This is because we do not want to accept losses, for us we can avoid and trading can be done without ever suffering losses, so we do it and that is a very wrong mind

Traders who often hold back plotting minus are because they are very sure if the price will reverse direction according to the position he is opening.

I also often do that where I hold down plotting minus for a long time, but what happens is that my account stops out.

this is because we still don't want to accept losses in trading, meaning that Kuta's mind is still wrong because we think that trading can always make a profit every time a transaction

I think that holding a floating minus position will be easier than holding a floating position that has already produced because indeed when we experience a floating minus we try to open our position, we will immediately get a floating plus

usually the expectation for the price to turn around and expect the price to match the open position must be large. and if the price is appropriate, usually a little profit closes. well actually this can be overcome with SL and TP. if the floating minus can not be too deep and if it hits SL and the price reverses direction according to predictions, then consider it not our luck.

If we prefer to hold floating minus rather than hold floating plus, it means that our trading mindset is still not correct, we still hope that the market will be kind to us. Whereas in trading we should not rely on the market, we cannot control the market.

Basically, humans don't want to lose, so they don't like it if we close a position in a loss. Even though floating minus is like a disease, if the disease is maintained it can even be fatal.

that no one wants to feel the loss in running a business. but the fact is that there are always losses in running a business, especially forex trading.

because most people/traders don't want to lose.
Because by doing a cutloss, it reduces our balance portion to be able to enter a maximum lot again.. And for sure, when the cutloss or SL is hit, then we have realized the loss..
Meanwhile, when it's floating, it's still not certain... It could come back again and it is hoped that it will return soon

Indeed, it is an obstacle or challenge that must be faced by a novice trader.. Because this makes the risk reward ratio very unhealthy.. Where the drawdown reaches 50% for example, while the profit only gets 1%. Very unbalanced..

Actually waiting for floating minus to reverse direction or at least break even is not a form of patience, bro, but feelings of fear and anxiety if our account will experience MC or loss is getting bigger so that we are afraid to close positions, secondly because we are not willing to suffer losses beyond our psychological limits

Floating MInus seems to be something we easily want to believe that price will somehow make a reversal in the direction we gave it too because we are not even sure about what we want from the market when we trade.

I don't know why because I also do something like that maybe because I don't want to lose my money so I wait until there is a moment where the price reverses maybe like that

maybe because by using or holding a floating minus position we feel that I believe my Open Position will be profitable, but what happens is the opposite and it happens a lot around us, therefore when our position is wrong, yes, we must be sincere, don't we hold back his
