Query : I learnt trading myself. Initially I got profit. I started to lose money when I increased my position size. What should I do now? Have you seen any one who learnt to drive car themselves? If you want to learn driving from whom you will learn? Not from race car drivers. Right? I interact with people who want to become traders. They all have this mindset 1. Trading is easy 2. I can learn trading by browsing or studying from internet. 3. I can earn jackpot money from trading daily. 4. If I attend some workshop by a famous trader, next day I can trade. Always remember theory is different from real time. In internet you will find articles saying "over bought/over sold" levels are this one and when an indicator reaches this level you can reverse your trade. And after becoming a trader only you will realise price action wont reverse in overbought/oversold conditions. We have to check other conditions to find the reversal. A person who truly wants to become trader wont think he can read the theory from net and become trader at once. World's sharphest minds/brains are trading in share market and to save your money from them you need lot of practise. And after that only you can think about earning money. Trading is a serious game and dont do experiments in it. Being over confident about one's own self wont help in trading. Note : I cant teach trading to everybody who ask me to teach them trading. I expect certain qualities from a person to become a trader. And to them only I will teach. I know human psychology and I can assess a person's mind set easily.
