Trading teaches me more about life than life itself. The game of chance and risk is basically life, and of course everyday can't always be a win, some days, weeks and months will be bad. Thank you for this video, it all depends on your mindset

This just helped me out a lot, I had a losing day today, but I followed all of my rules and didn’t know what I should do. After watching this I reviewed my losses for the day and realized that while I was in profit, the market structure shifted and I stayed in too long until it stopped me out. I realized I need to work on being more objective while in trades instead of having a bias.

So much to unpack here! Thank you for this. It will take a lot of pain and thousands of losses to actually appreciate what you just said here. Thank you thank you thank you.

Thank you for this video I agree losing definitely hits triggers and being unprepared is big that one lost can either be brushed off easy or snow ball to something harsh

Thank you for sharing your experience and laying out key pointers as checklist that others can follow

Youre amazing man , you keep it simple and easy to understand market sentiments , entry and exit points .

These psychology videos are so valuable in a platform where everyone just wants to show TA and sell courses. Even if I don't trade like you, I appreciate the content and transparency, brother.

The reason you highlight the losses as well as wins is the main reason I consider you my favourite trader. Thanks for the nuggets.

Umar, this is one of the best videos you’re ever made. Today I had a ‘good’ bad trading day - I entered according to my plan but the market was disturbed by unknown variables and I hit my SL. Good thing is I only lost $70. Thank you for the good work you’re doing and inshallah you’ll succeed in life.

Damn this is such a high quality vid in such a short time. Bless

Hi Umar, I Thank you for building my trading Mindset

Hello Mr. Umar. In case nobody has told you, YOU ARE THE MOST HONEST TRADER HERE AS A RU-vidR! And I have the utmost respect and appreciation for all your effort. Keep up the good work 💯

👏👏👏 bravo. I’ll rewatch this occasionally to remind me

Great video, thank you!

i needed this perspective... to resurface..bcuz for almost 4 weeks i was trading smoothly... daily making satisfactory profits and minimal losses few days... but yesterday i just lost all that profits that i earned in last 3-4 weeks... all because of the shattered psychology. initially i was only making loss of 20% of total loss i actually lost yesterday... all bcuz of not letting go.. no stepping back and stubbornly overtrading as well big lot sizes. this all messed my mental algorithm and flow that i built in last few weeks.

Thank you brother

i will watch this every morning thank you umar

Wee all need this painful but healthy trading psihologi. Thank you!!!

Great video clip! Thank you.

Hey bro thanks for your videos!

Losses are a part of learning. I’ve had pretty large losses and the biggest way to come out of that negative experience and thoughts comes from finding out how it all went wrong and reevaluating my level of risk.

Your the most amazing person in this industry Walhi lots of respect

I love these type of video it re ground me when i lose and refocus me because i definitely over trade and and try to revenge trade

The only real trader on RU-vid..maybe there are more and I just haven’t seen them 😮

Fantastic video thank you

Great video!

Thank you sir for sharing your valuable experience.

Great video, it would really help my psychology

everytime I see your videos I feel a bit more motivated and disciplined. And you being realistic about the dark side of trading is just "WOW".

Absolutely awesome guidance, as always. You have a way of delivering content that is good for beginners and those who are advanced and have been trading for years. Folks, I can't stress enough, this IS trading. This is how it actually looks and the things that you deal with daily. Listen listen listen. Thank you for the content and keep it up!

Great session sir , it was really helpful

Valuable contents SL is our best friend its help lots to stay in the mkt for long time as well as its teach us how to take trade according to ur play book. If again loss then define good looser.

i didnt take this seriously until now and i have noted i do repeat the same mistakes oftenly which results to BAD losses.A mojor growth to me if i follow this advice.

I made loss in profits yesterday and today I was in good profit but end up taking a loss was very disappointed of my self but after watching this video and reviewing my trades I feel like I have made profits such is class of umar thank u

Thank you so much mann😘🤘🏻

need more videos on full breakdown of your trades and reason behind it in full depth

Good video Thanks for sharing

Thank you brother 🤗

Thanks, needed this video, been studying for around 3 years but it has been choppy, won’t give up tho

Brilliant analysis of trading psychology

Thank you for your words of wisdom sir

thanks bro.

Losses are wins as long as the loss is managed, plan was followed and learned something from the trade! Great video bro 🙏🏽

👏 All good advice I follow every "rule" you named and I have made every mistake that stated My biggest losses come when I try to get Ahead of the market instead of going With the market I lost money Not bc my projection was wrong, I lost bc I was right too far in advance 🤔

Good stuff 👍🏼

Informative ❤

The legend ! 📊🙏🏾

Very Strong point Umer Brother love you from Pakistan thanks for telling us more knowledge about Trading ❤❤❤❤ Love from Pakistan

Thanks for info 👍

Nice one and thanks . I also want to add, just like how you define a good loss and a bad loss, we must also define a good win and bad win. This will help us to avoid mistakes in the long run. If one wins in a trade which is not as per the game plan or strategy (by fluke) then it should be a bad win and this must also be avoided.

sometimes if I see small losses.. I will be happy because of warmup for the particular day to run and understand\keeping more eye chart\aggressive watch on momentum. Loss teaches me more lesseon.

Preach brother!

Love ur videos bro 😊❤love from India

Thank you Umar sir❤🙌

What a Real Trader 👍🏻👍🏻

Hello Mr. Umar Ashraf, I've been watching your RU-vid channel recently, and I think you're an amazing person. Your trading experiences are excellent, especially the video on "Recovering From Trading Losses." I have a small request: Could you please make a video explaining the Trailing Stop method? It's a smart way to stay safe while trading, helping you protect your profits and avoid significant losses. I'd love to learn about its pros and cons and how it actually works. Thank you for your videos, and may you be blessed.
