"I will become a successful trader." If you ever had that thought and then began(by whatever route you took) to make money in forex…you used the Secret whether you knew it or not.

The biggest benefit of the law of attraction for forex trading is that it helps you to have a positive mindset about possibilities for success. By believing that you'll be successful, you become successful.

Only problem I see with this is that, one day what you do in trading forex is right/correct/positive, but you do the same the next day and it will not work. It is about probabilities, so it is not so simple as :

There is a Forex Secret. The secret is not only to record your mistakes but also to record what you did “Right”. Repeating over and over again the “Right” and avoiding the “Wrong” is the real Forex Secret. That’s how you excel not only in Forex but in anything in life.

Rather, you have to find what usually is right most days.

just seems right to me, there is no 100% right or wrong…I do believe that being in a positive zone is good, you need to be positive so when that 'moment' comes you are ready to pull the trigger. I you are not in the zone you hesitate and miss then you get emotional and chase.

The Law of Attraction is a rule I live by and my trading follows within that context. The Law of Attraction is knowing that trading will provide the desired outcome. That you proceed with enough diligence and learn to trade proficiently — and ultimately successfully.

There are many books, etc… that delve into this science. I would recommend Napoleon Hill's Think and Grow Rich, Charles D. Wattles The Science of Getting Rich, among many others fine books.

Once your mind is right, you can begin to learn to trade and be successful. It cannot rule every single trade individually, but all your trade combined.

It has changed my life and helped me become a successful trader.

Nice work FP,
Sticking to my trading plan as painful as it can be at times has returned over 600% profit in the last 12 months on my trading account. Belief in yourself and your system will get you through the tough times that are associated with trading.
Great posts everyone

While I agree that as traders the most valuable thing we can do is to evaluate our trades. However I don't agree with your interpretation of the Secret. I don't think anywhere does it say just forget the past. I think it just says focus on what you have and the positives in your life rather than focusing on the negatives.

Focus on your abilities rather than the weaknesses.

Also thanks for your signals, while I don't use them on their own I do use them as a confirmation for mine and would love to learn more about your trading style if you ever feel like teaching it.
