Hi, I’m KK from Malaysia. I have been in forex trading for more than 15 years. When I started trading, there weren’t any prop firms, and I traded a personal account with brokers. I paid for and attended two technical analysis courses but ended up losing money. Then I gave up forex trading for a couple of years, and later came back again. Same process—I ended up losing money again and stopped. This is my third time coming back. I found out about prop firms and went into it instead of trading with my own broker. This is because I can trade with bigger capital, and I started to learn more about technical analysis, doing backtesting, and so on.
I have been trading for 10 years.
Emotions and psychology in trading, revenge trading, poor risk management, and overtrading.
It took me more than a year to become a consistent trader recently. Have a trading plan, set a maximum loss per day, take good setup entries, and be disciplined and patient. Risk management is the key that helped me survive a one-week losing streak.
My strongest psychological strength is resilience. I’ve failed many prop firm challenges and lost personal funds, but I never gave up. Each failure taught me more about my weaknesses — especially overtrading and impatience. I developed resilience by journaling every trade, reviewing my mistakes honestly, and reminding myself of my long-term goal. Now, I approach the markets with more humility, focus, and emotional stability.
Reduce lot size, be patient to wait for a setup or set a pending order. Scale in with half the size of the first trade lot if I see a trend forming, like a candlestick respecting my EMA. Move the SL to breakeven or lock in some profit before scaling in.
