One more mistake and it is the end of everything for you.

It is one of the unwritten protocols in trading securities, whether it is a commodity or a stock. Committing mistakes on the earlier part of your trading career is acceptable since you are just learning the ins and outs of trading in the market. There are trades that you must not deal with, yet you have closed it instead, thus resulting to several losses at the end of the trading period. Learning from your mistakes will help you deal with your succeeding trades the right way.

Trading different securities (stocks, commodities, and currencies) does not always translate to huge profit at the end of each trading period. Due to several factors that affect the performance of a particular security in the market within a trading period (volatility of prices, less supply and great demand of a security or vice versa), there are times that you will lose some of your investment in a trade. There are also instances wherein your profit is less than what you have predicted at the start of the trade.
