$USD (USDindex.FX)$ Take a break, USD, let's rest for a few days before we rise again.

There's a saying goes: "Look forward with hope, not backward with regret."
Whatever happened, happened. There is no point in lingering on it.
That is a positive approach to life.
But is it right for investors to use it in the same way while making trades?
Some would argue that: "your past is your best teacher." It helps investors to avoid previous mistakes.
