HoldWinnersCutLosers

😭 "Why Do I Always Hold Losing Trades… But Never the Winners?"
I used to ask myself this after almost every trade:

“Why am I sitting on losing positions for hours…
while closing winners after just 5 minutes?”
I thought I was cursed.
But the truth? It was just a pattern — a common one among traders without a real plan.

🔥 The Harsh Reality I Had to Face
Stop loss ≠ risk management.
Yep — I used to think that just using stop losses meant I was managing risk.

Wrong.

If your stop is based on fear instead of structure, here’s what happens:

❌ You place stops too tight — and get stopped out too early.
❌ You let losing trades run — hoping they'll “recover.”
❌ You react to fear, not data.
🧠 Why You Cut Winners and Hold Losers
It’s not bad luck — it’s lack of conviction.
And conviction only comes from clarity.
If you’re trading without:

A view of the higher time frame
A mapped-out market structure
A directional bias based on momentum…
Then you're flying blind.
You’ll panic on small drawdowns and cling to bad trades "just in case."

✅ Here’s How I Fixed It:
Zoom out: Use higher time frames to define the trend and key zones.
Let structure guide your stops — not your emotions.
Pre-plan your entries, exits, and take-profits.
No revenge trades. No hoping. Stick to the plan.
The truth is:
The market doesn’t care. But it does punish hesitation and emotional trading.

Once I started treating trades like strategic executions — not emotional events — everything changed.

I stopped clinging to losers.
I started riding winners with clarity and confidence.
