One major mistake most traders make after going through loss in the forex market, is to continue trading. They assume once they loose, they can easily gain back what they have loss by picking up another trade in the opposite direction. This mindset is pretty common, especially amongst new traders. Whenever you experience loss the best thing to do is stop trading. Take a break to cool down your emotions, when we are emotional we tend to take wrong or drastic decisions. Take a break to cool down or thoughts, then the next step is to find out why you had losses, the mistake made and most importantly what needs to be done next to avoid such mistakes.
