TRADING PSYCHOLOGY - REALISTIC EXPECTATION 5 PIPS A DAY

Everyone should have a goal in trading.

I remember when I started trading I thought that for every trade I should make 100pips a day.

But that is not realistic.

So far with my trading I saw a big improvements and I can say I can make some decent profits on each trade and of course some acceptable loosing trade.

Then if I will reduce my expectation, to how many pips I can make, it will also reduce my emotional attachment to each of my trade. I want to trade as unemotionally as I can. If I win 5pips ok, if I win 25/50/60 pips per trade thats fine. If i loose 30pips that fine.

On average 20 trading days in a month x 5 pips = 100pips per month.

Sounds small in a month but being consistent with outcome combined it with my money management. It is so powerful.

I already have a one year objective for my trade business using 5 pips per trade profit.
