Trading fears demystified: expert strategies for overcoming barriers from global broker Octa


KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA – Media OutReach Newswire – 8 November 2024 – Trading offers a pathway to financial growth, yet for many beginners, fear of loss, mistakes, and market unpredictability can create mental blocks. Octa, a broker with globally recognised licences, explores common trading fears, breaks down their causes, and presents practical methods to manage them. These insights will help traders build management and confidence-boosting strategies, creating a balanced and well-informed trading experience.

Octa

Entering the trading world can feel like stepping into uncharted waters, especially with fears like potential financial loss, making the wrong decisions, or missing out on profitable opportunities. These initial hesitations are common for novice traders and often stem from the natural uncertainties accompanying financial markets. By learning to recognise and manage these fears, traders can cultivate a level-headed approach, helping reduce impulsive decisions that often lead to losses. This disciplined mindset allows beginners to make more thoughtful, calculated choices, paving the way for a more resilient and confident trading journey. Here are the top four fears and approaches to overcoming them.

1# Fear of Losing Money
The possibility of losing money often looms large for beginners, especially in volatile markets. With every price fluctuation, new traders may feel that a misstep could lead to significant losses. This apprehension is completely natural—no one wants to see their savings diminish due to market ups and downs. To overcome this fear, it’s essential to focus on risk management.

Try a practical approach: Setting clear trading limits, establishing stop-loss orders, and allocating no more than five percent of the total account balance per trade are some ways to reduce risks. Moreover, advanced traders put risk management at the core of their strategy. To obtain the necessary skills, they use various webinars and online training sessions as a source of valuable insights, best practices and education resources. It’s best to learn from experts representing global brokers like Octa to ensure the data is complete, relevant, and based on hands-on experience.

2# Fear of Missing Out (FOMO)
FOMO—the fear of missing out—can be particularly challenging. The rapid pace of trading and constant news about market highs can create a sense of urgency, pushing traders to make impulsive decisions. However, heedlessly chasing profits is risky and often leads to rushed trades that don’t align with a solid strategy.

To manage FOMO effectively, start by developing a disciplined trading strategy and commit to following it. Establishing a clear plan that outlines when and why to enter or exit a trade can help keep impulsive decisions at bay. It is essential to base choices on careful analysis rather than market hype. For example, if a particular stock or currency is trending, focusing on its historical data and performance metrics instead of media buzz can offer a more balanced perspective, enabling traders to make informed decisions rather than reactive ones.

3# Fear of Making Mistakes
For many beginners, the fear of making mistakes can lead to ‘analysis paralysis,’ where the worry of making the wrong move keeps them from acting at all. Mistakes in trading are almost inevitable, yet they’re also some of the best teachers. Embracing the learning process can transform hesitation into growth.

Building confidence through practice: Utilising demo accounts offers a low-stakes environment that helps traders learn by doing. Demo accounts allow them to simulate real market scenarios without risking actual funds. This practical approach enables beginners to experiment with different strategies, learn from mistakes, and develop the confidence to make decisions in live trading. Moreover, engaging in a demo environment before committing funds helps alleviate anxiety and builds a foundation of skills that translate directly to live trading.

#4 Fear of Being Wrong
The fear of being wrong often keeps traders from adjusting their strategies even when the market demands flexibility. It can be challenging for beginners to acknowledge that an initial analysis might need revisiting, yet adaptability is crucial to long-term success.

Reframing mistakes as growth opportunities: It can be empowering to perceive errors not as failures but as stepping stones towards improvement. By treating mistakes as part of the learning journey, traders can gain resilience and cultivate a growth mindset. For instance, a poorly timed entry in a trade may highlight an overlooked trend or pattern, serving as a valuable lesson for future decisions. This continuous improvement mindset is invaluable, helping traders adapt as market conditions shift.

Trading doesn’t have to be daunting. By recognizing and addressing the natural fears of trading—the fear of losing money, missing out, making mistakes, or simply being wrong—beginners can cultivate resilience and discipline, which are critical for long-term success. Practical tools like continuous learning, setting stop-loss limits, managing FOMO through a structured plan, and practising on demo accounts are key steps toward gaining confidence. Each small step builds experience and skill, helping beginners progress from cautious newcomers to informed, capable traders equipped to face the market’s challenges confidently.

Application for clinical trial of AIM Vaccine’s human diploid rabies vaccine

An iterative process is highly effective in increasing the value of large items

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 8 November 2024 – AIM Vaccine (06660.HK), the world’s second largest supplier of rabies vaccines, announced on 7th November that the application for clinical trial of the iterative-process highly-effective human diploid rabies vaccine developed by the Company has been submitted to the Center for Drug Evaluation (CDE) of National Medical Products Administration of China recently.

According to the announcement, the i iterative-process highly-effective human diploid rabies vaccine developed by AIM Vaccine shows an iterative upgrade compared to the traditional human diploid rabies vaccines of the first generation in many aspects.

The iterative-process highly-effective human diploid rabies vaccine developed by the Company has taken the lead in breaking through the technical bottlenecks of low virus titer and low yield in the traditional process. It has been optimized and innovated in the purification process with the product quality and safety significantly improved.
Compared with the number of traditional rabies vaccinations, this product developed by the Group can be vaccinated with either “five-needle approach”, “simple four-needle approach” or “2-1-1 four-needle approach”, which is more flexible and convenient.
There are two kinds of rabies vaccines, namely the serum-containing rabies vaccine and the serum-free rabies vaccine. However, no serum-free rabies vaccine has been registered or marketed yet. The mainstream Vero cell rabies vaccine and human diploid rabies vaccine currently available in the market are serum-containing rabies vaccines.

Compared with the traditional Vero cell rabies vaccines, human diploid rabies vaccine uses human diploid cells instead of Vero cells, which are homologous to humans and have a natural safety advantage. The human diploid rabies vaccine currently available in the market is 3 to 5 times more expensive than the Vero cell rabies vaccine, with higher product added value.
According to the announcement, AIM Vaccine has completed the construction of an iterative-process high-efficiency human diploid rabies vaccine workshop that meets international standards, and has completed the production of commercial-scale Phase III clinical trial samples, which is capable of producing this product in large scale.
China is the world’s largest rabies vaccine market. According to the 2024 interim performance report of AIM Vaccine, the approved lot release volume of China’s rabies vaccines increased from 58.80 million in 2019 to 78.50 million in 2021, representing an increase of 33.6%. It is expected that the market scale will increase to RMB22.0 billion by 2030, partially due to the iteration of rabies vaccine products upgrade. With the expansion of the pet market and the popularization of pre-exposure immunity knowledge, it is expected that the demand for human rabies vaccines will continue to grow in the future.

Yung Kee Restaurant Celebrates 82nd Anniversary Embracing Diverse Culinary Cultures

Redefining the Golden Years with “Care Food”

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 7 November 2024 – Yung Kee Restaurant (“Yung Kee“), renowned for its authentic Cantonese cuisine and charcoal-grilled delicacies, has grown alongside Hong Kong for over eight decades. On 10 November 2024, it will mark a significant milestone of its 82nd anniversary. This year, Yung Kee has organized multiple initiatives dedicated to social welfare and environmental projects, actively giving back to society in celebration of its anniversary. Continuing its tradition of connecting the world through exquisite dishes and promoting mutual care, Yung Kee unies people through its culinary delights.

Established in 1942 and located in the heart of Hong Kong Island’s Central District, the iconic Yung Kee offers causal and fine dining, serving preserved family recipes for charcoal-grilled barbecued meats and Cantonese classics. Not only does it preserve the true essence of Cantonese cuisine and the authentic culinary culture of Hong Kong, it has also become a popular dining choice for local residents and tourists. Yung Kee upholds its core values, crafting each dish with carefully selected premium ingredients and cooked with exquisite culinary techniques to present customers with classic and skillfully prepared delicacies. Staying true to the founder’s vision, Yung Kee always treats guests with sincerity, offering a homely and welcoming service.

8 “Care Food” Dishes to Reunite Elderly Customers with Their Family

For over 80 years, Yung Kee has been a place where families share cherished dining traditions. As time goes by, many of our loyal customers have aged and may face challenges like chewing or swallowing, making it harder to enjoy meals with their loved ones. Therefore, Yung Kee has decided to launch the “Care Food” (also known as “Soft Meal”) program. The aim is to create a joyful time for individuals in need to be able to dine together with their families, sharing the happiness of enjoying delightful dishes at the same table.

Yung Kee has spent over 6 months preparing the “Care Food” program, following the requirements of the International Dysphagia Diet Standardisation Initiative (IDDSI), and carefully designing a menu of soft food dishes. As a result, we are proud to present 8 authentic “Care Food” dishes, covering 3 different levels, to meet the needs of different individuals.

“Stir-fried Fresh Milk and Egg White with Scallop” ($320/Regular) is a level 6 (soft and bite-sized) dish. Yung Kee selects scallops from Western Australia, which have a softer texture compared to regular scallops and therefore more suitable for creating “soft meal.” Their fresh and sweet flavor is more pronounced, especially when paired with rich and smooth fresh milk, offering a rich layering of flavors and textures.

“Stir-fried Local Fresh Beef Rump with Bitter Gourd, Garlic and Black Bean” ($280/Regular) is another level 6 (soft and bite-sized) dish. While it may seem simple to prepare, achieving “Care Food” standards requires finely dicing the bitter melon and beef. The subtle bitterness of the bitter melon complements the rich black bean garlic sauce, and the delicate plating creates a visually appealing dish reminiscent of a “Chinese Tartare.”

“Steamed Pork Cake with Water Chestnut and Salted Egg” ($220/Regular) is a level 5 (minced and moist) dish. Using local fresh pork collar, the freshness of the pork is retained. Extra preparation techniques are applied to make the meat patty softer, enabling individuals with specific needs to savor its flavor.

“Baked Crab Meat, Potato, Cauliflower and Onion in Crab Shell” ($220/Piece) is also a level 5 (minced and moist) dish. The chef meticulously shreds and minces the crab meat, combining it with mashed potatoes and cauliflower to create a white sauce for baking, resulting in a classic and delicious dish.

“Signature Charcoal Roasted Goose Leg” ($400/Leg) is a level 4 (pureed/optimized texture modified diet) dish. Charcoal-grilled roast goose is one of Yung Kee classic signature dishes. This time, it has been specially crafted into a care food dish, preserving the aroma of goose oil and the roast goose meat, allowing guests to savour the authentic flavour of the dish.

“Steamed Shrimp and Pork Dumpling” ($68/4 pieces) is a level 4 (pureed/optimized texture modified diet) dish. It uses Canadian prime ribeye and combines with premium dried scallops to enhance the unique flavour.

“Steamed Shrimp and Bamboo Shoot Dumpling” ($72/3 pieces) is a level 4 (pureed/optimized texture modified diet) dish. It combines the refreshing taste of bamboo shoot with the freshness of shrimp to create a rich texture in the mouth. Designed to resemble traditional shrimp dumplings, it features a delicate appearance, providing customers with both a visual and gustatory experience.

“Sesame Cake” ($60/3 pieces) is the final level 4 (pureed/optimized texture modified diet) dish. It uses high-quality black sesame seeds to produce a rich and delicious flavour and a smooth texture and sweetness. This dessert serves as the perfect ending to the care food menu.

Yung Kee’s “Care Food” dishes will officially launch on 1st December. We look forward to customers joining us in the upcoming festive days, especially during the Winter Solstice and Chinese New Year, to dine at Yung Kee with family members who may have swallowing difficulties. To ensure smooth arrangement and service, we kindly ask customers to make reservations one day in advance.

Ms. Yvonne Kam, CFO of Yung Kee said, “Yung Kee is proud to introduce our ‘Care Food’ program, promoting Hong Kong’s soft meal culture. We aim to provide delicious and dignified dining experiences for individuals with chewing and swallowing difficulties as well as elderly, enabling them to enjoy their golden years. Through over 80 years of dinning service at Yung Kee, we are adding a touch of diverse and inclusive culinary culture.”

Yung Kee is participating in the Hong Kong Council of Social Service (HKCSS) “Care Food Restaurant Incubation Program,” in collaboration with The Project Futurus, a social enterprise that specializes in texture modified soft meal and a strategic partner of the program. Over the past six months, Yung Kee’s chefs and frontline staff have worked closely with The Project Futurus, engaging in a series of workshops focused on soft meal training, menu design, and operational improvements. As the first traditional Cantonese restaurant in Hong Kong to be dysphagia-friendly, Yung Kee will also participate in the “Gerontech and Innovation Expo cum Summit (GIES) 2024,” taking place from November 21 to 24, to promote local care food culture.

Expanding New Concept “Yung’s Bistro” with a Focus on Sustainability

Yung’s Bistro, a refreshing new concept by Yung Kee, has just celebrated the grand opening of its second location at Taikoo Place at the end of last month. The new location demonstrates a strong environmental commitment in both design and operations, showcasing the brand’s green philosophy through the use of various sustainable and eco-friendly materials.

From the initial planning to the final completion, the new restaurant has adhered to the top standards of sustainable development, becoming the first local Chinese restaurant in Taikoo Place to receive the “Green Kitchen” certification. The restaurant showcases outstanding achievements in waste reduction, plastic minimization, and carbon footprint reduction and is currently pursuing BEAM Plus certification.

Furthering its environmental-friendly initiatives, the restaurant has collaborated with renowned local fashion designer Mr. Dorian Ho on an innovative upcycling project. In addition to creating staff uniforms, Dorian transformed unused tablecloths into stylish eco-friendly bags, offered as gifts to guests at the grand opening event.

Heading towards the 83rd Anniversary Next Year

Yung Kee development momentum continues in 2025, with the upcoming transformation project spanning the sixth to ninth floors of the Yung Kee Building. This four-level project is set to debut in early next year, adding brilliance to the 82nd anniversary initiatives. Despite facing numerous challenges in recent years, Yung Kee remains true to its original aspirations. As it approaches its 83rd year next year, the restaurant is always dedicated to serving Hong Kong people with the most sincere and authentic Cantonese cuisine, safeguarding the local culinary culture.
