How to overcome pre-trading jitters?
Been studying on and off for about a year now though I don't feel like I understand "everything" yet. I'm opening a micro account with $1,000 (thanks for the advice babypips). I am nervous about finally entering the markets, how did you guys overcome these pre-trading jitters? Did you have 'em at all?
Thanks!

Of course those pre-trading jitters are perfectly normal now that you're about to trade real money! And don't worry about not understanding everything yet. As long as you have a really good grasp of what works best for you (indicators, trade setups, etc) and you take time to study the movement of the markets then you should do fine. In my case, I read up on economic reports and market analysis before coming up with trade ideas so that I'm more or less confident with my trades.
Good luck!

One way to overcome your pre-trading jitters is by planning your trade wisely. You should not only take into consideration the technical set-up of the currency pair that you want to trade but also the underlying fundamental and sentimental aspects at that time.
