You are 100% right there is no doubt .I also think lack of knowledge about forex and lack of practice in demo account and lack of knowledge about forex is the reason of loss money from forex.So we should be practice and learn forex properly.

[maroof2012]

I think the main reason for loss is not gain knowledge,less learning process, become a greedy, be hurry, not take decision on proper time, fully unaware the forex trading, shake confidence, not take a risk. These are basic mistakes of failure of forex trading.

The main reason traders often experience loss is less well to control emotions. Given our emotions will often feel a sense greed, fear, etc.. But if we can control it well, then we will go forward by itself.

[hitesh]

jee bilkul, discipline hi nehi hota trading mien, ager yeh discipline maintain ho jaye to kabhi preshaani na ho, hum ek weqt to apni strategy follow kertay hien lekin lalch ki weja sey apni strategy k beghair trade ker detay hien aur is ka nuqsaan uthaana perta hey, humien apnay emotions per control kernay ki puri koshish kerni ho gi

[aarti]

reason to bohot hien loss k lekin jo mujehy sab ssey bera reason legta hey woh stop loss ka na legaana hey, bohot sey traders yeh ghelti ker detay hien aur apna loss kerwatey hien aur yahan tek k apna account hi blow ker detay hien

[barkiman]

yes, it is. we often experience loss due to a lack of discipline in the transaction. also assume that the price was too high or low just by feeling it. because prices have gone down or up very much. when in fact the trend continues. so you have the wrong position.

[dragon]

The main reason traders often experience loss is less well to control emotions. Given our emotions will often feel a sense greed, fear, etc.. But if we can control it well, then we will go forward by itself.

Yes, emotion control is important thing to prevent big losses and you should use good analysis too because it will be useless
to have good emotion control but you didn't have good analysis. You won't be greedy when there is emotion control so you
won't lose more than you can afford to take but you couldn't gain profit consistently if there is no good analysis.

[forex@meta4]

lot of aggressive and defensive nature can loss the chance of making profit and may turn as the main reason of loss.Traders should know that they should think positive and be patience in the time of investment in the market.so,that they could avoid the chance of loss.

[joko]

But according to my 3 years of experience, I mean only one thing that the main reason is lack of knowledge of good money management, if not the most important and most traders get very large profits through the night and forget about money management.

Good money management is only part of reasons which cause losses in forex, but good analysis is important thing too. It's useless to have good money management only because it will manage profit and loss in each transaction but if there is no good analysis, the possibility of profit won't be higher. So I prefer to say good analysis and good money management which should be prepared to become good traders.

[MarginCall]

bad psychology like greed is indeed one of the factors that often becomes the reason causes loss, I also often experience a loss due to unable to control the bad psychology such as greed,

[MarginCall]

i think the main reason to loss is that traders do not find the suitable entry point in forex and they open the trades with big lots but as entry point is wrong so they lose the money very quickly.

we just have to understand one thing in the forex trading that the real Causes of loss in trading very important because we need to know the reason why we lose the trade in other for correction to be make but if we can not analysis the reason for the lost then there is a big problem

There are other common reasons that traders fall short of being fully intentional such as
1- Fatigue and mental overload create a loss of concentration
2- Overconfidence follows a string of successes
3- Unwillingness to accept losses
4- Trading positions that are excessive for the account size
5- Trading a time frame, style, or market that does not match your talents, skills, risk tolerance, and personality

[hamadmuneer]

main reason to yehi ha na ke humain itna knowledge he nahi hota trading ke bary main
is ke bad huara money management system be acha nahi hota is ke bad main factor
is greed is se bach jain to acha hai

[sasa0220]

I think the most important factor is money management.Lack of money management is always resulted in failing in trading. Money management is very important because you must be prepared to worse market condition and should be able to survive even during such conditions

[digger_jim]

I like to think that there is no main reason of losses. I'm afraid if I think there is one, I would be reckless by the time I overcome it. Many reasons for many mistakes could make me alert every time.

[sazzad]

I think that the main reason of losing money in the market is greediness ,emotion and also lack of knowledge about the market situation because if we do trade with these things then we must fall in loss.

[dragon]

I like to think that there is no main reason of losses. I'm afraid if I think there is one, I would be reckless by the time I overcome it. Many reasons for many mistakes could make me alert every time.

I am disagree with you. There is main reason of losses in forex and mostly losses was caused by our own mistakes. It could be
caused by lack of knowledges and experiences or it could be caused by bad emotion control. And it's important to learn from our
mistakes in forex.

[seahawks90]

lack of knowedge and skills always leads a trader to loose his total capital most of the times so i think this is the main reason why most of the traders become failed in this field.

[drama]

I don't think we can really list the main reasons for loss because it usually all depends on the market. For example if the trading margins are good and you decide to invest in a large sum, you will earn an even larger sum, while most people will call this greed others will call it risk assessment. No matter how cautious you are there are no right and wrong decisions in this market, the only thing you need to learn is when to call and when to fold, learn the market in and outs and you are master.

[nazia]

I think that main reason for loss in forex is that we are emotionally involved in our trading especially when we goes to loss and don,t think analysis our trading that what things are wrong in our trading and can,t try to correct it.

[julianambas]

I agree with you to say that the loss that we suffer because of the emotions that are not good in themselves think.
greed, not disciplined and not hesitate in making decisions is not very good properties dlam we do forex trading.
by krena that we need discipline to achieve any success in forex trading.

[MarginCall]

agree with this post, but that should be our concern is to find a way out of all this,
because maybe people will know with a small capital benefits will also be small and so are the next ..

There are lots of traders out there who are making loads and loads of profits from forex trading without encountering losses. They may have a bad trade or two but that may be out of 20 winning trades.

[naijafx]

Winning in forex will mean hard work and alot of time towards the business. Practice makes perfect, because i know emotion is an issues, after practicing for long, tips to controlling emotions are learnt

[golpo20]

When we all manage values involving Currency trading after that it is possible for individuals in order to avoid any kind of damage inside Currency trading but quite often traders ignore values when they want to make a huge amount of benefit which can make these to eliminate their funds. Getting strong or maybe defensive is additionally not very good.

[TauqeerHaiderRizvi]

meray kheyaal say sab say bara reason jiss ki wajha sey zeyada taar trader apna capital loss kartey hain woh un ki lalach (greed) hoti hay. Jiss ko hum control nahi kar patey aur uss kay hathoon apna loss kara lete hain. Lalach (greed) he har cheez ji jaar hay ager hum apni iss buri adaat per control kar leen tu hum aik achey trader ban saktey hain.
