1. Invest your spare funds.
If an investor invests in foreign exchange at the expense necessary for family life, in case of loss, it will affect the investor’s daily livelihood and increase the investor’s chance of failure in the market.
The investment with a sum of money that is not originally invested will cause a kind of pressure to the investor. At this time, the judgment of the investor will be affected, and it is difficult to make an objective and calm decision.
2. Try not to overtrade.
If you want to be a successful investor, you should always have enough money to cope with price fluctuations.
Once the problem of insufficient funds occurs, it is necessary to minimize the sale and purchase contracts held at hand, otherwise it may be due to the lack of funds and through the creation of funds, even if they can prove that their vision is good.

A hopeful person, he is a happy and unhappy person, but he is not a good candidate for investing, because successful investors can separate emotion from trading.
4. Don’t be blind.
If you want to be a successful investor, don’t blindly follow what others say.
If everyone thinks it’s time to buy, many investors are likely to follow suit, and successful investors are likely to wait for an opportunity to sell.
This is very similar to the contrarian principle, for the right investment is still helpful.
5. Know your enemy.
Investors should know their own personality, emotional or impulsive people are a good fit for investing.
Investors should be able to control their emotions and effectively restrain themselves, which is very helpful to help their investment.
6. Learn to say no to others’ opinions.
If investors have a basic judgment about the direction of the market, then don’t let others influence them to change their decisions.
Sometimes you may change your decision because you think someone else’s opinion is more reasonable, only to find out that you made the right decision.
Simply put, the opinions of others can be referred to, their own opinions are the need to adhere to.
7. Make quick decisions.
In the foreign exchange market, there are many psychological factors that may lead to the failure of investment. The most common one is not the fluke mentality, but the hesitation of investors. As a result, the investment may lose more funds because of not making the decision in time.
8. Don’t change your mind easily.
Investors should first set the price and plan to enter the market that day, and do not make changes easily because of sudden price fluctuations. Investors’ temporary decisions on the change of the price and the disappearance of the market are often more dangerous.
