The market is just a stream of endless opportunities. Think about it… all the market does for 5 days a week 24 hours a day is go up and down and this gives us a chance to either place trades, take off losing trades or making some money on some trades that are in profit. The market is constantly giving us a chance to make decisions; good or bad!

Good Decisions

Many people have these grand ideas about what it means to be a trader, but at the end of the day the best traders are the best decision makers.

They are also the traders that can make decisions fast and act upon them without the slightest bit of fear or doubt. Professional traders do not start to question their trading method after 2 or 3 losses. What they do is continue to make the correct decisions without second guessing or hesitating for fear of what could be. Professional traders realise early that to make money consistently, they must make consistent decisions.[/text_block][/op_liveeditor_element]
