Yes, Looking At Your Worst Trades Can Help You Become a Better Trader By Dr. Pipslow December 17, 2021 1:04 PM UTC in Psychology Partner Center Find a Broker I know this might make you cringe but try looking at the worst trade you’ve ever had in your trade journal . Review the trade setup that you saw. Think about what went wrong and ask yourself, “ Why the heck did I ever take that trade in the first place? What was I thinking?! ” More importantly, “Was I even thinking?!” You probably just took that trade automatically based on a familiar setup. In this case, your decision was a result of your own way of thinking rather than what the market was telling you. Your worst trade doesn’t even have to be the one where you’ve incurred your largest loss. It can be a missed opportunity, when you hesitated to take what could’ve been your trade of the year, or when you locked in profits too early instead of letting it ride. You might’ve wimped out because of your fear of losing, e...

EURCHF is determined to improve its fortunes above the 20-day simple moving average (SMA) for the first time since mid-September, with the price crawling as high as 1.0465 in mid-European trading hours on Thursday following the plunge to a six-year low of 1.0360 at the start of the month. Although the  1.0480  bar is still laying overhead, the positive momentum in the RSI and its prolonged presence around the 30 oversold level suggests the bulls could keep the upper hand in the near term. The ongoing recovery in the MACD is backing this view as well, adding to hopes that a break above 1.0480 is possible. If true, the price could advance towards the 50-day SMA at 1.0540, while higher it could test the 1.0600 psychological mark before heading for the key 1.0650 handle. Below the 20-day SMA, the  1.0380-1.0360  zone may attempt to block the way towards the 1.0300 psychological number, and hence prevent an outlook deterioration in the broad picture. In the event sellin...

AUDUSD is climbing higher above the mid-Bollinger band at 0.7145 after rebounding at a 13-month low 0.6992, reached on December 3. That said, the gliding simple moving averages (SMAs) are defending the matured decline from the more than three-year high of 0.8006. The short-term oscillators are revealing waning in negative momentum as buying interest bolsters. The MACD, in the bearish region, is distancing itself above its red trigger line, while the RSI is nudging above the 50 threshold. Furthermore, the stochastic oscillator has regained a positive charge, endorsing bullish forces in the pair. If buyers remain in control, resistance could originate from the nearby 0.7225 barrier. Slightly higher, the approaching upper Bollinger band and the adjacent resistance zone between the 0.7276 obstacle and the 100-day SMA at 0.7309 may halt further advances from unfolding. However, if the price overshoots this barricade, the bulls may then seek out the 0.7370 high before tackling the reinfor...

REUTERS/Umit Bektas//File Photo LONDON (Reuters) -Turkey's central bank cut its policy rate again as expected by 100 basis points to 14% on Thursday despite inflation soaring above 21%, sending the lira to a fresh record low.

"I am concerned about the inflation outlook in the next two to three months, as the sharp weakening in the lira feeds through... inflation will definitely go above 30%." HALUK BU...
