In this section we provide the interested party to him in investing in FOREX even more recommendations, behaviors, psychological attitudes, ways of proceeding that they him will be helpful to manage to be a successful e-trader.


- NOT TO LOSE ANY MORE OF THE PLANNED. This is an important aspect at the time of investing in FOREX. This tip goes of the hand with all the recommendations about a plan is planned and to continue it perfectly.


We know that when a strategy is planned one of the principal points, to bear in mind, is all that is the maximum thing that we are ready and can tolerate to lose. To know this is the losses limit that we plan ourselves on having invested. If sabrepasamos this limit not only we are leaving of the planned plan, but we are taking more risks than we can allow ourselves to run. To go out of this one limit can transport such a big loss to us, that it affects significantly not only the investment capital, but our disposition and psychological attitude to invest.


To avoid this it is necessary to be conscious of when one is operating with revenge spirit. The revenge spirit is that that it arises when one is losing on having invested but he believes blindly that the things are going to improve, that the currency is going to take the course wished in any moment. Sometimes to exceed the limits brings positive consequences, nevertheless, really much more it risks to lose that what really it is possible to gain.


In addition to it, to do this encourages an indiscipline attitude at the time of investing, that makes us be ready to leave from our plans to the first occurrence of our mind, or handled by our emotions. The world of the investment is a world that needs to be methodical and to realize very well what is done and why it is done. The opposite conduct generates too many stress, confusion and, in the long run, losses.


- TO PLACE LIMITS OF LOSS REASONABLY WIDE. This happens when in FOREX we use the order “stop loss”. This order can be programmed in an operation so that it is cancelled when it comes to certain limit where we are losing money. There are persons who, on having invested, put this order in a very narrow limit.


To do this is not suitable because the flow of the currencies has naturally a few lines of ascent and others of descent that, in spite of it, can have a tendency to the rise or a tendency to the descent. This way, it is possible that, on having invested in FOREX, a tendency is identified correctly, open the order to him, this one begins to produce with one “stop loss” strait and be cancelled in one of the natural combs or vales of the graph of the currency; what would bring as a result two things: A small loss, which although kidling, is a loss. For another side, to lose the opportunity to win when we have interpreted correctly the market.


- TO BE PROVIDED WITH A CORRECT ATTITUDE BEFORE THE LOSSES. He has already explained himself in the previous article that is important to learn of the errors. This is an attitude that allows us to see the error, more than like something negative, like something truly constructive and positive in the way of the investment. To invest bearing in mind this advice is of big utility.


Nevertheless, this is not the only thing that it is necessary to bear in mind on having had losses. It is important also to give him one checked to our psychological state before the fact of operating and of investing. Often the losses generate a notch in our mental state that is important to put attention. There are generated attitudes as the spirit of revenge or a pessimistic attitude. In both cases, we are not deciding scrupulously but we allow ourselves to handle for the emotion. This way, it is important to be attentive to our mental state after suffering a loss. If the loss has destabilized us very much, the most advisable thing is to stop investing and having a time to recover the balance.

- TO OPERATE WITH THE TENDENCIES. In general, the foreign exchange market in any pair of coins has a tendency, be towards the fall or towards the valuation. To discover these tendencies, to do the operation and to move back on time, before the tendency changes, is the key of the success on having invested in FOREX.


It happens often that, because of certain anxiety species for playing, the investor intervenes during certain momentary conditions of the market although he knows that the tendency of this one is the opposite one to that one which it enters to invest. The consequence of it in most cases is an ingenuous loss, in addition to the subsequent instability consequences at the time of investing, anxiety and mental instability.


TO MOVE BACK ON TIME: It is important to identify the moment into which the market is going to change his tendency. On the market when a currency is valued with regard to other one it is because most of the investors are buying it and when one is depreciating it is because they are selling the majority.


To go forward to this movement is the key of winning on having invested. The important thing is to move back before the tendency changes, before the investors begin to buy instead of selling or to sell instead of buying. This way, you will be buying when they want to sell all and selling when they want to buy all. His currency will have been valued when you the blindfold and it will have depreciated when you decide to buy.
