Indeed, most of the novice and professional traders find it easier to hold a floating minus position than to hold a floating plus because for some reason they don't seem willing to lose their money and expect every transaction to end in profit.

because holding the position of the minus is better than holding the position of winning because holding the position of loss of course we will add it someday it can be an advantage But we don't know if there were pests at that time you should just use safety

we tend to always be able to hold a losing position because we don't want to experience any loss, we think that trading can be without loss, even though that's wrong

As far as I know, holding a minus position is easier and more comfortable than holding a profitable position when we feel a profitable position we will rush to close

maybe this is a mental aspect, because actually we have to be mentally strong in hold plus and cutloss in case of floating minnus.

when we experience floating minus we usually tend to be afraid and that's what drives us to hold protracted positions, it is very dangerous because it can threaten the security of our account and the habit is often done by traders who are still beginners.

This is because we are not willing to swallow losses in trading and of course this can make us experience a very large loss in the end

maybe because we are not sincere to say that our position is actually wrong but we try to defend ourselves and that is not a good thing

I also wonder why many people are willing to hold a losing position instead of holding a profit position if from my analysis because holding a profit position really can't make us calm because we want to quickly get results different from using holding losses

this happens usually because we don't want to accept losses in trading, so we will impose to continue to hold the loss position

In my opinion, why floating minus is easier to hold than floating plus because psychologically when we are faced with floating minus we are not willing to let our money just disappear and and can't get profit so as much as possible we have to hold it until the price reverses direction and ends with profit

because that is the nature of a Forex trader they prefer to hold a losing position rather than hold a profit position because when they are profitable they will quickly take profit while when they are experiencing a floating minus they will wait until the price reverses direction

winning a losing position is very easy in my opinion Because when we win a losing position, of course we will hope that everything is only temporary, it's different from us planting a profit position when we are profitable so as soon as we have to cut it so that we get a profit
