## Summary

This video addresses the psychological barriers that prevent traders from achieving consistent profitability, focusing on the fear of entering trades. The presenter outlines five key factors that cause trading fear and provides actionable advice on how to overcome them, emphasizing the importance of knowledge, risk management, and emotional discipline.

### Key Points

- **Fear of Trading: The Main Obstacle** [00:03] — Fear of trading is the primary reason traders fail to achieve stable income. It leads to premature exits, holding losing positions, and deviating from strategy.
- **Root Cause: Lack of Knowledge** [01:18] — Fear stems from not knowing what to do. A detailed trading strategy covering coin selection, entry points, stop loss, take profit, and position behavior eliminates uncertainty and builds confidence.
- **Overestimating Risks** [03:16] — Trading with amounts that are significant to the trader creates fear. Only trade with money you can afford to lose, and ensure losses don't impact your lifestyle.
- **Risk Management: 1% Rule** [06:38] — Risk 1% of your deposit per trade. Adjust position size based on stop loss distance to maintain this risk level. Overestimating risks leads to holding losing trades and fear.
- **Reporting to Others** [08:06] — Feeling accountable to others (subscribers, friends, family) creates fear of losing. Trade for yourself, not for others' approval, to maintain emotional calm.
- **Trying to Be Right All the Time** [10:20] — The desire to always be right leads to holding losing trades and waiting for perfect setups. Accept that losing trades are normal and trade based on facts, not ideals.
- **Competing with Others** [13:34] — Comparing your results with other traders leads to overestimating risks and making mistakes. Focus on your own strategy and risk management.

### Conclusion

To overcome trading fear, traders must build knowledge, adhere to strict risk management, avoid reporting to others, accept losses, and stop competing with others. Implementing these five factors will improve trading results and emotional stability.

to open trades?  How to remove the fear [music] of trading?  This is the main reason why you haven’t yet achieved a stable, good income from trading. In this video, I'll cover this topic in as much detail as possible and give you specific
steps to start developing your trading skills.  Your income grew and trading became your main source of income.  The first thing I want to say is how fear, the fear of transactions, generally influences trading results.  Of course
, they have a negative impact.  You're afraid to enter into a deal, afraid to make a mistake.  If suddenly the deal starts to go against you, you see a minus, you cover it ahead of time or, even worse, sit it out.  When the coin starts to
move up a little or stays at your entry point for a little longer, you start to worry and close your position prematurely.  And when the coin starts to show at least some plus, then you exit ahead of time, without waiting for take
If this sounds familiar to you, then you really do have fear and anxiety about trading.  This, of course, leads to losses, unjustified actions and trading not according to strategy.  Therefore, you need to remove fear and anxiety so that you
remove fear and anxiety so that you can develop further. traders with this very request: "How to remove fear from trading? After all, it's
scary to enter a trade. [music] There's some kind of fear, uncertainty. And the first place where the roots grow is because a person doesn't know what he needs to do. That is, he has a small amount of knowledge, [music] and
because of this, he develops fear and uncertainty. If you don't know what exactly you should do, then, of course, you will be afraid, because [music] it's as if you're stepping into an empty hole and don't understand
music] this. But when you already have knowledge, experience, you know how you need to trade a deal, what you need to do, then it's clear that you will do everything confidently. Therefore, in order to avoid fear, you need to learn
completely, know in as much detail as possible what you need to do, that is, your strategy,  It should be described in as much detail as possible. Coin selection, formation selection, entry point, stop loss, take profit, position behavior. And it's
precisely this knowledge of your trading strategy that will give you see that you have it all fully written down, you're following these steps,
doing everything according to the rules, and you're right. In this position, you deviate, you lose; if you follow the rules, you make a profit. All trading strategies, including my trading strategy for decisive places, can be found in our "Puzachy" team, where you can find
training materials and complete instructions on how to trade correctly. I'll leave a link to the " Puzachy" team in the description under the video. The second point when fear and anxiety of trading arises is when a trader overestimates their risks and enters into large
volumes, that is, enters into an amount that is significant for them. And therefore, of course, it's scary to lose a lot of money. Therefore, always remember
a lot of money. Therefore, always remember that it's important to trade only with an amount that you are prepared to lose, an amount that you don't mind losing. This amount should be sensitive to you.  But it's not like you lose it and then you don't eat. You
can't pay the rent, you've cut back somehow, you won't buy anything for yourself . No, this amount should, it just feels like, Yeah, it's nice, it's unpleasant, but it shouldn't affect your life. Therefore, always
adhere to the correct risks. Choose the amounts that will be comfortable for you. Let's say you earn $1,000 a month, you spend $300 on rent, $200 on food, and another
$200 on other expenses. So you have $300, you put $100 aside, $100 somewhere else. So, you can set aside $100-$200 for your deposit. And if you trade according to risks, everything is
correct, then in this case, for example, in a good month, you will earn 30%, $100 is $30, friend  100 is 60 dollars, and you have a salary of 1,000 dollars. 30 + 60 dollars added to your salary of 1,000
dollars is 3-6% additional to your salary. This is a pretty significant amount. Well, with these 30-60 dollars you can at least buy something. This is a plus. And if you trade in the negative,
plus. And if you trade in the negative, well, say, 10%, yes, that will be -10-20 dollars. Well, a little unpleasant, but not critically, it does not affect your life in any way . I am talking about a month's trading, that is, results for a month.
These are comfortable amounts with such an income , which you can trade. Therefore, if you earn 1,000 dollars, you do not need to put this same 1,000 dollars on deposit and trade. If you make money there, yes, it will be very
nice, very good. But if you are a beginner, you don’t know anything, you don’t know anything  If you know how, then it's clear that you're more likely to lose. And if you already lose, then, well, let's say, within the risk limit, you'll lose $100.
risk limit, you'll lose $100. Okay, that's even painful, but not directly critical. But it's important to understand that you're a beginner. And there's a high probability of getting screwed and, in general, a high probability of losing your deposit. Imagine you're down $5,
minus $1,000, what's that even like? You worked for a month, earned $1,000, and then lost it trading. This shouldn't happen. It's clear that when trading such large sums, you 'll develop a fear of trading. It's
simply inevitable. Therefore, of course, if you want to do everything correctly, calmly, and to really get good results, you must always [music] good results, you must always [music] remember that your volumes, your
remember that your volumes, your deposit, your income will always be equal to deposit, your income will always be equal to your knowledge, your experience. And therefore, if you don't have the knowledge, don't have the experience, we trade small amounts. As soon as we
gain knowledge and experience, we can Trade with larger amounts. Therefore, you need to trade with amounts that are comfortable for you, so that you don't have fear and anxiety. The next, third stage is our risk management. If a person overestimates
the risks, deviates from the rules, and our risks are supposed to be 1% [music] of the deposit per trade. If you have a deposit of $100 and your stop on the trade is 0.5%, then in this case you should enter the second leverage of
$200. This way, you retain the risk of 1% (1 dollar of the deposit) per trade . If, however, your stop on the trade is 2%, then in this case, on the contrary, you should 2%, then in this case, on the contrary, you should enter the fifth leverage of $50 at zero
. This way, with a stop of 2% of the trade, you also retain the risk of 1% (1 dollar of the deposit) per trade. And if you start playing around, overestimating the risks, then it's
clear that, let's say, you entered an increased volume, your top there will already be 5%, 10% of the deposit  per trade, then in this scenario, when the coin starts to slide, you won't
want to close this stop because it's abnormally large, and you'll sit it out, waiting for the coin to roll back, return, and start making you green or at least breakeven. But if that moment doesn't
come, you'll simply liquidate. Therefore, because of this, your trading system is disrupted, and fear and anxiety begin to appear. The fourth factor that can cause fear and anxiety about trading is when you start
reporting to someone. For example, you run a channel and you need to report to your subscribers how much you've earned and how your trades performed. Or you earned and how your trades performed. Or you told your friends, "Look, I'm trading,
these are my results, I'm achieving these results." Or maybe your parents are watching you, or maybe some acquaintances, or maybe someone nearby in the apartment, like this...  Well, he's just in the room, walking around,
keeping an eye on you. Or you're keeping some kind of public record because you have to report to someone, and you develop fear, a fear of
screwing up. But in trading, a losing trade is normal. And you develop a fear of a losing trade. And so, when you enter a trade, according to your strategy, you can enter it, set a good stop, set a good take profit. But
if the coin starts going against you, you 'll be looking at a loss, and you'll have a big emotional background. You won't want to close this loss, because you have to report to other people [music] what other people will think of you
. If you close the loss, they'll think you're a loser, [music] you don't know how to trade, you're not succeeding, and you develop this sense of responsibility to others, so they have to report to you like this. And
it  It will keep going down, down, down. You'll again come to the point where you don't want to close the loss because you want to show a profitable trade. And what happens is that you start to overstay your welcome,
violating your trading strategy, and then this will lead either to a big loss or even liquidation. Therefore, again, you should always trade in a calm, emotional state. You don't need to report to anyone, you don't need to keep statistics for anyone
, or anything else. You're trading for yourself, so you should trade calmly and perform the actions prescribed in your trading strategy. The fact is that these actions, well, if, of course, [music]
your strategy is statistically profitable, then, by following these actions according to the rules, you will also be statistically in the black. By the way, write in the comments what topic to make the next video about. The fifth factor that causes uncertainty,
factor that causes uncertainty, fear, and a fear of opening a trade—a fear of trading in general—is when a person tries to be right all the time. That is, tries to be right all the time. That is, In trading, it's reflected in the fact that a
trader constantly wants to make profitable trades, to be right all the time . So, he's marked everything down in his trading strategy, drawn it out, chosen the entry point, the stop-take. But if the trade
starts going into the red, he doesn't want to accept the scenario being cancelled, doesn't want to accept the fact that he was wrong, or the fact that, well, the trade simply didn't work out. And so he starts to sit it out, starts wanting
the trade to roll back into the black, and wants to close it in the black. He simply doesn't accept the fact that the trade didn't work out, that the scenario was cancelled. No, he sits there, sits there until the talk. Because of this,
that a person, uh, will constantly search for some super-perfect formation, for all the criteria to just align, for all the stars to align, and everyone ideal formations can be very, very rare. But the person
who waits for this perfect formation, he He sees that this ideal formation isn't there, it's not here and there, he looks, it's not there, it's not there, it's not there, and then this increasingly heated passion occurs, a cumulative
effect of fear appears, [music] like, look, how long have I been waiting for this ideal trade, this ideal formation. It's still not there, not there. It seems like a good formation, right? I could, in principle, enter, but, damn, no, I'll still wait for the
ideal one, because I've already waited so long , and now, should I just fall for an ordinary good formation , and the person will simply develop fear, a fear of making a trade . Therefore, this, again, will
not lead to anything good. Therefore, you need to understand that the ideal is very, very rare and you shouldn't wait for the ideal. You need to trade based on the facts. That's it, if there is something not an ideal candle, not an ideal formation, it's not a big
deal. The most important thing is to have the facts. The probability is more on your side for  That you take a profitable trade. That's enough, I wanted to trade super- perfect formations according to the book
formation, but it's just a good formation, I won't enter it. Bam, it worked. Then the next one, bam, worked, worked again, and again, and again , and again. But I didn't participate in all these formations because I was afraid that there would be
some crooked candle there, something there that wasn't quite the ideal level, or something there that came a little sharper than it should have. But this slight deviation is normal. The most important thing is that the facts are on your
side. Then the strategy will work, then the trades will close in the black. And not that there's some perfect formation according to the book, something you've come up with , something you've noted, [music] no.
trading that cause fear, uncertainty, fear of making a trade, and your results will immediately improve. Check this out and write in the comments how your results have increased over the past week
after you adjusted these five factors in your trading. Also, by the way, fear, uncertainty, and apprehension can appear when you compete with someone . For example, you have a deposit of $100, and someone has $1,000, and
you want to overtake him, to earn more, and as a result, you begin to overestimate the risks. Or, for example, it happens that several traders are working on the same formation, but these traders have different deposits. And again,
someone worked on $100, someone on $1,000, someone on $ 10,000. And these people who trade smaller volumes, they look [music] at those who trade larger volumes and see: "Look, I earned $10
dollars with this formation, and he earned 1,000 dollars.  How so?  We worked on the same formation, but the income was radically different.  And so a starts to get involved in the race, inflating risks,
increasing volumes, and starts looking for a bunch of different, usually new, formations simply to take the same income as the trader who
trades with a larger volume and a larger deposit.  As a result, due to this race, he makes a large number of mistakes. Risk-related errors.  with the volumes
[music] of the chase, with this constant rush to earn money faster, faster.  As a result, all this evokes a lot of emotions. [music] Again, the fear of making a mistake, the fear of becoming worse than someone, the fear of
showing a worse result, [music] than someone.  And ultimately, this all results in trading with a large number of mistakes. So, be sure to monitor yourself so that your trading does not include all the factors that I listed in this
