Forex Trader Behavior [Infographic]

How wins and losses change traders

We recently did a deep dive on research about forex traders. Now, we’re bringing you some of the insights we learned so you can better understand the traders who invest with you.

The best way to give your clients what they need is to understand their preferences and behaviors. The data in this week’s infographic shows how forex traders change their trading behavior after they experience success or failure in the market.

It’s based on the research from two articles: Do retail FX traders learn? and Uninformative Feedback and Risk Taking: Evidence from Retail Forex Trading.
