#TradingMistakes101
As a beginner trader, my biggest mistake was relying on intuition rather than strategy. I was overconfident after making a profit once or twice — then entered the market without a plan, hoping my “feeling” was right. The result? Huge losses, and my confidence turned into frustration.
From that, I learned that trading is not about guessing the direction of prices, but about discipline, risk management, and consistency. I started to record every transaction, set stop-losses, and only enter the market with logical reasons that could be explained, not just based on “feelings.”
My advice for beginners: don’t rush to make a profit. Focus on building a system, not chasing instant gains.
