    The bigger the profit is the more they want to take it before it gets away.

    The logic is you can’t go broke taking a profit, but you can.

    You need to run profits to cover your inevitable loses, if you don’t your account equity will soon be gone.

    So how about some positive advice?

    Here are a few points you need to learn when forex trading:

    1. Leverage to deal with it you need to enter and exit at optimum risk reward.

    2. You need to ignore short term noise and focus on long term trends, to cover your inevitable losses.

    3. You must risk to gain. Putting and trailing stops to close means you will never make money volatility will stop you out.

    4. You must accept dips in open equity and have the courage to run a trend for all its worth.

    5. Forex trading is competitive and you need a method that gives you an edge. If you don’t know what your edge is you don’t have one!

    The advantages of forex trading are huge disadvantages to, people who simply think they can open a newspaper, take a tip from a so called guru and make money, will lose pure and simple.
