Trading 212 teams up with trading expert David Jones for a series dedicated to the finer points of trading. First up is trading psychology and how hope and fear govern what traders think and do.

We discuss the importance of self-discipline regardless of whether you are trading gold, oil, forex or stocks. It is the fundamental building block of any trader’s decision-making process and the one thing that allows them to keep a cool head when indicators and trends don’t turn out as planned.

At Trading 212 we provide an execution only service. This video should not be construed as investment advice. Investments can fall and rise. Capital at risk. CFDs are higher risk because of leverage.
