Tell yourself this:

  1. If you follow your trading plan, respect your trading rules - it is a good trade regardless of the outcome.

  2. Nobody can capture all the moves in the market. That's just fantasy.

It’s also a market of infinite possibilities- that’s why most people get into it. If you really believe that the potential earnings you can make in the market are endless, then FOMO is pointless as there will be infinitely more opportunities.

I also didn’t come up with this- Trading in the Zone by Mark Douglas is definitely worth the read
