Forex trading is one of the fastest ways to make money online if you are lucky. Otherwise you can lose all your capital to the trading especially if you a beginner.

Those who have succeeded in the trade are self disciplined and self controlled by abiding by the rules and regulations that govern forex trading success.

One of the rules you must follow to succeed in the trade is plan.
Your plan should include : how much you can endure to lose and your profit goals. If you don't have these in mind, you may feel very sad and frustrated whenever there's a loss. If you fail to plan you have already planned to fail.

Another one is over expectations.
As a beginner, this can make you invest much more money than you can lose. If you expect more profits from your trading, you may be tempted not to sell your currencies at the right time when you will make a lot of profits.


Suggest other ways in which risk can be avoided in forex trading.

I think one method to avoid risk in forex , is to invest wisely and learn the necessary strategies before you make an investment action ,so your loss would not be high and gains would be more, you need to learn both technical and fundamental analysis then know how to apply them when trading

What we have to understand is that the market generally is a risky market and even the best expert in most cases will always lose his money in some point.. But to be able to stay profitably in the forex market , you should only losing 30% of the trade and at least make good and reasonable profit in 70% of the time. If it is a little bit lower than that it will be very difficult for you to maintain both losses and gain at the same time as a tradee.

You just have to go through a normal learning process that is all , then after you are done with the learning process you can start using a demo account which is provided by a lot of forex platforms.fir your practice.

Becoming a full expert will definitely take a lot of time and it is never a get-rich-quick scheme

First of all we need to really understand what forex trading is all about . From my little understanding it is a trading of a country's currency against another , Depending on your market prediction you can either sell a country's currency or buy depending on the analysis you have made. The most difficult aspect in trading of forex is how you can accurately predict the market movement , that is when so many people are likely to lose because most times some of their prediction are not always what they expect..

In any case , the only way you can possibly minimise your possibility of losing in the forex market is just to have a perfect understanding of what you are doing because with that he will know how to trade professionally . Professional traders do not lose because they understand how to use the market for their own advantage .

Placing stop loss at the start of your journey is a good way to lower the risk that can affect your trades. Practice on a demo account to get a vague idea on the market conditions. Trade with logic and smart moves. Take your time to learn, be alert.

It is impossible to completely avoid losses. However, you can reduce risks by implementing specific strategies. It is beneficial to learn about money and risk management and to apply this knowledge to reduce risk to some extent.

Always trade with good risk management! Make sure that you use stop losses, T/P orders, and other technical tools that can preserve your trading capital and minimise losses. Be cautious of your emotions and trade on the basis of facts.

Some ways of measuring risks in forex trading -
  1. Always set a stop loss in every trade. For beginners, I’d suggest setting a stop loss of maximum 20 pips.
  2. Analyse the market from before hand and plan your trade before executing
  3. Develop your trading psychology so that you don't let your emotions mendel with your logical thinking
  4. Make a limited amount of trades in a day
  5. Trade with the leverage which you will be ready to pay back

To combat risks, you must comprehend the current market scenario, create a well-organised plan, and stay up to date on the latest developments. You also need to stop being greedy and trade with a proper risk management strategy. Traders can boost their chances of generating money in the market if the risk is reduced. Per trade risk should always be a negligible proportion of total capital. A good beginning point is to risk 2% of your trading capital. Also, never deal with money you cannot afford to lose.
