Many surveys suggest that a very good percentage of successful traders actively and strictly monitor their financial health. There is indeed a definite statical relation between success in trading and active monitoring and management of finances. These include various investment accounts and cash positions which might be in different trading accounts and banks.\u00a0 Alternative investments like cryptocurrency, real estate, and other similar things. A lack of discipline when it comes to financial health is a sign of a future unsuccessful trader.<\/p>\n<p>But what might be the reason behind this? studies suggest that a trader who actively studies and manages their overall financial health will make more level-headed decisions during the time of trade instead of giving in to the emotions of the moment. Having a good grasp of your financial health will reduce the panic when things are not going well. Keeping your emotions in check will enable you to make better trading decisions. So irrespective of your present position in the trading journey develop the good habit of regularly and thoroughly monitoring your finances and managing them accordingly.\u00a0 This can be done using an Excel sheet.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Understanding Your Trading Profile\ud83e\udd11<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The next step to being a consistently profitable trader is to understand your trading profile. For this, you have to take two things into account.<\/p>\n<p>The first thing is the funds available. This means the total amount of liquid funds and investments (this includes cash as well as emergency funds) that you have. You don&#8217;t have to be willing to deposit or invest this entire amount. But knowing this amount is crucial for any understanding of your financial health.<\/p>\n<p>The next thing is the time available. This is the amount of time available in hours for a trader to invest in trading or an investment undertaking. This includes the time you take to research and learn about trade opportunities and also the actual time you spend on trading. Once you have both these figured you have to decide which among the following will become your trading profile.<\/p>\n<table width=\"661\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"37\"><strong>No<\/strong>.<\/td>\n<td width=\"208\"><strong>Trading Profile<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"161\"><strong>Investable Funds<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"255\"><strong>Time dedicated to trading per day<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"37\">1<\/td>\n<td width=\"208\">High Funds \u2013 High Time<\/td>\n<td width=\"161\">More than $30,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"255\">more than 2 hours<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"37\">2<\/td>\n<td width=\"208\">High Funds \u2013 Low Time<\/td>\n<td width=\"161\">More than $30,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"255\">less than 2 hours<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"37\">3<\/td>\n<td width=\"208\">Medium Funds \u2013 High Time<\/td>\n<td width=\"161\">Less than $30,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"255\">more than 2 hours<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"37\">4<\/td>\n<td width=\"208\">Medium Funds \u2013 Low Time<\/td>\n<td width=\"161\">Less than $30,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"255\">less than 2 hours<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"37\">5<\/td>\n<td width=\"208\">Low Funds \u2013 High Time<\/td>\n<td width=\"161\">Less than $5,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"255\">more than 2 hours<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"37\">6<\/td>\n<td width=\"208\">Low Funds \u2013 Low Time<\/td>\n<td width=\"161\">Less than $5,000<\/td>\n<td width=\"255\">less than 2 hours<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Getting a comprehensive trader profile is much more complex.

Trading is no different. Setting a clear goal helps you to form a wise career path and then stay committed to it. Experienced traders suggest you set such goals. To do this. what you have to do first is to study the returns profile as well as the success rate of the traders that have similar trading profiles as yours. Now you have to compare this data with your current return profile. Doing this will help you clear and objective career goals. But getting such data is the actual struggle a trader faces. Helpful data collected from a study is provided below for your convenience.<\/p>\n<table width=\"755\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<td rowspan=\"2\"><strong>Trader Profile<\/strong><\/td>\n<td rowspan=\"2\"><strong>Trader Count<\/strong><\/td>\n<td colspan=\"4\"><strong>Annual Returns <\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Highest <\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>Average <\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>Median <\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>Lowest <\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Low Funds \u2013 High Time<\/td>\n<td>546<\/td>\n<td>300%<\/td>\n<td>-11%<\/td>\n<td>-24%<\/td>\n<td>-100%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Low Funds \u2013 Low Time<\/td>\n<td>242<\/td>\n<td>24%<\/td>\n<td>3%<\/td>\n<td>1%<\/td>\n<td>-89%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Medium Funds \u2013 High Time<\/td>\n<td>1343<\/td>\n<td>55%<\/td>\n<td>10%<\/td>\n<td>4%<\/td>\n<td>-34%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Medium Funds \u2013 Low Time<\/td>\n<td>1232<\/td>\n<td>27%<\/td>\n<td>12%<\/td>\n<td>7%<\/td>\n<td>-22%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>High Funds \u2013 High Time<\/td>\n<td>756<\/td>\n<td>47%<\/td>\n<td>13%<\/td>\n<td>6%<\/td>\n<td>-32%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>High Funds \u2013 Low Time<\/td>\n<td>1062<\/td>\n<td>24%<\/td>\n<td>17%<\/td>\n<td>8%<\/td>\n<td>-28%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>But how do we use the data provided here for setting our trading goals? A few suggestions are made below using the data given in this table.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>If the present annual returns for your profile are around the median then you have to aim to attain the highest returns in the coming 12 months.<\/li>\n<li>If your present annual returns are much lower than the median range then you&#8217;ve to attain that range within the next 12 months.<\/li>\n<li>If your present annual returns are already above the highest range then you have to aim to gain 50% more than your present level of returns.<\/li>\n<li>If your trader profile is Low Funds \u2013 High Time category then you have to aim at reaching the highest returns in this category within the next 12 months as you may have noticed that even the median returns in this category are negative.<\/li>\n<li>Another interesting factor that needs to be noticed is the fact that traders who tend to spend less time in the market while making trade decisions seem to be more profitable on average than the people who spend more time on it. The less time a person spends on the trade market the investment choices are more passive and it can be seen that the probability of positive returns is higher for passive investment choices rather than active investment choices. So, whatever your trading profile category might be or even how much time you allot to trading make sure that a portion of your investments are passive.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/entri.app\/course\/stock-market-course\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Enrol in the Entri Stock market course to become a successful and confident trader!<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Master Trading Approach Suiting Your Goals\ud83d\udcb9<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The key to having consistent profits is mastering trading approaches that give you the best chance of earning the highest profits.
