After much experience we can not say always there is a fault in trading. However our analysis should be weak or our entry in market can be wrong. Loss can be due to many reasons as it is a part of trading . We need to limit our loss so that our whole money will not go waste.

There is nothing like a main reason because it's a collection of reasons.
A person with no money management and lack of forex knowledge who wants to become a millionaire over night burns the account overnight.
Patience is the key for all

Yes there is blend of reasons for loss. Most traders loose due to less knowledge of trading, they want high and quick profits and having less skill to manage trades. Then emotions are also involve in it . You have to find what reason is with you.

Most of the time what trader do is they take risk more then they able to rescue it. They thought that they might earn more money by taking more risk. They trade with large size lot most of the time in a wrong time which is a big reason of getting lose. Most of the trader don’t define the start and stop timing. And some time bad lucks also is the reason of having lose.

You said correctly. More often people simply can not understand when it is necessary to take risks, and when on the contrary it is necessary to exercise caution. It comes with trading experience.

Beginners mostly fails and unable to achieve their target because of the lack of knowledge and experience. We should first make trading strategy and then follows it with full discipline so that we will be able to reduce the loss chances.

 

[Jeff Martinez]

“95% of all traders fail” is the most commonly used trading related statistic around the internet. Traders with up to a 10 years’ negative track record continue to trade. This suggest that day traders even continue to trade when they receive a negative signal regarding their ability. Poor individuals tend to spend a greater proportion of their income on lottery purchases and their demand for lottery increases with a decline in their income. Traders don’t learn about trading. “Trading to learn” is no more rational or profitable than playing roulette to learn for the individual investor

The reason of loss is that many of us was not able to make right entry and exit without proper attention over the market. We should first understand the market trend and news factors to minimize the loss and achieve our targets.
