Before any strategy or setup, I ask one thing: is my personal financial foundation strong enough to support this trade?
In this reflection, I explore the direct impact that personal finance management has on trading performance — not as an abstract idea, but as a daily reality. When financial clarity is missing, emotional decision-making creeps in. When it’s present, I trade with more patience, discipline, and perspective.
This is not trading advice. It’s a caution to those who see trading as a way out, rather than something built upon stable ground.
Guess what? I am on a Demo Account. I will keep on trading on a Demo Account until I know that I have a solid risk management plan and a trading methodology that both will give me consistent profits.
The whole Idea with personal finance management in forex trading is to know whether you can afford trading and once you know the answer to that what is your game plan.
Just a quick hint.. If your answer is no; meaning that today you cannot afford trading, don't be discouraged, there is still a plan that can be designed. Actually, I think the ones who cannot afford trading are in a better positions than those who can.
The ones who cannot afford trading today, can easily start learning without having the itch to open a live account.
