This market is always changing in its nature and you need to synchronize your trading style with the latest changes in the market. If you are not sure then you need to seek help from the professional traders.

    They think the obvious
    These herds think in the most obvious way. You have to know and understand that this market is not as easy as it looks to your eyes. There can be many hidden trends, many false signals and you have to know how to identify these to save your money from the market. When new people come and invest in this market, they need guidance and the best way to trade the market seems to them is following the herds. When you are in a group, you will feel safer and think that if you have lost your money by following the groups, the others will also have lost their money. These type of psychology does not help you in building your career in Forex. You have to trade the market on your own. Herds do not know these and they are with the most obvious. Most of them do not know how to analyze and they place the trades that can be placed as random traders also. They lost their money and they keep on wondering what they do wrong. If you look at the professional traders, you will find that they place their trades, not like the herds.
