Hello happy Sunday!

After fighting in the markets from Monday to Friday (HAHAHA😅), the weekend especially Sunday is actually the perfect time to pause and reflect on how our trading went.

Today I just want to share something based on my own personal experience. Hopefully, some of you can relate to this too. Most of the time, we spend so much energy on strategies and technical setups, but we tend to ignore one crucial factor TRADING PSYCHOLOGY.

Have you ever felt like this?
  • You know you can trade, you know you can be profitable, yet your decision-making is often poor and inconsistent.
  • You already planned your entry and exit before trading, but when the time comes… fear takes over. You don’t follow your own plan and end up doubting yourself.
I realized that reflecting on these things day by day, week by week is important. Why? Because it shows that we are aware and that we truly want to grow. For me personally, most of these struggles come down to FEAR. Some call it LOSS AVERSION.

Of course, this can look different for each trader whether you’re scalping, trading intraday, swing trading, or even holding positions long term. But in the end, it all comes back to one key solution AWARENESS.

Be aware of your emotions. Acknowledge that fear and hesitation exist. Don’t try to completely erase them, but learn to accept them. Often, the way we handle our emotions in trading is connected to our daily habits and even our background outside the market. I’d say 80% of your habits in life will reflect in how you trade.

So, I hope this little Sunday sharing is useful for you all. And I’d love to hear your own experiences too let’s learn and grow together here at Galileo FX!

✨ Happy weekend & stay mindful!
