Introduction: The Mind Behind the Market<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are two ways to enter the stock markets. Either you buy stocks for the long-term and hold them as an investment, or you can take positions for the short-term with small targets and book profits quickly. Both these styles are successful. But trading is the go-to style for thrill seekers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here, it is important to understand that this is the biggest mistake you can make. This is how most traders lose a fortune. Trading is not about seeking thrills. Rather, it is about the strategy and timing. Here comes the role of trading psychology<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
