#TradingPsychology 75% of Traders Go Broke: The Shocking Math Behind It 📉💸
Trading seems like a quick route to wealth, but most traders lose money. In fact, 75% fail due to math, psychology, and lack of preparation.
**The Brutal Math of Trading** 📊
1. **Loss Recovery**: A 50% loss requires a 100% gain to break even. The more you lose, the harder it is to recover. 🔻
2. **Fees**: Small fees add up. Paying $500/month in commissions can wipe out 60% of a $10,000 account in a year. 💰
3. **Leverage**: Leverage amplifies both gains and losses, putting your account at serious risk. ⚡
**Psychological Pitfalls** 🧠
- **Fear** makes you exit too early, locking in losses. 😟
- **Greed** causes overtrading or holding losing positions too long. 💥
- **Overconfidence** and **revenge trading** often lead to bigger losses. 😤
