## Resource

Forex trading psychology can have a major impact on how well you follow your trading plan. In this episode of Let’s Talk Forex, we look at four emotions that commonly influence traders: fear, greed, FOMO and revenge trading. We explain how fear can lead to closing trades too early, why greed can change your risk and profit targets, how FOMO creates pressure to chase price, and why revenge trading can turn a loss into an emotional decision. We also introduce the PAUSE framework, a practical five-step process for recognising emotional decisions before they become actions. We cover position sizing, loss limits, journaling, and how to distinguish a genuine change in your setup from a change in your emotional state. Finally, we explain why good trading psychology isn’t about becoming emotionless. It’s about building a process that helps you make more disciplined decisions when those emotions inevitably appear.
