10 Reasons You're Not Making $ In Your Trading

If you aren’t making money from your trading yet, you're not alone.  Lots of people who make up their minds to "give trading a try" find themselves unable to extract consistent profits in the early stages... if ever.

The good news is that the reasons most traders aren't profitable are fairly common... and predictable.

More important, the reasons are correctable...

Once you identify the reason (or reasons) you're failing to make money in the market, you can move on to the all-important task of correcting your missteps.  Once you do that, you can replace the bad habits that you may have developed with good trading principles (habits) that will help deliver consistent profits into your account.

If you’re at a bad place in your trading at the moment, don't get discouraged. Trading is not a get rich quick scheme.  It pretty much can't be... not long-term anyway.  And despite some of the nonsense you read online, there are no short-cuts or hacks to "the big money."

It takes time, effort and an ability to make mistakes, correct them quickly and move on, in order to make money trading. Most important, it takes both the willingness and the ability to change how you think to become a consistently profitable trader.  Like trading itself, developing skill as a trader is a process.  If you're sufficiently committed, as you correct your mistakes, improve and move on you will, eventually, start profiting consistently.
